Group facetime - who initiated the call

[howartp]

We've got a problem with student(s) making large group calls at all hours of the day and night.

 

Can anyone who uses Facetime advise me - when you have the attached list of unanswered incoming calls, is the first number shown definitely the person who initiated the call? Or, if I go into the list of recipients, is the top number definitely the person who initiated the call?

 

Or is it random?

 

TIA

From my knowledge of FaceTime and when i use it myself within group calls it can be random for myself.

 

I know from experience that a FaceTime call between 3 people, including myself as one of those 3, the person that initiated the call is not always the first person that appears on the list in my FaceTime history. Sometimes it is indeed true as i personally know who called first, but then sometimes it isn't.

 

I am not sure if this is the same for everyone else, but it seems that way for me on my iPhone. (Only just realized this now by actually looking back at my history)
