How do I change default phone application in Mac OSX Capitan/Sierra?
I do not want to use Facetime. I want to use a different app, say Skype or Uno to make phone calls. I already tried changing default app in Facetime/Settings but it doesn't stick, it immediately changes back to Facetime again.
MacBook Pro, iOS 8.1.3
I ran into this "opposite" problem too after installing Skype. As usual, Apple don't make it easy to find these settings!
1. start the "Facetime" application
2. "FaceTime" → "Preferences…" menu item (or ⌘+,)
3. in the "Settings" tab that opens, down the bottom, change "Default for calls" from "Skype for Business" to "FaceTime".
After that, calling from the "Messages" app went through my iPhone again like it used to.
PS: boo to Microsoft for silently changing this default!
