How to answer phone calls on Samsung Galaxy Tablet and Galaxy Watch by linking with a Galaxy Phone
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 9. 07. 2024
- Connect the Samsung Tab Tablet to Samsung Galaxy Mobile Phone to answer phone calls and text message on the tablet. This works with the Galaxy Tab S6 and S7 WiFi model and does not require the tablet to be a 4G or 5G tablet.
Adding Galaxy watch Active 2 to the ecosystem, an on-going phone call can be transferred from the phone to the watch to the tablet. In this video, I will show you how to transfer the on-going phone call from one device to another without disconnecting the call. No need to put down the phone and call back in a minute.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Live can also be used to take phone calls when connected to the Galaxy Tablet.

Does this work if the phone is far far away from tablet? Lets say the phone is home and tablet is in office?
Thanks @FBAMAP, this is such an interesting question and I did a quick test. I disconnected my phone from my home WiFi, so it's on mobile data internet. I then switch my tablet to another phone's mobile hotspot so the tablet is connected to the Internet via another phone's internet. This set-up still works, the phone call still goes to both my phone and my tablet. When I disconnected the tablet from the Internet, it does not work anymore. So technically, the answer to your question is Yes it should work as long as both the linked phone and tablet are connected to the Internet. Sorry I didn't test by literally bringing my tablet to the office and leaving the phone at home. Thanks for your question, leading me to such a good finding.
@@SkyPerspective thanks man, appreciate it
I actually tried it once, leaving phone at home but bringing cellular tablet with me outside. Calling can work, but when I answer from the tablet I get comments that I took so long to answer. It's inconvenient to pocket as usual. Texting is still fast though. But lately, recent updates to the calling feature require the same wifi network to call remotely, so this use case might not be possible anymore. It was fun while it lasted.
Edit: I learned my local carrier hasn't supported VoLTE for prepaid compared to others, so the experience may be different if you use that.
It wont work on my a7 lite tablet đą
It may wonât work on certain Samsung devices. It can probably only work on newer ones I donât know.
*âŁEasy to read in the Sun. Easy to download books. Got it for my wife she **Newest.Technology** Loves it.đđđđđ*
Thanks! đ
Thank you! Your video is very easy to follow and quite helpful.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
Thank you buddy this is the most detailed video about this topic
Thanks Sean, glad my video is useful. Thanks for letting me know. Appreciate it.
Thanks for your great video and explanation man !! I have a question , could we set up the call forwarding on different country ? Example the phone with SIM card is in Australia and tablet is in Singapore ? Both device connecting different WiFi or cellular data but logged in same Samsung account , does it works ?
excellent video...thanks
Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks for this. Works great. I used it today.
Thanks for letting me know this video helped you.
Thank you đ
Very welcome.
I have oppo A9 trying to link it with Galaxy Tab S6 Lite would it work?
Don't think it will work because both the phone and tablet need to sign in to the same Samsung Account. Don't think we can sign in Oppo phone to Samsung account.
Can the phone and tablet remain connected to use the same feature away from wifi? For example, can you use hotspot to connect or even a special app?
Hi Patrick, I set my phone to use mobile internet, and connect my tablet to my phone's mobile hotspot. No, it doesn't work. The phone call only comes to my phone and not my tablet.
After that, I switch both my phone and tablet to use my home's WiFi, and it works this time.
If i pickup call on galaxy watch , Bluetooth variant . Will it be audible in buds
Although I did as you beautifully directed, my 22 Altra does not connect to my 7+ tab. Do you recommend a troubleshooting guide?
This is the set up guide. www.samsung.com/au/support/mobile-devices/using-call-text-on-other-devices/
Hopefully that helps.
Dumb question, but, this be accomplished using an iPhone with the S6 tablet?
Hi Ron, unfortunately no. Don't think IPhone will work with Samsung tablets.
Anybody know which android versions are compatible?? My 2018 samsung A8 doesnt have the setting i cant connect to my samsung tab S5e.....
Hi, first of all of you explanation is amazing. I already love Samsung ecosystem but my biggest concern is the privacy. I tried reading through their privacy and security but I hardly understood how this feature works đ .
Thanks, I try my best to explain well. Glad you like it. What's your concern about Samsung privacy? Are you concern with your call going to other devices?
Thank you, please about the privacy, will it be end to end encrypted? Or will Samsung and third-parties be able to listen or monitor our text messages and or our calls?
BTW sorry for the late response.
