Will it close out or can you wake up with it still going?

I have experimented with it and it only lasted for 3 hours and 25 minutes. I did it with my friend and neither of us hung up.

facetime calls can run for as long as you want, but the longer they run, the more your phone heats up and slows down, which could cause the call to fail due to poor stability. the longest one i've had was 18 hours

I suppose in theory FaceTime would run all the time if you didn't end the call or the other party didn't end the call - as long as you don't lose your WiFi connection that is.

That's not right either one of you lost connection or something because no way 2 hours is so little. Me and my friend are on the call right now as a matter of fact lol and we've been talking for 11 hours 🙂

It just depends. My boyfriends phone is broken. Our calls will just drop. We’ve had a 9-10 hour call and then we’ve had a 3-4 hour call and both of us will be asleep. It will end if your phone starts to get hot also.

I don’t think there’s any limit, I’ve stayed on a facetime call for 27 hours, it doesn’t cut off because there’s a limit, your phone most likely overheated

Ft can run all night 😂 Sometimes the person accidentally hangs up . FaceTime usually stops around 12-13 hours .

I have done it overnight with my friend and it lasted 10 hours until we both decided to end it. So it would probably last for a long time if you had good WiFi and signal.
