How to stop receiving calls on the iPad and other devices when they call us on the iPhone

If you make use of several Apple products, not only iOS-based devices but also a Mac, it is most likely that on more than one occasion you have found that you have received a call on the iPhone and is ringing on all devices ringing simultaneously. This function available since the last version of iOS and OS X is called Continuity and in many occasions it is very useful, especially if we spend many hours in front of the computer working, since it allows us to continue working without having to leave everything and answer the phone .

In older versions of iOS we could directly disable this function to prevent all our devices from ringing every time we receive a call, but in the latest versions, Apple allows us to customize on which devices we want the calls we receive to ring or not without having to go device by device by deactivating the function.

Like this function is very useful when we are in front of our Mac, at other times it can be a nuisance, especially if we have several devices scattered around the house and they start ringing when they call us, especially if the calls are made when the rest of the household members are sleeping or quietly watching a movie in the living room.

Disable iPhone calls on other devices

• First of all we head up Settings.
• Within Settings, click on Phone.
• Within Phone we deferred until Calls on other devices.
• Within this section, we can directly disable this option, preventing any other device associated with our account from ringing when we receive a call on the iPhone or we can selectively deactivate the devices where we do not want to receive calls and in which we do.
• If we want to deactivate only several devices, we just have to go to Allow calls on and uncheck the boxes of the devices where we do not want calls to ring.