Good afternoon. Can you please tell me if you can directly connect the galaxy watch 5 to the galaxy tab s6 tablet? And if possible, how to do it?
I haven't done this before so I am not sure. There were comments in this video that someone said it can be done, but I don't remember them saying how it can be done.
Thanks for the tutorial. Take note it would not work until I switched on the mobile data.
Another question man, do i need to have a sim card on my tablet or do i need to connect to same wifi? Because i have a data only sim card on my tab s7 plus so if i answer or make a call from that sim card I'm getting charge for that. So I'm just wondering if the call forwarding to my tab through the sim or over internet connection? Thank you
If you follow my method, it won't be using the data-only-sim in your tablet. As long as both your phone and tablet are registered on the same samsung account, it should just work. You may need Internet connection, not necessarily WiFi. I got this working all the time even when I am outside without wifi. By the way, my tablet is the basic model, which doesn't have a sim card slot to insert a sim card, and it still works on my set up. So pretty sure the phone call answered on our tablet is charged to the SIM in the phone. How this helps.
@@SkyPerspective interesting, thank you so much for your reply man đ
@@angelopeiris You are very welcome. I like discussing tech.
Does it work vice versa. I mean if I have SIM tablet with call feature like Tab A8 and I want to answer call on phone which is WiFi only?
This is such a good question. I don't have a SIM tablet to test this. My guess is when we configure the phone to take phone calls from the tablet, that's the part where the phone will not act as a recipient of another phone because it already has its own SIM. I don't know. This is my guess. Maybe someone who have this set up can confirm this when they see this message thread.
Thanks for a great video. I've a cellular Tablet with Bluetooth hearing aids capabilities and noticed that the tablet can receive text and calls. I've in fact reduced the number of devices in my life to just the tablet. Though hypothetical I'm curious on whether I need another sim card, if I was to get a watch (or phone) and how close to each other device need to be, or can they be far apart, eg left in the car or at home, and lastly can they be different android brands or do they need to be the same manufacturer
Hi John, your questions actually depend on quite a number of factors such as the brand of the devices and your telco network restrictions and more. If you want to get another device, talk to your telco to see if you need to get another sim card, would be the way to go.
I recommend staying with the same device family (Android or Apple iOS) and if possible stand with the same brand.
Devices that connect via Bluetooth usually can still work within 10 meters (direct line of sight), this also depends on the Bluetooth version and device battery strength. Sorry the answer depends on so many factors.
Thank you for this video.
I have a problem and I hope you can help me with.
I bought a new galaxy tab s7 fe and active 2 watch , and I can't connect them both.
Can you explain me how to do this.
And thanks again.
Hmm.... I am not sure, but I don't think the galaxy watch is designed to connect to a tablet. It only connects to a phone. Have you tried downloading the galaxy wearable app on your tablet and try connecting? Hopefully someone who have successfully done this can share their experience.
@@SkyPerspective Thanks đ
You are welcome. Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for video man, entire CZcams I found only your video helpful, I have got galaxy watch 4 classic and phone is Galaxy A71 , but some reason this remote connection doesn't work and also that feature call text and call on other devices doesn't work over Wi-Fi. Can you please help đ
Hi Hemant Yadav, Thanks for the kudos. In order to connect galaxy watch to a galaxy phone, we should use galaxy wearable app. "Call and Text on other devices" is to link galaxy phone and galaxy tablet.
Does it work between 2 phones? I have a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with a defected network and I'm wondering if i can receive calls on it from my galaxy S10?
Secondly, can it work on a WIFI only tablet?
Hi Ransford, to your second question, yes, my tablet in this video is a WiFi only tablet.
I haven't tested it against two phones, my guess is I don't think phone-phone will work. You can always give it a go between your Note 20 Ultra and S10. When you said defected network, do you mean the Mobile network or the WiFi on your Note 20?
Need help... I have a galaxy s7plus tablet and note 20 ultra am I able to make calls and answer calls on the s7 plus tablet?
Hi Diana, if you mean galaxy tab s7+ then yes I think you should be able to link it to your note 20 ultra to answer calls on your tablet. Try the following steps.
1. Sign in to the same samsung account on both your tablet and phone.
2. Enable the call and text on other devices setting on both your tablet and phone.
3. Try out calling your phone.
Hopefully this works for you. Let me know how you go.
I can't find the "call & text on other device " option on my phone. Could you tell me if it works in every Samsung devices?
I use s23ultra and samsung A31
On your s23 ultra, go to "Connected devices" settings to find the "Call & text..." setting. Yes they have moved it. And I dont think this feature will work on A series Samsung tablets unfortunately.
