Facetime swap between devices

Is there a way to swap a FaceTime call between by iPhone / iPad without hanging up? Im having wifi issues at home currently and sometimes need to switch to my phone using cellular data for stability but would be easier if I could swap over or join the call and hang up the iPad. I saw some old posts about this but wondered if this has been addressed in recent iOS updates?

iPhone X
