Apple added a feature in the latest developer release of iOS 13 beta that greatly improves the experience in video calls on Facetime. The 'Facetime Attention Correction' attempts to correct the look during a call, making it look like you're looking directly into the camera.
What makes any video call less natural is that we look directly at the screen, where we see the person on the other side, not the camera, where we are being watched. With 'Facetime Attention Correction', we can continue to look at the screen. But a correction is made in the look in which it will appear that we are looking at the camera.
Correction of look is done automatically
This feature was discovered and tested by users Will Sigmon and Mike Rundle on Twitter. In the images below you can see a comparison of the differences when Will Sigmon looks directly at the camera, or looks at the screen with the new functionality. The software thus corrects the look automatically, giving a feeling of closeness.
Facetime thus creates the clear effect that we are looking at the camera when we are not doing it. To get a sense of what had happened previously, the user opened the camera application and took two records: one looking directly at the camera and another looking directly at the screen. Since there is no correction of look here, the normal of video calls happens.
Second is advanced by users, functionality is only available to be active on the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max. This should mean that it is only available on the latest Apple camera hardware.
The great advantage of this feature is that it gives a greater sense of presence and naturalness to any video call on the platform. And if there is a feature that other applications of the genre should copy from Apple in the future is certainly this.
