Handoff
Pick up on one device where you left off on another. You can use Handoff with
Mail, Safari, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Maps, Messages, Reminders, Calendar,
Contacts, and even some third-party apps. For Handoff to work, your devices
must be signed in to iCloud using the same Apple ID, and they must be within
Bluetooth range of one another (about 33 feet or 10 meters).
Switch devices.
Swipe up from the bottom-left edge of the Lock screen (where you see the app’s
activity icon), or go to the multitasking screen, then tap the app. On your Mac,
open the app you were using on your iOS device.
Disable Handoff on your devices.
Go to Settings > General > Handoff & Suggested Apps.
Disable Handoff on your Mac.
Go to System Preferences > General, then turn off “Allow Handoff between this
Mac and your iCloud devices.”
Phone calls
Make and receive phone calls on your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac, as long as your
iPhone and other devices are signed in to iCloud and FaceTime with the same
Apple ID. With iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite, your iPhone needs to be on the same
Wi-Fi network as your other devices.
Make a phone call on iPad.
Tap a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, FaceTime, Messages, Spotlight, or
Safari.
Note: Your iPad must be connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Messages
If your iPhone (with iOS 8 or later) is signed into iMessage using the same
Apple ID as your iPad, you can also send and receive SMS and MMS messages
on your iPad. Charges may apply to the text messaging service for your iPhone.
Instant Hotspot
You can use Instant Hotspot on your iPhone (with iOS 8 or later) or iPad (cellular
models with iOS 8 or later) to provide Internet access to your other iOS devices
