Apple has released a new iPhone ad called "FaceTime Every Day," the third in the popular people-oriented ad series the company launched earlier this year. The previous ads, "Music Every Day" and "Photos Every Day" highlighted the iPhone's Music and Camera apps.
As with the other ads in the series that focused on music and photos, FaceTime Every Day highlights Apple's FaceTime app. The spot features a number of people of all ages using FaceTime in various locations across the world.
Soft music plays as a group wishes a man happy birthday from afar, fireworks are shared across long distances, and a woman uses the app to communicate with sign language.
The advertisement ends with a familiar line: "Every day more people connect face to face on the iPhone than any other phone."

How true. Just last week I was talking to my Australian relatives on Skype.
"How's everything going?" I asked them.
"Everything's glug blig blog glug glug", they replied. Then the call disconnected.
Seriously, if you think Skype holds a candle to FaceTime's quality/stability, you haven't been using it enough.
And works with iPad,iPhone and even Mac :D
No need to remember user ids and passwords separately for Skype or log-in, worry about setting up and filling a new profile etc. Love FT !
And let's not forget that the iPhone was the very first phone to offer native videochats, so Apple gets the credit for kickstarting the whole mobile videochat revolution with FaceTime. I don't even know if any phones had a front facing camera before Apple invented FaceTime.
Apple innovation, like always.
