How do I get rid of FaceTime Square?

Answered by Willie Powers

To get rid of the FaceTime Square, you can follow these steps:

1. Make sure your device’s software is up to date. This is important because older versions of FaceTime may not have the option to disable the automatic resizing of windows.

2. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. You can usually find it on your home screen, represented by a gear icon.

3. Scroll down the list of settings options and tap on “FaceTime.” It’s usually located in the fifth or sixth group of settings.

4. In the FaceTime settings, look for the option called “Automatic Prominence.” This is the feature that automatically enlarges the window of the person who is speaking during a group call.

5. Toggle off the switch next to “Speaking.” This will disable the automatic resizing of FaceTime windows based on who is speaking.

By following these steps, you should be able to prevent FaceTime from automatically enlarging the window of the person speaking during a group call. This can be useful if you prefer to have a consistent and fixed window size for all participants.

It’s worth noting that these steps may vary slightly depending on the version of iOS or iPadOS you are using. If you’re having trouble finding the FaceTime settings or the “Automatic Prominence” option, you can also try searching for them in the Settings app using the search bar at the top.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
