So you may have to call them first, even if they are a favorited contact.
- rooster8 4y agoThank you! TIL that I never initiate calls with the most important people in my life.
- bee_rider 4y agoCan meet in person, after all, right?
- dereg 4y agoSeems well thought out. It prevents someone from maliciously adding their phone number to, say, your mom in Contacts.
- KennyBlanken 4y agoIt's more that there are plenty of people who have others in their contacts, who rarely or never want to receive facetime messages from said contacts.
- oceanplexian 4y agoIs this really a feature people want? I can’t imagine any situation where I’d want to allow unsolicited FaceTime calls (99% of the time it’s some kind of spammer)
- e12e 4y agoThis is a strange one. Presumably a few people in the target group for this would know a few people also in the target group - how do they intend to bootstrap trust? Or is it just a calls b, b's device reject call - b can now call a? Then after b call a, a can also call b? If so, it sounds like a very complicated way of marking contacts as "super favorites"?
- minerva23 4y agoYou can receive incoming calls from accounts you have called. Presumably, the bootstrap looks like two people try to call each other, one is rejected, one goes through. Then either can call the other in the future.