@@SkyPerspective oky, thank you.
I read today on a Samsung web page that this feature is only available in India and I'm Mozambican living in Mozambique. so I think that's the reason
Does this feature work with other Samsung tab and non samsung mobile.?
Don't think it will work on non samsung tablet because this feature requires us to register both our phone and tablet on the same samsung account. Yes I think this should work on tab s6 lite and the new tab s7, however I am not certain because I don't have those tablets to confirm that.
As in your pinned comment, does this still work remotely as it did 7 months ago? For instance, leaving my Note10+ at home and using a linked compatible tablet (with no sim - only wifi) which is miles away on a different wifi network? Thanks. Great video!
Hi R Graz, I just did the same test for you now. It works, but I did the test with all my devices at home, I didn't leave my phone at home and take my tablet out to another outside location. I just switched to use mobile hotspot which is the same as me bring it to another outside location. Hope this helps. By the way, what's your idea?
@@SkyPerspective Amazing. Thanks so much!
@@rgraz4929 all good. glad I can help.
i have a galaxy tab s2 and i want to be able to text and call off my tablet but i don't want to want my number set up to my tablet so please show me how to do that
I'm getting a new phone, but I'm really bad for breaking them. So I think when I spend time drinking outside in the garden I'll just keep using my old phone, linked to my new one over wifi (kept safely in the house). With this feature no need to worry about breaking a new phone!
That's a brilliant idea. Thanks for sharing.
Hi.
I really love your this video, how you deeply explain this feature â€
I just want to know that this feature is only available in cellular only version (tablet) or it is available in WIFI version (tablet) also ?
Hi Harkamal, thanks a lot for your feedback. It should work with both types.Mine is a WiFi non-cellular version of galaxy tab s6 and it works.
Do it support WhatsApp ?
Wifi, non-cellular version
@@harkamalsingh5559 Nah.... this is a phone call feature that links between Samsung native applications. Doesn't work with WhatsApp. I don't think WhatsApp is available on tablets anyway.
â@@SkyPerspective So if the compatible devices you're linking to (tablet/watch) have with no sim/cell connectivity, do they still come with a phone and message apps by default or did you have to install them? Thx.
If I put a sim card on my S7+ tab directly without using any phone , will i be able to make phone calls or not ? Thank you
Hi Ines, I don't have a Tab S7+ sim card version, so not sure about this. Hopefully, someone else having that Tab S7+, seeing this message can confirm.
I have note 10 and galaxy s8 and the watch 4 but I can't find the call & text on both , what to do, other think please, I don't know why I can't link my watch 4 with the tablet,thanks dear
It's under advance settings within the settings menu. Try searching for "Call & text" in the settings menu, don't search for "Call and text".
will this work if my phone is on do not disturb? i normally do it when im using my tab and needing to record something on my phone so i put it on do not disturb but i still dont want to miss any calls..
I just tested it for you. I set my phone to do not disturb mode while I have this calls to tablet feature enabled. As I use my tablet, phone call comes in, the phone call appears on my tablet screen for me to accept or reject, however, both the phone and tablet did not ring and vibrate. So yes you will be able to see the phone call popping up on your tablet if you are using your tablet. Hope this make sense.
@@SkyPerspective Yes it did, thank you smđ
@@eiyamaev thanks, I learnt something new because of your question.
Can we copy paste across device such as from note 10 to the galaxy tab?
I usually just copy and paste through Google Keep because it sync so fast. Having said that, yes we can copy and paste across galaxy devices. Have a look

Thanks for asking the question.
Hi, your video is very helpful. My phone just snatched away which my watch 4 is connected, now I wanted it to connect to my tablet s7 plus, but upon pairing, tablet s7 plus shows that galaxy wearable cannot be connected to a tablet. Did you had this issue? I just want to connect my watch to my tablet. Thank you
Hi Steve, technically Samsung doesn't support nor recommend connecting galaxy watch to a tablet. They recommend connecting to phone running Wearable app. Some other viewers said that is possible but difficult. Hopefully they can help comment on this when they see this comment thread. I am not sure how to do it.
@@SkyPerspective thanks for the prompt response! More subscribers to come
Wonderful! Thanks!
Amazing vidđđ!
Incredible! In Samsung S7 + and Watch 3 the same, but Tablet and watch are LTE? Tablet yes it seems. I wonder if to pair Tablet and watch it is a requirement that they be 2 LTE.
