You’re probably already on the FaceTime train.
Chats Between Two Apple Products (Mac, iPhone, and iPad): FaceTimeĪpple users! FaceTime is where it’s at for you guys, but I’ll be honest: I didn’t have to tell you that. Even if you don’t, you can sign in with Facebook if you want…but if you have Facebook, please just refer back to the previous section of this guide. If you’re a Windows user, Skype is the obvious choice here: it comes bundled with Windows now that Microsoft owns it, and it’s become synonomous enough with video chat that basically everyone has a Skype account. If you don’t have Facebook (or are trying to chat with someone who doesn’t), no worries! Continue on for the various platform-based tools.
If you and the person you want to chat with both have Facebook, it’s really a no brainer. And, since nearly everyone is on Facebook, they probably already have the requisite app, which is available pretty much any platform- Android and iOS have dedicated mobile apps for Messenger, and computer users can just leverage the web version of Messenger.
