How to Use the SharePlay Feature on Apple Smartphones

To use the SharePlay feature available on the iOS 15.1 operating system, users can make video calls on FaceTime. You should also make sure that the contact you are calling is also on iOS 15.1.

Once the call is connected, you can immediately switch to the Apple Music app or Apple TV, to enjoy the content you're playing with the friends you're calling.
