I also have an IPhone 5 that I use as, as it were, an IPod Touch, which, you probably already know, is an IPhone without the phone capability. I ported my number to my IPhone 6, so when I would try to make a call on the 5, just to see what it would do, it told me I couldn't, and to call a pound plus number if I wanted to turn it back on as a phone. So, I took phone out of the app switcher, and have continued to use it as an IPod Touch, on wifi. I didn't set it up as a new phone, I still had data on it that it was more convenient to leave on it, and have had no problems using it as I have outlined. I will be able to turn it back on as a phone in the future if something happens to this one.

Is it possible to use it like or similar to an Ipod/music player? If so what all does one need to do to it to get it setup for this? thanks.
