Greetings Mkamelgafi,


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! I understand you're curious how to make a FaceTime audio call with your iPhone.


The following support article provides helpful information for using FaceTime on an iOS device: Use FaceTime with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Specifically, the following section will show you how to make a FaceTime audio call:


Make a FaceTime call 
To make a FaceTime call, you need the person's phone number or registered email address. There are a few ways to make a FaceTime call:
In the FaceTime app, tap  and type the person's phone number or email address. Tap the number or address, then tap Audio  or Video .
If you have the person's phone number or email address saved in your Contacts, you can begin typing their name and tap the name when it appears. Then tap Audio  or Video 
You can also begin a FaceTime video call from your iPhone during a phone call. Tap the FaceTime icon in the Phone app to switch to FaceTime.


Cheers!
