Syncing your cell phone calls to your iPad is a handy feature that allows you to answer or make calls without needing to have your phone nearby. If you have an iPhone and an iPad, you can easily set this up in a few simple steps. After doing this, you’ll be able to take calls on your iPad, just like on your phone!<\/p>\n
Before we jump into the steps, it’s important to understand what we’re about to do. By following these steps, you’ll be linking your iPhone and iPad together so that calls you receive on your iPhone will also ring on your iPad. This is great when your phone is charging in another room, or if you prefer the larger screen of the iPad for video calls.<\/p>\n
First, ensure that both your iPhone and iPad are running on the latest iOS version and that they are compatible with this feature.<\/p>\n
Having the latest iOS version ensures that you have all the necessary features and security updates. This step is critical because if your devices are not up to date, you might not be able to sync your calls.<\/p>\n
Make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. This is essential for the devices to communicate with each other.<\/p>\n
Being on the same Wi-Fi network allows the devices to connect and share information, which is necessary for the call syncing to work.<\/p>\n
Sign into iCloud with the same Apple ID on both devices. This syncs your contacts and other account information.<\/p>\n
Using the same Apple ID is what links the devices together. It tells your iPad which calls to accept because they’re coming from your iPhone’s contacts.<\/p>\n
On your iPhone, go to Settings > Phone > Calls on Other Devices, then toggle it on and select your iPad from the list of devices.<\/p>\n
This step is where you give your iPhone permission to send call information to your iPad.<\/p>\n
On your iPad, go to Settings > FaceTime, and then toggle on ‘Calls from iPhone’ and ‘Wi-Fi Calling.’<\/p>\n
‘Wi-Fi Calling’ allows your iPad to receive calls over the internet, which is necessary since it doesn’t have cellular capabilities like your iPhone.<\/p>\n
Once these steps are completed, your iPad will begin receiving calls that come to your iPhone. You can answer the calls using your iPad’s speaker and microphone, or connect a set of headphones for more privacy. <\/p>\n
If your devices are not updated, you might not be able to sync your calls. It’s important to always keep your devices updated to the latest iOS version for the best performance and security.<\/p>\n
No, Wi-Fi calling must be supported by your carrier to use this feature. Check with your carrier if you’re unsure whether they offer Wi-Fi calling.<\/p>\n
No, your iPhone must be turned on and connected to Wi-Fi or cellular for calls to be synced to your iPad.<\/p>\n
No, this feature only works with phone calls made through the iPhone’s Phone app.<\/p>\n
Yes, once your devices are synced, you can make calls from your iPad by accessing your contacts through the FaceTime app.<\/p>\n
Having your cell phone calls synced to your iPad can be an incredibly convenient feature. Whether your iPhone is out of reach or you simply prefer the larger display of the iPad for FaceTime video calls, setting up this feature can enhance your productivity and ensure you never miss an important call. Make sure to follow the steps accurately and check for device compatibility and Wi-Fi calling support with your carrier. Don’t forget to take advantage of the additional tips to optimize your experience. So go ahead, give it a try, and enjoy the seamless integration of your Apple devices brought to you by syncing cell phone calls to your iPad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
