Have you found yourself in the middle of something important on your Mac and your iPhone starts ringing across the room? Wouldn’t it be great if you could answer that call right from your Mac? Thanks to Apple’s interconnected ecosystem, you can.
First things first, you need an iPhone with iOS 8.1 or later and a Mac with OS X Yosemite or later. Check your devices; chances are they’re already compatible.
Before you start dialling, there’s a bit of setup to do.
Both devices need to be on the same network and use the same Apple ID.
On your iPhone, go to Settings > Cellular or Phone > Calls on Other Devices.
Turn on ‘Allow Calls on Other Devices’ and select your Mac.
On your Mac, open the FaceTime app, click on FaceTime in the dropdown menu and click on Settings. Check ‘Calls From iPhone’.
Now, you’re all set! You can make a call through the FaceTime app or Contacts. Just select a contact or enter a number, and hit call. It’s as simple as that.
