I used Facetime group twice, never again. I don't know how you even got to the part with tiles not working right. The basic video call was broken. One person was audio only for some reason, and I kept becoming inaudible to others. My policy with family is just use Zoom or Discord, and my friends do that anyway.We started doing weekly family video chats during this lockdown. The first time, we used Facetime. The constantly rearranging tiles, plus the way one person's video would always not be displayed (and by "one person" I mean it was a rotating thing - first it was person A, then person B, etc.)... never again.
We went with Zoom the second time. It went much more smoothly, even though the second time had two additional people. And we've had two additional Zoom chats, both of which were smooth sailing.
Facetime is probably great for two or perhaps three people... but overall it's not up to the competition.
