Turn off call forwarding from the phone calls are forwarded to

We have two iPhones.


My husband’s phone has calls forwarding to my phone.


Unfortunately, his phone was misplaced a couple of days ago. Find My shows it to be in the house, or close by outside, but we can’t locate it by calling it, since the calls are being forwarded to mine.


Please help!


Can I turn off the forwarding (on his phone) from my cell? Any other ideas? His phone was fully charged, but it has been a couple of days now and we’ve run out of ideas, and places to look (yes, even inside the freezer).



iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

Unfortunately, you cannot turn off call forwarding from your device. On your iPhone, go to Find My, then tap on Me, the scroll down to the bottom and there is a section where you can log into your husband's iCloud ID to allow you to play a sound on the device. That does not rely on call forwarding and you should be able to hear the sound on the device. It will play it at full volume.
