Disconnect my phone from my comptuter

How can I disconnect my phone from my computer? Every time the phone rings, it rings on the computer, often ten minutes later.

MacBook, macOS 10.14

Hi SFeil,


Thank you for posting your question. As I understand it, you want to know how to prevent calls from coming in on your computer. I'd be checking into that myself, and I'm glad to show you how.


This resource has information about how you can Make and receive calls on your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch. Based on this resource, I recommend checking the setting below:


"On your iPhone, go to Settings > Phone > Calls on Other Devices, then turn on Allow Calls on Other Devices."


Following that same path and then turning it off should prevent calls from coming in on your Mac.


Hope that helps!


Take care.
