Regarding the automatic setting you mentioned, are you referring to the setting found under accessibility as call audio routing? If so, I wish there was a setting specific to just FaceTime. Unfortunately, the setting mentioned above affects all incoming cellular calls as well which isn't always desirable. Is there such a setting in the FaceTime app? I couldn't find one.

I haven't played with FaceTime for quite some time so I wasn't aware of the some of the settings available. One of great interest is the output audio selection either automatic, speaker or Headset. I've just been chatting to someone on FaceTime using my Yamaha MXP100 Heads Free music system, as its a Bluetooth 4 device the quality of audio between us was very good indeed! as was the noise cancellation effect, I was sitting in my kitchen with my fridge doing its job and the person I was chatting to had alarms going ooff, phones ringing and God knwos what else happening, I did hear the odd click as the noise cancellation system did its thing but apart from that the call was dead silent apart from the conversation being conducted, pure magic. I've not played with Skype for IOS but do intend to in the coming days as I'm interested to see whether Skype will handle such devices as the Yamaha MPX100 as well as FaceTime obviously does,. And finally, both of us in our chat were using hands free devices, me the aforementioned Yamaha device and the other party used their iPHone in Hands free mode, we both commented just how clear the whole thing was and how we wouldn't have known that we were both using hands free systems.
