Is your iOS device (iPad or iPhone) stuck on FaceTime call ending? Does it keep saying “FaceTime Ending…” (see the image below). If your device becomes stuck and unresponsive when you attempt to end a FaceTime call, do not worry you are not alone. It seems that a lot of users are having this issue. It further seems that especially iPhone X users are experiencing this problem. This problem is especially frustrating because your device will not respond until the FaceTime call ends.

Best way is to avoid Facetiem and use WhatsApp
This happened to me and I could not shut the phone down by cold or hard reset . It was unusual for the person calling me to FaceTime so I didn’t answer . Then I accidentally called them back and it froze on end with weird numbers scrolling past . I finally remembered that you could shut down phone in settings . I freaked out for an hour thinking that I had been hacked
I kept fiddling with it and “paused” came up. I hit that twice and a red X appeared. Hitting that finally shut down the call. Jinny
Ehh.. but when the iPhone is unresponsive, I can’t open settings nor any other app. The side-button doesn’t work either. =P
