iOS 26 FaceTime Audio call history groups multiple calls

Just to be clear, the problem apparently only happens with Facetime Audio calls.

Make a series of calls to the same caller.

Go to Recent Calls

Hit the "i" Info button next to a caller's name.

Then tap "Call History"

Call history only shows the latest call.

This is not true with regular cell calls -- all calls are listed.

For this reason, and because this problem began when I installed iOS26, I consider it a bug.

Whether it is or isn't a bug, Apple won't see your posts here on this user to user only forum. Have you provided feedback to Apple where it will be seen? Use this to share your findings with Apple --> Feedback - iPhone - Apple

When you call the same person repeatedly within a short time—and no other incoming calls interrupt—your iPhone groups those attempts into a single entry, showing the count in parentheses. This isn’t new to iOS 26; the feature has been around for years. You may have simply noticed it now.

Refer to the picture below for a comparison of the Classic and Unified Views of Calls.

If you tap the VoiceMail option on the Unified Section, what you see is only a list of VMs. Similarly, if unknown callers option is selected, the list will only include that.

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.

Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!

Was/Is your device Jailbroken? If that's the situation, please be informed that attributing the issues to iOS updates may not be accurate.

iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.

Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.

Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
