Hide FaceTime Button in CallKit UI

Question

I am implementing CallKit support inside a VoIP application.

I managed to disable the video button by setting supportsVideoto falsein CXProviderConfiguration. Now the FaceTime button has appeared.

I wanted to know if there is a way to disable FaceTime in the user interface by default, since the application processes internal corporate numbers that have nothing to do with FaceTime.

---

Update : As indicated in the answers below, you can disable the button, but the caller’s number is lost (displayed as Unknown). I want to save the number and disable the FaceTime button.

---

Update : Disabling the FaceTime feature on the iPhone disables the FaceTime button. However, this is not an acceptable solution to the problem.

---

Update : Any type changes CXHandle, including inserting characters that are invalid for a phone number into it, do not affect the problem - the FaceTime button is still displayed.

Answer 1

In a good news / bad news vein, I was able to turn off the FaceTime button by clearing remoteHandle(it didn’t delete or hide, it’s just inactive).

However, as a side effect, Caller appears as "Unknown" if you do not set the property localizedCallerNameto CXCallUpdate.
A call without a handle will have a side effect that cannot be pressed in Recents.

CXCallUpdate *callUpdate = [[CXCallUpdate alloc] init];
//callUpdate.remoteHandle = [[CXHandle alloc] initWithType:CXHandleTypeGeneric value:handle];
[self.provider reportNewIncomingCallWithUUID:uuid update:callUpdate completion:^(NSError* error) {}];

• Init CXProviderConfiguration.

  let providerConfiguration = CXProviderConfiguration(localizedName: "yourConfigName")
  providerConfiguration.supportsVideo = supportsVideo
  providerConfiguration.supportedHandleTypes = [.generic, .phoneNumber, .emailAddress] // Pick your own supportedHandleTypes.
  

• remoteHandle .

  let update = CXCallUpdate()
  
  // Set hasVideo so it shows correct type on incomingCall screen.
  update.hasVideo = supportsVideo
  
  // Exclude remoteHandle so that the FaceTime button is disabled
  // update.remoteHandle = CXHandle(type: .generic, value: yourHandle)
  

• Important! Refresh the remote interface when the call ends in the delegate func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, perform action: CXEndCallAction).

Excluding remoteHandle when reportIncomingCall loses the ability to call from the system call log. But you can update the call and configure it right before the call ends.

 func provider(_ provider: CXProvider, perform action: CXEndCallAction) {
    let update = CXCallUpdate()

    // Set the remoteHandle, so you can call from System Call History
    update.remoteHandle = CXHandle(type: .generic, value: yourHandle)
    provider.reportCall(with: uuid, updated: update)

    action.fulfill()
}
