As the launch of the Pixel 10a approaches, the company may be promising even more stuff and is targeting yet another Apple service.<\/p>\n<p>For the past few months, Pixel 10 owners have been able to easily send files from their smartphone to their iPhone, iPad, and Mac via AirDrop. This feature makes it much easier to share files with friends and colleagues. Contrary to previous expectations, Apple has not yet integrated any obstacles into its operating systems to stop this process. There may be signs of further cooperation between the devices of the two tech giants.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-google-s-promise-video-calls-are-also-possible-with-facetime\">Google\u2019s Promise: Video Calls Are Also Possible with FaceTime<\/h2>\n<p>Anyone visiting the official Google Store has stumbled across an interesting note on the page for the upcoming Pixel 10a for a few days now. In the \u201cSwitching to Google Pixel\u201d section, the company promises a \u201cwide selection for video calls\u201d. It currently states: \u201cVideo calls are also possible with FaceTime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Google Store promises FaceTime for the Pixel 10a <span class=\"image-source\">Image source: Google Store<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The reaction to this promise can vary. After AirDrop, has Google possibly also discovered a way to perform FaceTime calls without the Apple app? Or does the statement merely refer to the option of joining FaceTime calls via a web link, which has already been available for some time? It could therefore be seen as a marketing ploy. After all, an Apple device with the FaceTime app is currently required to create such links.<\/p>\n<p>However, Google\u2019s wording is notable. In the overview of its Pixel smartphones in its own store, the company also wrote about FaceTime capability: \u201cOr join a friend\u2019s FaceTime call in your browser.\u201d That\u2019s much closer to today\u2019s reality than the statement on the Pixel 10a above.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nextpit.com\/img\/google-store-facetime-pixel-overview.jpg?class=1070x3210\" alt=\"In der generellen \u00dcbersicht zu den Pixel-Smartphones ist Google etwas zur\u00fcckhaltender\" class=\"wp-image-589847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nextpit.com\/img\/google-store-facetime-pixel-overview.jpg?class=1070x3210r 2x\"\/>Google is a little more cautious in the general overview of the Pixel smartphones <span class=\"image-source\">Image source:&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nextpit.com\/news\/google-promises-further-iphone-feature-for-pixel-10a\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google Promises Another iPhone Feature For the Pixel 10a https:\/\/www.nextpit.com\/news\/google-promises-further-iphone-feature-for-pixel-10a Publish Date: 2026-02-14 11:00:00 Source&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":213574,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.nextpit.com\/img\/google-pixel-10a.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-213573","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213573"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=213573"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213573\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":213575,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213573\/revisions\/213575"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/213574"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=213573"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=213573"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=213573"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
