    Hi fundix,

    Thanks for your question.  The resource below explains how to use iPhone Cellular calls with your Mac.  Check your Continuity settings on your Mac and iPhone and adjust them as needed.

    Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch
     

    Set up iPhone Cellular Calls

    Use iPhone Cellular Calls with any Mac iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that meets the Continuity system requirements. It works when your devices are near each other and set up as follows:

    • Each device is signed in to iCloud with the same Apple ID.
    • Each device is signed in to FaceTime with the same Apple ID.
    • Each device has Wi-Fi turned on.
    • Each device is connected to the same network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
    • On iPhone, go to Settings > Phone > Calls on Other Devices, then turn on Allow Calls on Other Devices.
    • On iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > FaceTime, then turn on Calls from iPhone.
    • On Mac, open the FaceTime app, then choose FaceTime > Preferences. Click Settings, then select Calls From iPhone.

    If your carrier supports Wi-Fi calling on other devices, you can set up those devices to make and receive calls even when your iPhone isn't turned on or nearby. Learn about Wi-Fi calling.

    Use iPhone Cellular Calls

    Make a call on your iPad or iPod touch

    • Tap a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, Safari, or other app that automatically detects such data.
    • Or open the FaceTime app and enter the phone number in the search field. Tap the phone number in the search result, then tap Call.

    Make a call on your Mac

    • Move the pointer over any phone number in Contacts, Calendar, Safari, or other app that automatically detects such data. Click the arrow in the box that outlines the phone number, then choose Call [phone number] Using iPhone.
    • Or open the FaceTime app and enter a phone number in the search field. Control-click the phone number in the search result, then choose the phone number from the pop-up menu.

    Answer a call

    • On iPad or iPod touch, slide to answer the call.
    • On Mac, a notification appears when someone calls your iPhone. From there you can answer the call, send it to voicemail, or send the caller a message.

    To stop getting calls at one of your devices, just turn off the Calls from iPhone setting on that device. See the setup section above for details.

     

    If you have an iPhone, the text messages that you send and receive on your iPhone can appear on your Mac, iPad, and iPod touch as well. You can then continue the conversation from whichever device is closest to you.


    Take care.

    Hi, I have Continuity set correctly. I can make call prom Mac by my iPhone. I can read messages (SMS) on my Mac etc.

    But I can't hang up incoming call on my Mac. If I click on my Mac (right top corner - call notification) call on iPhone ends with message:  "call was terminated (failed)" (I have OSX in Czech language) . This problem is all time, when somebody calls me.
