Shareplay for Facetime. Your turn Google.
Shareplay actually looks like a pretty decent set of features which should work on pretty much all the ios/osx devices.
It's time we have a decent Android equivalent. Stop coming up with apps that you end up killing/replacing the very next day or don't even bother to update /improve .
I have only ever used android phones but it's getting difficult now.
