Facetime Photo

When I take a photo during a FaceTime call it doesn't capture the small window with my picture, just the person I am calling


Can you help?


Thanks

Hi supersonic29,


Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities. From our understanding, when you take a live photo in FaceTime, you are only getting a photo of the contact you are on the call with and not of yourself, is that right? This would be expected behavior. Live Photos in FaceTime only take a photo of the contact, if you want to include yourself in the photo, you'll want to screenshot instead.
