Restrictions in Russia
Access to the service in Russia has been restricted by the regulator since 4 December 2025, citing measures to prevent fraud and terrorist activity. For most users in Russia, the service does not open without additional tools, and calls end with an 'unavailable' error; as of late September 2026, the restriction remains in place.

Why is FaceTime down for me, but working for others?
Most often, it depends on the network: accessibility varies by provider and region. Check FaceTime from your device, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or restart the app. Check the "Who is having issues" section to see affected providers.
How can I check if FaceTime opens on my device?
Tap "Check" in the "Check on your device" section. Your browser will query FaceTime addresses directly and display the response status and time. The check takes up to 8 seconds and installs nothing.
Why doesn't FaceTime open for everyone?
Access has been restricted by the regulator since 4 December 2025 — calls fail with an error. Restrictions apply unevenly: the service does not open at all on some providers, while on others it loads slowly or partially. That's why it might work for friends but not for you.
