Ghost FaceTime calls to Mac in the middle of the night
Hi! I’m a little freaked out. Last night/early this morning, I gotten woken up to my FaceTime ringing. Confused and disoriented from getting woke up at 1 am, I grab my phone to see who’s calling. No one. The ringing stopped and I went back to sleep.
An hour later (maybe sooner), it all happens again. I wake up to FaceTime chimes at 1:45 am, check the phone, nothing. Now I realize the sound is coming from another room. I get up, go to the office, and see that the ringing is coming from my Mac.
The FaceTime app is open but there is no sign of a call coming in except for the ringing sound, again and again, until I finally CMD+Q the app to shut it up.
Freaked out, I open FaceTime again to check the recent calls to see who called. No one. My last call was from the previous day.
Any idea what’s going on here? I checked Twitter and other support forums assuming that I’d see that this was some major Apple bug, but nothing. My Mac and iPhone are on the same Apple ID, so I don’t understand why my computer rang when my phone didn’t.
The closest I found was this support article from 2019 that feels like it could be a similar issue but it unresolved: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250446382
Any leads of help is appreciated. It seriously freaked me and my wife out to get woken up by ghost FaceTime calls in the middle of the night. Thanks.
