Cellular Continuity Explained!

Last year Apple introduced Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite. Essentially it allowed users to take phone calls on other devices such as a Mac or an iPad. However, up till now you need to have both devices under same wifi connection.


That changes now with iOS 9. With iOS 9 now you can use continuity even if the devices are not under the same wireless connection.



 Which means you can have your iPhone at home, and can receive phone calls on your iPad or Macbook. The feature works on cellular network level and you can have your iPhone turned off, and it will still push your call to an iPad or any other device.

The first carrier to support Cellular Continuity is T-mobile.

Here is how to enable cellular Continuity on your main iPhone:

Step 1: Open Settings
Step 2: Tap Phone
Step 3: Tap Calls on Other Devices
Step 4: Enable the Allow Calls on Other Devices switch
Step 5: Tap Add Wi-Fi Calling For Other Devices
Enabling cellular Continuity on other devices:
Step 1: Open Settings
Step 2: Tap FaceTime
Step 3: Tap Calls from iPhone
Step 4: Enable the Calls from iPhone switch
Step 5: Tap Upgrade to Wi-Fi calling
Step 6: Tap Enable
Step 7: Enter the code provided on your iPhone to activate Wi-Fi calling on iPad and tap Allow
Step 8: Wait for Wi-Fi Calls to activate on the iPad
Now even if you have your iPod or iPad next to you and your iPhone is turned off, you will still be able to receive phone calls on your iPad or iPod which is incredible. What do you think of this feature? Leave your suggestions down below!
