How can I force apps to use the system camera - MacBook built-in or Studio Monitor Camera?

I keep running into instances such as identifying for id.me or my wife's remote exercise app picking the Continuity camera from my iPhone.

There tends to be no way to force a selection in their interface.
 
I just noticed you can turn it off on the iPhone under Settings/AirPlay. But there are more video input options and I would still like to set the preference order. Apple should make the Facetime selection the default.
