So Apple unintentionally built a backdoor for people who'd like to hear just how little their friends want to talk to them?
Worked for me when trying it with my wife.Didn’t work for me. I tried with a friend a few times following the steps
You may not understand that despite loads of QC, beta testings, etc, software bugs still manage to slip through under the right set of conditions and circumstances. Especially with respect to complex software.
I've yet to see 100% perfection. From anyone.
You may totally miss the point.
Accessing a user’s phone’s mic without them interacting/allowing it is so against all iOS conventions and far beyond a simple bug.
Nothing should ever happen on my side of that call if I don’t move that darn slider.
I've noticed this for around a year!
Wouldn't call this serious as it doesn't affect many people, doesn't destroy data, ...
What’s the purpose of going through 6-7 betas and stuff like this goes unnoticed.
If that person declines or hangs up then it gets disconnected, right?The person you are calling still has the someone would like to FaceTime screen, even though no more ringing.
Facetime Video. Haven't tested Audio.

Sometimes you only need their email address...I know some politicians id love to test this on if I had their number.
To deal with things that do get noticed.What’s the purpose of going through 6-7 betas and stuff like this goes unnoticed.
a standard Group FaceTime call sans video
Should have, or at least would have been really good if they did, sure. Easily, let alone very easily, that's very debatable.Test engineers should have caught this very easily.
This is fairly basic reality that doesn't really involve any of those things. (Bugs, including rather bad ones, even happened under Steve Jobs.)Gotta love Apple's integrated approach. Seriously, enough is enough. Fire Tim Cook, fire Jony Ive, fire Craig Federighi. Bring back Scott Forstall. This is what happens when you have a fashion designer run a COMPUTER company.
