Nov 17, 2015 10:22 AM in response to razmee209by EmaNoel94,I think I got all set up, and as I said it works fine with incoming calls and sms, but can't call/send sms. Is there anything specific that you wanted me to notice in that link?

Nov 17, 2015 11:22 AM in response to razmee209by EmaNoel94,I don't have another nanosim and would have to get it, and I will if it fixes my problem. What will happen? Will it work? And how will I be able to tell my iPhone 5 to send sms using the other phone's number and sim? Sorry if there's a reference in the link you sent me before but I can't seem to find it, it would be really useful if you could show me what would happen putting a sim in my iPhone 5...

Nov 17, 2015 11:23 AM in response to EmaNoel94by razmee209,Go to your phone carrier and get a sim card for you 5. Then test it out and see if you can send sms or calls using continuity.

Nov 17, 2015 11:27 AM in response to razmee209by EmaNoel94,Oh okay, so that's not a "100% sure fix" but something to try, sorry, I misunderstood.
Given that it will cost me at least 10 euros, let's see if someone knows another way... I can't think a reason why it would need a sim honestly, also given that it works when receiving and that continuity works even on device without a sim card -
Nov 17, 2015 11:29 AM in response to EmaNoel94by razmee209,iPhone Cellular Calls
With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.
Your carrier might support Wi-Fi calling on other devices. If so, you can set up your Mac and other iOS devices to make and receive calls even when your iPhone isn't on or nearby.
Set up iPhone Cellular Calls
- You need iOS 8 or later on your iOS devices and OS X Yosemite or later on your Mac.
- Check that you're signed in to iCloud with the same Apple ID on all of your devices.
- Use the same Wi-Fi network on all of your devices.
- Sign in to FaceTime with the same Apple ID on all of your devices. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. If you don't want to receive calls on your other devices, learn what to do.
Make a call or answer a call
- To make a phone call on your Mac, find a contact's phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. Hover over the number and click the phone icon that appears to the right of the number.
- To make a phone call on your iPad or iPod touch, tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari.
- On your iPad or iPod touch, you can slide to answer a phone call. On your Mac, a notification appears when someone calls your iPhone. Then you can answer the call, send it to voicemail, or send the caller a message, right from your Mac.
Turn off iPhone Cellular Calls
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.

Nov 17, 2015 11:34 AM in response to razmee209by EmaNoel94,I notice it doesn't mention making a call from another iPhone, is that what you're trying to make me notice? It doesn't work between two iPhones?
