Make and receive Wi-Fi calls on iPad
With Continuity, you can make and receive calls on your iPad and other Apple devices by relaying calls through your iPhone.
To make calls this way, you need iOS 9 or later and OS X 10.10 or later. You must be signed in to iCloud and FaceTime on all your devices using the same Apple ID as on iPhone.
Note: Wi-Fi calling on other devices is available with some carriers, and cellular charges may apply.
You must first set up your iPhone, then your iPad. If you log out of iCloud or FaceTime on iPhone, Wi-Fi calling is disabled.
Set up Wi-Fi calls on your iPhone
On your iPhone, go to Settings
> Cellular.If your iPhone has Dual SIM, choose a line (below Cellular Plans).
Tap Wi-Fi Calling, then turn on Wi-Fi Calling on This iPhone.
Enter or confirm your address for emergency services.
Note: Emergency calls on your iPhone are routed through cellular service when available. In the event that cellular service isn’t available, and you have enabled Wi-Fi Calling, emergency calls may be made over Wi-Fi, and your device’s location information may be used for emergency calls to aid response efforts, regardless of whether you enable Location Services. Some carriers may use the address you registered with the carrier when signing up for Wi-Fi Calling as your location. When connected to Wi-Fi calling, your iPhone may not receive emergency alerts.
Allow Wi-Fi calls on your other devices
On your iPhone, go to Settings
> Cellular.If your iPhone has Dual SIM, choose a line (below Cellular Plans).
Do any of the following:
Tap Calls on Other Devices, turn on Allow Calls on Other Devices, then choose the devices where you’d like to make and receive calls.
This allows other devices signed into your iCloud account to make and receive calls when they’re nearby your iPhone and on Wi-Fi.
Tap Wi-Fi Calling, then turn on Add Wi-Fi Calling For Other Devices.
This allows other devices signed into your iCloud account to make and receive calls even when your iPhone isn’t nearby.
Turn on Wi-Fi Calling on your iPad
On your iPad, sign in to iCloud and FaceTime with the same Apple ID that you use on your iPhone.
Go to Settings
> FaceTime, then turn on FaceTime and Calls from iPhone. If you’re asked, turn on Wi-Fi calling.
Note: If you enable Wi-Fi Calling, emergency calls may be made over Wi-Fi, and your device’s location information may be used for emergency calls to aid response efforts, regardless of whether you enable Location Services. Some carriers may use the address you registered with the carrier when signing up for Wi-Fi Calling as your location.
