In-Depth Information
The small window in the corner displays what your camera is sending
so you can make sure your face is in the frame. If you wish to move it
to another corner, drag it there.

To switch between the iPad's two cameras, tap the button at the right
in the control bar. You can also mute the audio of your side of the
conversation by tapping the Mute button at left.
6.
When you're finished with the call, tap the End button to disconnect.
Tapping the Mute button only silences the audio; it does not pause the
video image. If you want to mute the audio and also pause the image,
first tap the Mute button and then press the iPad's Home button to switch to
the Home screen. The FaceTime call is still active—you can see a status indicator
in the menubar (Figure 5.8)—but your image is frozen to the other person.
(If you just exit FaceTime without first tapping the Mute button, you can still
talk to the person at the other end of the connection.) Tap the green indicator
to return to FaceTime.

View recent calls
FaceTime keeps track of previous calls and attempted calls. Tap the
Recents button to view them. You can also use this area to add an incom-
ing caller to your list of contacts. Tap the detail ( ) button next to a
person's name to view details about the call. Then tap either the Create
New Contact or the Add to Existing Contact button (
Figure 5.9
).
