If there's one thing Apple is good at, it's creating a pretty decent ecosystem where everything is genuinely connected. You could get notifications on your Apple Watch or even pick phone calls on your MacBook.

But the thing is, not everyone wants this, and that's understandable. In this guide, you will learn how to turn off Apple's continuity feature so your MacBook or your iPad doesn't randomly start ringing when you get a call from your phone.

How to Stop iPhone Calls and FaceTime Alerts from Appearing on Your iPad

Step 1: On your iPhone, open the "Settings" app (This is the app with the gear icon.)

Step 2: Scroll down and tap on "Apps"

Step 3: Then tap on "Phone"

Step 4: Tap on "Calls on Other Devices"

Step 5: Toggle off "Allow Calls on Other Devices."

Conclusion

That’s it, your iPad, or any other devices signed in to your Cloud account, will no longer light up or ring when your iPhone receives a call or FaceTime alert.

If you ever change your mind, you can turn the feature back on just as easily. It’s all about choosing how connected you want your Apple devices to be.