đ€Mmm...And same problem with new Tablet S8/+?. đ
Thanks. My tablet is Tab s6 and it's the Wi-Fi version, not the LTE version. I am not sure as I pair my watch with my phone, not my tablet. I think someone in below comments has successfully pair the watch with their tablet, if that's what you are asking.
Hi brother. Thanks for the video
would it be correct to say that this will not work with non- Samsung phone?
Yes, this won't work without Samsung devices.
Nice
Thanks for your feedback.
Do you have an LTE or Bluetooth watch?
Bluetooth.
I have the Galaxy S7 phone and 2019 Galaxy Tab A. Will this work?
Hi there, I just checked for you on Galaxy Tab A and it does not have this feature. I think this feature is only available on Samsung Galaxy high end devices.
Did it work on sm t510 tab
I am not sure, but I doubt so.
Thanks for this video man, unfortunately i recently switched to a esim from a sim card because of that it doesn't allow me to turn on the call & text on other device on my note 20 ultra đ. Looks like i have to get the sim card again đđđ„Č
Oh........ Interesting.
I am not familiar with esim. Sorry.
I normal just turn on my mobile hotspot on my note 10 to give my tablet Internet, so I never bought the mobile data version of all my tablets. I have used the tab A, tab s4, and now tab s6.
@@SkyPerspective how did you make the galaxy tab A work? I have the samsung galaxy Tab A 10.1 and it doesnt give me option
@@isabelgutierrez1196 I was saying I have used the Tab A, and Tab S4. I don't mean to say I made the Tab A work with this answering phone call on tablet function.
@@SkyPerspective
Sir yesterday I bought tab S6 lite but don't know whether it is good or not. Please let me know about its everything i. e overall performance. I want to know about my choice of selecting good or bad device.
I tried to connect my Watch 4 Classic LTE to my Tab S7 Plus 5G and it did not pair. Is it essential to have an actual phone even though my tablet is 5G/LTE? Thanks.
Hi Vernal, not essential, and it really depends on how much extra features you intend to get out of the watch. I am not certain, but I believe the galaxy wearable app only works on a phone, and not on a tablet. The galaxy wearable app can see a lot more information and stats compared to what you see on your watch.
@@SkyPerspective Thanks. I've tried...Looks like having an 5G/LTE is useless with the Watch 4. Sad. Ho hum.
@@VernalScott not entirely useless. You can connect galaxy buds to the watch directly without your phone, stream and listen to music from spotify, make phone calls, and so on. Haven't tried these, but if I am not wrong you should also be able to listen to pod cast and pay using Samsung pay on your watch too, all without your phone connected. Others with LTE watch version might be able to confirm this.
@@SkyPerspective Thanks
good video could you help me with a tip or tutorial to connect galaxy watch 4 with galaxys7plus 5g in advance thanks and regards đ€
Hi Frank, happy to help, but I don't have the watch and phone you mentioned to make a video on. By the way with your Galaxy S7 are you referring to the Galaxy S7 phone or the Galaxy Tab S7 tablet?
With the phone, you can try downloading the Samsung Wearable app from google play store and that app will be able to help you fully connect your galaxy watch 4 to your phone. If you are using a Galaxy S7 phone, hopefully the Android version is not too old to run the Wearable app. Hope this help.
Can we connect galaxy watch to samsung tablet directly without phone?
This depends on your carrier. Some American carriers do not allow calls on tablets
Hi. Great video and really helpful, so can you help me please.
I have the galaxy S7 plus smartphone, but being visually impaired, I am struggling to see the screen.
I am looking for an 8 inch tablet, I can use like my smart phone, but need one I can answer like a phone, not always having to use it on speaker. I also need a flash on the camera, so I can use it in low light, like in shops, so I can see the products.
Finally, I need it to have Android 9 OS, so I can use the accessibility features and I need the usual bluetooth connections etc.
I have been searching for days now, but cannot find a tablet with the specs I need.
Please, please, can you give some recommendations for an android tablet with the features mentioned, so I can get out and about again.
Thank you in advance and keep up the great work
Martin Jones
Hi Martin, Glad to help. Does it have to be 8 inch? If not, you can consider getting Samsung Galaxy Tab S series. Like the Tab S6 (mine), or the newer Tab S7 and S8. They comes in 10 inches to 12 inches. It's better and easier for you to visually see as well. These Galaxy S-series are more feature rich with lots more connectivity features like I showed in this video. Get the LTE version so you can put a SIM Card in there and have data and Internet straight on the tablet. I know another Tech CZcamsr who is also visually impaired, and might be able to give you better advice than me. I will try to see if I can connect him to comment this thread.
