I do not need to download anything. I want to turn off a function that I never agreed to have on in the first place. I do not want my iPhone notifications coming through on my iMac.

I have the same issue. I followed the instructions to disable through FaceTime last night, and today I'm still receiving notifications and text messages on my iMac. This is a terribly intrusive feature when trying to sync audio to video footage. Please help me turn this off!

See the following quote from Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support

To turn off iPhone cellular calls on your iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.

On your Mac, open the FaceTime app and go to FaceTime > Preferences. Click Settings and deselect the iPhone Cellular Calls option.
