Hi, You’ll need to go to the phone that you want the calls on, go to settings, double tap on phone, and turn off “calls from other devices”, which should be set to “nearby.” These calls are not coming over cellular to the old phone, only over WiFi. HTH, Aleeha > On Sep 19, 2017, at 6:45 PM,

Really? You want to find a developer who will do it for free? Blind people have to eat, too. And, even if they did find someone to do it for free, you might sacrifice quality. So many blind people are so entitled. They think that everything should be free to them because they’re blind.
