Hi mikeymiller69,


We understand your FaceTime calls just show a blank screen. We're happy to help.


Do you experience this issue with all FaceTime calls, or is it just happening with a specific contact? If it is just happening with one contact, it may be a poor network connection on their device.


A blank screen in FaceTime is most often caused by a poor network connection. If you're having this issue on all FaceTime calls we'd recommend testing the calls on your cellular data connection our another Wi-Fi network to see if that make a difference.

We hope this helps. Take care!
