Ipad rings when a call is coming into my iphone

I want my ipad to stop ringing when I get a call on my iphone. I've gone to settings and clicked on "remove this device" but there was no device showing when I did that. However, the option to "remove this device" was gone after I did that. I clicked on done and left the screen.

I tested though and the ipad continues to show the phone number and ring.


How can I stop that?

Thanks.

You can easily stop cellular calls being forwarded to your iPad - without disabling FaceTime.


On your iPhone:

Settings > Mobile Data > Calls on Other Devices > Allow Calls on Other Devices - set to OFF

Depending upon your country, you will see either the Mobile Data or Cellular item in settings; they are functionally the same option.


From Allow Calls on Other Devices, you can individually explicitly enable/disable devices from the list - or fully disable the feature for all devices.


Disabling FaceTime will not only prevent the use of Cellular Calling to/from your iPad, but also completely disabled FaceTime - this feature being something that you may wish to keep enabled. For iPad, the FaceTime App provides access to WiFi/Cellular Calling - as well as FaceTime Calls (Apple’s FaceTime being an entirely different service).

thank you @lotuspilot. I don't have "mobile" data but I have "Cellular" data and I went there to turn off the ipad. I also have an iwatch so I did not turn off allow calls on other devices. However, I do not see the iwatch listed. So, I'll check it a little today to see if I can get it all working. Turning off facetime did the trick earlier though.


I appreciate you follow up. Thanks again
