To unlink your FaceTime from other devices, you will need to go into the Settings app on each device where the FaceTime is currently linked. First, tap on the “FaceTime” option and then select “Linked Numbers & Email Addresses”.
From here, you can choose which numbers and/or email addresses you would like to have disconnected from your Apple ID. Then confirm your selection with the “Done” button in the upper right corner. If you have multiple devices, you will need to repeat the steps on all of them to successfully unlink them from your FaceTime account.
Once you’ve finished, your FaceTime calls and messages should no longer be shared between all of the devices.

Why does FaceTime show up on multiple devices?
FaceTime is Apple’s video and audio calling service that allows two or more people to connect with each other using an internet connection or cellular data. FaceTime utilizes Apple’s iCloud service, so when someone signs into their Apple ID on their device, FaceTime is automatically enabled on that device.
That means if you sign in to iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or other Apple device with the same Apple ID, FaceTime will be available on all of those devices.
This is why FaceTime shows up on multiple devices: because iCloud ties them all together. When someone signs in with the same Apple ID, iCloud stores the relevant information so that FaceTime is available on any device signed into iCloud.
This makes it easy to receive FaceTime calls from anywhere, as long as your device is connected to the internet.
Are FaceTime conversations stored?
No, FaceTime conversations are not stored. FaceTime communication is transmitted directly between devices over the internet. Once the call ends, the data transmission ends and the video/audio is gone.
Because the calls are not stored, no one can retrieve the data from a FaceTime call after it has ended.
How do you rewatch a FaceTime call?
Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to rewatch a FaceTime call. Apple itself doesn’t offer any native way of rewatching your FaceTime calls and there unfortunately is not a third-party app to help you do this either.
That being said, there are a few steps you can take before, during, and after your FaceTime call to be able to go back and view or listen to the contents of your call.
Before the call, you can screenshot and record the call, or use OBS or Quicktime Player to record your FaceTime call. During the call you can make use of the audio or video pausing functions, again with the help of third party applications like OBS.
This will allow you to pause the call at any time, go back to a previous point and even capture screenshots or audio chunks from the call. Lastly, after the call you can use third-party apps like TapeACall Pro to record your audio or video recordings of your FaceTime call.
In conclusion, while it is not currently possible to rewatch your FaceTime call as of now, you can use the steps mentioned above to save your conversation, screenshots and audio recordings of your FaceTime call to refer back to.
Is FaceTime safer than WhatsApp?
Both FaceTime and WhatsApp offer secure messaging, with end-to-end encryption for both sent and received messages. However, FaceTime has an additional security feature that WhatsApp does not – the underlying authentication protocols.
FaceTime authenticates both ends of the call with an authentication key. This means FaceTime is better protected against potential attackers as the authentication protocols mean an attacker cannot ‘spoof’ a call and access the messages.
WhatsApp also protects users, but only through its encryption which makes all messages sent through the service unreadable to anyone who isn’t a part of the conversation. As encryption only scrambles the contents of conversations, it doesn’t stop attackers from simulating another user, indistinguishable to the legitimate user and gaining access to the conversation.
Overall, FaceTime is considered to be the more secure platform as it has additional protocols in place that ensure the authenticity of all communications. WhatsApp remains a secure method of communication, however, and is arguably better for users who require more privacy as it encrypts all conversations regardless of whether the user is authenticated or not.
Where are FaceTime videos stored on Mac?
On Mac computers, FaceTime videos are stored in the Pictures folder of the user’s home library. To access this folder, you can go to the Finder application and select the Home option to view all of your folders.
Inside the Home folder will be the Pictures folder, which is where FaceTime videos are stored. Additionally, the videos can be accessed through the Photos application. When you open the Photos application, you will see all of your photos and videos organized by date.
You can then find the FaceTime videos nested in the folders labeled Video.
It is important to note that if you delete stored FaceTime videos on Mac, they may not be recoverable. It is recommended that you back up your data regularly in order to prevent any lost files. You can do this by using an external device or cloud storage.
Why are my FaceTime Photos not saving Mac?
There could be a few different reasons why your FaceTime photos are not saving on your Mac. The most common issue is that your storage is full, which is preventing you from saving your photos. You can check the available storage on your Mac by going to the Apple menu > About This Mac.
If you need to free up space, you can review the “Storage” tab to see where photos, videos, and other files are taking up space. It’s also possible that you don’t have enough privileges on your Mac to save FaceTime photos.
Check your system preferences to ensure that you have the appropriate permissions set for your photos. Lastly, it’s possible that you may have encountered an error with the FaceTime application itself.
Try restarting your Mac and checking the app to see if the issue persists. If it does, you should contact Apple Support for further assistance.
Can I Unistall FaceTime?
Yes, you can uninstall FaceTime from your device. However, if you do uninstall FaceTime, you won’t be able to make or receive video/audio calls using FaceTime. To uninstall FaceTime, you can go into your device’s App Store and find the FaceTime app.
Once you locate it, select the app and then hit the uninstall option. Depending on what device you have, you may be able to delete the app from the home screen by tapping and holding the FaceTime app until it shakes and an X appears on the top-left corner of the app.
Select the X and you will be asked if you want to delete the app. Select yes, and the FaceTime app will be uninstalled from your device.
What happens if I try to FaceTime someone who blocked me?
If you try to FaceTime someone who has blocked your number, the call will not go through. The person who blocked you will not receive any notifications of your attempted call, so they won’t know that you tried to reach out.
Instead, you will get an error message with a note that the person is not available. If you have been blocked, it is best to respect the person’s wishes and not try to call again.
