I can not find the "Calls on Other Devices" option in Settings/Phone. All other options are there. Phone is running iOS ver 11.4.
Does anyone know why the "Calls on Other Devices" option disappeared?
Thanks,
Hank
iPhone 6s, iOS 11.4
Still not activated after a day?
It might take up to 24 hours to activate iMessage and FaceTime. If the issue continues after 24 hours, follow these steps:
- Make sure that your device has the latest version of iOS.
- If you're using an iPhone, contact your carrier to make sure that you can receive SMS messages.
- Contact Apple Support.

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.
Make and receive Wi-Fi calls from another device
If your carrier supports Wi-Fi Calling on iCloud-connected devices, you can also make and receive Wi-Fi calls on other devices. You can use Wi-Fi Calling on these devices, even if your iPhone isn't on the same Wi-Fi Network or turned on:
iPad or iPod touch with iOS 9 or later
Make sure that you're signed in to iCloud and FaceTime with the same Apple ID that you use on your iPhone. Also make sure that your devices have the latest software.
Sterling R & Joseph_S,
Thank you for trying help with my problem. I had to contact Apple Support. Apple put a block on my text related accounts due to the fact that I had received a bogus text phone number. Once Apple Support tech removed the block, my problems were solved.
Thanks again for you help. 🙂

Joseph_S,
Thank you for your prompt replay. Unfortunately, your suggestions did not solve my problem.
If I try to sign in to FaceTime on my phone, I get a message that says, "An error occurred during activation. Try again."
Also, if I try to sign in to iMessage on my MacBook Air, I get a message that says, "Could not sign in to iMessage. An error occurred during activation." If I try to sign in to FaceTime on my MacBook Air, I get the same type of message.
If I try to sign in to iCloud with my MacBook Air, I get a message that says, "Network is unavailable or slow. There was a problem loading the application." However, I can sign in to iCloud on my iPhone through our home network. Home network seems to be fine.
I have the same problems and error messages on my iPad.
This is quite a mystery!
Cheers,
Hank