Hey mat. Since you have the galaxy S7, Iâd suggest going for the galaxy tab S7. Itâs very powerful, supports cellular, and has the accessibility features you need. HTH.
I can't find...call and text on other devices in my tablet galaxy S7.... im looked in settings advanced features and all tablet...what can I do?
Hi there, I suspect this feature is available only on new Galaxy devices running latest operating system.
my galaxy note 10 is broken, i have an old s7. can I use the s7 for calls this way?
Hi, I am not very sure about s7, it depends on whether Samsung has latest OS updates for s7 that contain this features. Maybe someone with s7 can confirm here on this comment soon.
My galaxy watch 4 isn't in the linked devices by default and there's no options in the remote connection settings. Why is that
Hi, the linked devices menu links the phone to tablet, it does not link to the galaxy watch. In order to answer calls and read text on our galaxy watch, we would be connecting via Samsung Galaxy wearable app. Hope this helps.
Is there any way to make it work with Samsung Note 9 running on Android 8.1?
Hi there, I am not sure, but I doubt so. Samsung build this feature only on later versions of One UI.
@@SkyPerspective that's what I guessed too.. thanks for responding đ
Does this work with tab a7 lite or a8?
Hi Tanay, I haven't used the Tab A7 lite and A8, but I suspect this doesn't work for A7 lite and A8. They are not listed in the compatible model list on samsung website. Have a look www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00083152/
It don't work with Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2019

Hi mohamed, (1) make sure you have both phones signed in to the same Samsung account; (2) make sure you have the "Call and Text on other devices" enabled on both phones and connect to the phones as shown in 1:58 Hope this helps.

Can you answer your phone on the tablet if it's only wi-fi tablet, not data connected? Thanks
Yes we can. The tablet I am using for demonstration in this video is the WiFi version tablet.
@@SkyPerspective thanks so muchâ€ïž
What about the buds on the watch? Could you answer the call on the watch and put in the buds to continue the conversation? #videoidea
No, even when my galaxy buds are connected directly to my galaxy watch, when I pull the phone call over to the watch, the watch puts the phone call on the watch loud speaker and watch mic. Seems like the buds live connecting to the watch is for music only. Now, my galaxy watch active 2 is a WiFi version, not the cellular version, so maybe the cellular version may work differently. Perhaps someone using the cellular version galaxy watch can let us know.

No usually only in the S series.

It should if both the Verizon phone and your tablet are logged in to the same Samsung account and they both have this feature.

In the "Call & text on other devices" settings on your tablet, you can individually switch on and off "Calls" and "Messages" to be synced. Could you turned off the "Messages" option ?

â@@JesusChrist-xm5rt And your Samsung Tab S6 is the WiFi version, not the mobile SIM card version?
Given you have a Galaxy Watch 4, have you tried installing Wear OS app from Google? I know Watch 4 is built on top of Wear OS. However, please research this and do this carefully in case it breaks your Watch 4 default connection with Samsung Wearable app.
I don't have a Watch 4 to try this out, unfortunately, hopefully, someone with Watch 4 can confirm if they have successfully made it work with Wear OS on tablet.
Does this works on galaxy tab a8?
My guess is no, I don't think so.
This method did not work for me is it because ot the samsung I have or does this not work anymore(my samsung is samsung galaxy a12
From other viewers comments it seems like this feature doesn't work on A series Samsung phones.
I looked for this to turn off this feature. Was so annoying to get calls on my tablet. Especially when my ringer was turned off.
Do you need a galaxy phone to be able to do this?
Yes. You will need to login to the same samsung account on your galaxy devices in order to do this.
How do i link my samsung a7 lite tablet and samsung phone j7 for call and text on other device?
Hi thanks for your question. If you can't find the settings in your Samsung tablet and phone models, most likely this feature is not available in those models. Hope this helps.
@@SkyPerspective thank you.. it available on my tablet but not on my phoneđ
You are welcome. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
We are looking for a basic functionality where user can insert 5 g sim in the tablet and can make and receive calls like a regular phone .instead of depending on the phone .and no third-party application or workaround. That will solve the puzzle.
Hey may I ask will it still work if the phone is flat?
Hi there, my galaxy tablet is the WiFi version and does not take sim card. My phone makes the phone call, so when I take the call on my tablet or my watch, my phone is still needed to connect to the phone call. Hope this make sense.
