Good evening,
i just recently switched from android to iPhone. One thing I have trouble with is that my phone calls go automatically to FaceTime audio instead of voice call when using IMessage. I read that once I tap “audio” it should give me an option to make a voice call or audio call but that does not even pop up. How to I make voice call default?
Within imessage simply long press the 'Audio' icon and you will be prompted to select either a Voice Call or a Facetime Call.
I think if you are pressing the Audio icon for the very first time for a given contact then you are automatically prompted with the choice. The iPhone then remembers that selection as the default. To get the choice of Voice or Facetime call again, the long press on the Audio button is required.
Hope this helps.

On second thought please check whether the message thread which you have opened is from a Phone Number OR an email ID
I hope, I have been able to resolve your query.
Hello thank you for your response.
i understand that there’s different apps but I’m using iMessage. Tap on the contact name on a message thread and tap audio and it goes straight to FaceTime audio not voice call.
FaceTime and Voice Calls have different Apps
See the GIF below to make FaceTime Audio and FaceTime Video
No it will not. When you will click on audio, it will give you options Voice or FaceTime, see the pic below
Still no resolve. Contacts don’t have an email attached to their contacts just their phone number yet calls still go straight to FaceTime audio.
facetime audio vs voice call
