There's nothing in the link I posted that indicates a recipient has to be in Contacts.

How do I uninstall FaceTime? FaceTime suddenly appeared on my MacBook Pro. I didn't ask for it, don't want it and never use it. How do I make it go away? I'm sick of looking at my face on my desk top. If I can't uninstall it I would like to know how to turn the camera off. Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.6. I hope someone out there can help. Many thanks

FaceTime overlays itself over all other apps after Monterey update and i cant see how to turn that off. FaceTime overlays itself over all other apps after Monterey update and i cant see how to turn that off. It makes FaceTime calling a pain because I cannot search for stuff or help whoever ink calling if they ask me questions or anything like that. I can't see my other apps at all because FaceTime just automatically places itself over any apps I use. When it is in window mode, clicking next to it does nothing. it selects whatever is behind FaceTime but does not push whatever I click in front of FaceTime like it used to do. how can I turn this off so that FaceTime stays in the same place and turn the camera on and off by itself like it did on Big Sur?
