Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities jefffromrodeo,


1: On your iPhone, go to Settings  > Cellular.

2: If your iPhone has Dual SIM, choose a line (below SIMs).

3: Do any of the following:

  • Tap Calls on Other Devices, turn off Allow Calls on Other Devices.

(While enabled, this option allows other devices where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID to make and receive calls when they’re nearby your iPhone and connected to Wi-Fi.)

  • Tap Wi-Fi Calling, then turn off Add Wi-Fi Calling For Other Devices.

(When enabled, this allows other devices where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID to make and receive calls even when your iPhone isn’t nearby.)

4: On your iPhone that you do not want receiving calls from other devices, go to Settings > FaceTime, then turn on FaceTime and Calls from iPhone.


You can learn how to re-enable the feature, here: Allow phone calls on your iPad, iPod touch, and Mac

We hope this helps!
