Pause a FaceTime video call on Mac

Select version:

Modifying this control will update this page automatically

at the top of the FaceTime window or switch to another app.

If you’re in full-screen view, first exit out of the view.

If you’re on a Group FaceTime call, the minimize button only minimizes the screen; it doesn’t pause the call.

Resume a paused video call: Click the FaceTime icon in the Dock.
