iPhone 4s does not have Face Time application

Today I purchased the iPhone 4S and noticed it does not have the Face Time application installed. In settings I have this app turned on. Where/how can I download this application?


Thanks for your help.

an e-mail i received brought an answer that does not show in this thread stating:


"

FaceTIme is not an application, it is part of the phone application. If the facetime icon is greyed out when you are on a call, or is not available in Contacts, then you need to go into Settings and enable it. Settings>FaceTime"


I have FaceTime on an iPod touch and this device is not a phone; so I do not undestand the answer I recived.


my Iphone 4s does not have an icon for face time, but it is turned on in settings.

GLJones - Thank you for the answer -

The contact list allows me to launch the face time application, and does allow me to make a 'call', but its icon does not show in the iPhone. Is this the way FaceTime works in this device?

I'm new to all of this and thank you for your response which - as I write this, does not show up in the support thread I started.

You can facetime using the method above, selecting the contact and then selecting the facetime button or alternatively go to the app store and download a free facetime app from a 3rd party which is what I have done as I find it quicker. You are right in that the ipods come with a Facetime app from Apple, I have no idea why Apple don't make this available to all users that have a forward facing camera.
