    Hey there Jonakuet,

     

    It sounds like your phone is not ringing when you get a call, but is instead vibrating. I would first check to see if the phone is muted:

     

    Set your device to silent mode

    • iPhone: Toggle the Ring/Silent switch on the side of the device.

     

    From: iOS: Understanding sounds, ringtones, and alerts

    I would next check to see if Do Not Disturb is enabled on the phone.

    • To enable, tap Settings > Do Not Disturb. When Do Not Disturb is on, a "moon" icon will appear in the status bar.
    • To make changes to your Do Not Disturb settings, tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
