When I’m on FaceTime and try using another app but still show the camera it won’t let me and when someone tries screen sharing with me it turns my screen black with a loading symbol
iPhone 14, iOS 16
Hey there Rileyhorton,
You should be able to swipe up on your screen while on a FaceTime call so you can get back to the Home Screen and use other apps. This will allow you to see the other person and the other person can see you.
While you’re on a call using the FaceTime app, you can use other apps—for example, to look up information or perform a calculation.
Go to the Home Screen, then tap an app icon to open the app.
To return to the FaceTime screen, tap the green bar (or the FaceTime icon) at the top of the screen.
You can also share your screen with the other people in your FaceTime call while using another app. See Share your screen in a FaceTime call.

Take care!
