Group FaceTime calls have been removed from the latest betas

One of the most important changes that developers have found in the beta versions released yesterday afternoon of macOS and iOS, is that the Group FaceTime calls have been removed from both operating systems, so they are not available now.

In this case, it seems that the company is taking a step back from what they announced in the last WWDC this year. This is not a complete elimination of the new FaceTime function, quite the opposite, and it is that it may not be ready to be launched in September and the company announces that it will be will continue to work on it for release before the end of the year.

FaceTime calls with 32 people

This is basically what they announced to us in the last WWDC keynote and with the Withdrawal of the function in beta 7 we are clear that something is not working quite right. Apple will not launch this function or other similar ones if they are not fully functional, as happened with the messages of iCloud, AirPlay 2 or Apple Pay Cash ...

There is no specific date for the launch of this feature announced in June, as soon as we have new news about it we will publish it. On the other hand, what does seem clear is that Betas play a primary role in testing new features And this has been demonstrated again with the withdrawal of group calls for FaceTime ahead of the official release of the macOS Mojave and iOS 12 versions.
