I pushed "facetime" while making a call, and now whenever I call that number, it activates facetime. I know I can turn off Facetime in settings, but I use it for other calls. How can I delete facetime just from this one contact?
iPhone 4S, iOS 6.1.2
This works and thank you! But is extremely clumsy. Most contact lists have multiple entries for a given name, (at least in my contact list), so you have to write down the number, re-entry the contact then add to favorite. Apple, please fix this.

Update: I did the work around with Favorites. Did not help. For some folks, when I open a contact I do NOT want to see FaceTime listed.
I suspect that what you did was add this contact as a Favorite, and when you do this you're prompted to designate the entry as a Voice Call or FaceTime call, and you selected FaceTime. To correct this, remove the contact from Favorites and re-add it as a Voice Call.
You mean this happens when you call this number from your call favorites list?
I'm having the same trouble! Did u ever figure it out?
There's nothing to fix, you're not understanding. I was not suggesting to delete the contact entirely, just remove its "Favorite" status and re-add it as a Favorite but this time designate it as a "Voice Call" instead of FaceTime.
I think people get confused when using the FaceTime app they set up a "FaceTime Favorite", not realizing that doing so adds that contact entry to your phone's Favorites too, but as a FaceTime contact. Either that, or when adding a Favorite from within the phone's contact list, they inadvertently select FaceTime as the way to contact the person.
Worked as you said:
Very good information - Thanks 🙂
I have this question as well. I use FaceTime for a few contacts. The majority of contacts should NOT have an option to use Facetime.
If I delete contact from FaceTime it is also deleted from contacts. There should be an option under contact for facetime - on or off for that person. If I go to settings to disable FaceTime. The app disappears and can't be used at all. iPhone 5s. Any help? I don't use favorites. If I delete the unsteady FaceTime app is there another app I can use for the same purpose? Thank you in advance.
how do I delete facetime from a contact?
