With its latest iOS 17, iPadOS 17.4, and macOS 17.4 (Sonoma), Apple has introduced 8 hand gestures during video calls in the FaceTime app and other video conferencing apps, which lets you fill your screen with 3D effects. For eg. if you make a heart by joining hands, then you will see that the floating red hearts will arise from the center of your hands as shown in the image below:

As most of the users don’t know that this feature is enabled by default. But sometimes, it creates awkward and embarrassing moments during some important video calls such as business meetings, online therapy, online classes, etc.

Luckily, Apple has come up with a solution for this. Along with the new iOS 17.4 (stable) and iPadOS 17.4 (stable), which is going to be launched by next month i.e. March 2024, Apple is going to release a new API (Application Programming Interface) that allows video conferencing apps to turn off the gesture-based reactions by default in their apps as said by MacRumors Contributor Aaron Perris. Until now, it’s not confirmed whether this API will also be accessible in macOS 14.4.

How to turn off Gesture-based Reactions (FaceTime)

1. On an iPhone or iPad:

• First, you have to open FaceTime on your iPhone or iPad.
• Then, swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen to see Control Center.

Note: If you have a Touch ID-based iPhone/ iPad, then Swipe up from the bottom to see Control Center.

• Then, you have to tap on the Effects button which is present in the top-left corner.
• After that, tap on the Reactions button.
• At last, swipe up twice (2 times) to return to FaceTime.

2. On a MacBook or iMac: To turn off FaceTime reactions on a MacBook or iMac, running macOS Sonoma, you have to click on the Reactions button which is present in the FaceTime menu bar.
