Enable Cellular Continuity in iOS 9 To Make Calls on iPad and Mac When Your iPhone is Off

Cellular Continuitywas introduced by Apple in iOS 8 which allows users to answer phone calls through Mac or iPad when their iPhone is away. However, this feature required iPhone, Mac or iPad in the same Wi-Fi Network.

With iOS 9, you don’t need your iPhone to be on the same network as your iPad or Mac to receive a call.

T- Mobile has come the first carrier to support cellular Continuity and it is expected that other carriers will also support this feature once iOS 9 is released to public.
