Grandma Fran + Facetime

My grandma wants to Facetime on an iPad. I have an extra iPad for her to use, but she only has an old flip phone (not iphone). Does she have to have an iPhone too? Or just needs to create an apple id?

iPad Air 2, 9

If you have an old/spare iPad with Facetime installed for your Grandma to use, you’ll need to create an AppleID for your Grandma - which she will use to login to the Facetime App on the iPad.


Unfortunately, you’ll not be able to use her old flipphone with Facetime.