@@SkyPerspective so phone needs battery to send the calls over?
Yes that's right. It won't work if my phone's battery is flat.
Does not work on my galaxy tablet 9.6. Says it is not available!!!
Is this what I can do with any phone tablet watch ...
No I don't think all tablet and watch can do this. I am pretty sure the tablet, phone and watch need to be in from the same eco-system like Samsung or Apple. I am not sure if Apple iPad Apple watch and iPhone can do the same. Maybe someone can help confirm this?
Is it work with 2 phones?
I haven't tried it before but I doubt so. In the settings, it lets you pick the specific phone you want to link up, so we can only pick one phone.
How to accept a incoming call on the tablet ?
Can we link with some other phone than samsung
Unfortunately no, at least not for this method. This is the reason why sometimes its good to go with the same brand eco system. Hope this helps.
I search in the settings but it didnt come up with anything starting with the word calls. Di they change this?
What's the model of your phone and tablet?
@@SkyPerspective note 8 and galaxy s7fe
Most likely the software version is too old and doesn't support this feature.
@@SkyPerspective ok thank you!
I HAVE A SAMSUNG TAB A7 LITE, EVERY TIME I TRY AND MAKE A PHONE CALL I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE TELLING ME THAT" CONTACTS MUT BE THE DEFAULT APP TO MAKE CALLS". HOW DO I REMEDY THIS PROBEM?
Go to your settings and look for applications settings. Set the Contact application as the default.
How to connect watch active (8f6c) to tab s7 plus? It says error opening app
Hi TechFun, I don't think you can. Galaxy wearable app running on tablet does not connect to galaxy watches.
@@SkyPerspective thanks
Won't work now. I can't find it on my note 20 ultra.
It's still on my new Galaxy S21. Thanks for sharing your experience, maybe it's not available for Note 20 Ultra. Interesting.
@@SkyPerspective I figured out it is because I'm on very Verizon.
My kids have i pads and can call their grandma on her iphone. I cannot stand apple, i have the galaxsy s 23 ultra and its a phone thats is amazing beyond words.
Is there anyway i can call this tablet from my phkne to talk to my kids if im not home?
I haven't tried this before, but I think you should be able to use Google Chat. support.google.com/chat/answer/7653601?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DiOS
phone to another phone possible calling ????????????????????
I've tried so many things to get my tablet and phone connected đąđą my samsung galaxy tab 6 lite does not have this feature! What can I do
Yes time
I've got it now â€ïž
@PatThacker wonderful. Glad to know that. Apologies on the partial reply, I feel asleep typing and must have accidentally pressed the sent button đ
Phone screen is broke can't read it to transfer calls to tablet
I need to make a phone call off this tablet. I have eifi
how do i sync my contacts from my phone to my tab so the name of the call shows up not just the number please help me hahaha and thank you
I have an jpad ..how i do?
I did a bit of research, unfortunately, most likely we cannot link up a samsung galaxy phone with a ipad to answer calls because ipad is from Apple not Samsung. When you upgrade your device next time consider getting device from same ecosystem like iPhone and ipad. Hope this helps.
@@SkyPerspective but I have samsung m20 mobile with no option of call and message, I recently bought s6 tablet.
Sad samsung giving this option to premium phones only
@@ahambhramasmii Yes, you are correct. I have a Samsung A11, and it does not have this feature too.
@@SkyPerspective seem like that this feature is only available on S and Note series
@@10GTech Yes that's right.
Isn't working with galaxy a13
I connect with tab s6 lite?
Hi Md Humayun Kabir, I don't have a Tab S6 lite to confirm this, but based on this guide on the Samsung web site, the Tab S6 lite is not listed for this feature. So maybe Tab S6 lite is not supported.
www.samsung.com/au/support/mobile-devices/using-call-text-on-other-devices/
Hopefully, someone who uses Tab S6 lite would be kind enough to confirm this, when they see this comment.
Ok thanks for this guide
@@SkyPerspective Tab S6 lite has feature of Call & Text on another device.
Also let me know if Samsung Galaxy M30 supports this feature.
@@tanushrishrikhande8522 â Thanks for letting us know about Tab S6 lite having this feature. I don't have Galaxy M30 to test this. Hopefully, someone with M30 can confirm this soon.
@@SkyPerspective Hopefully you will let me know if you will be acknowledged about M30.
Does this work when calling the phone where the number is registered?
What do you mean by number is registered? As in caller-id is blocked?
@SkyPerspective like when i call my mother the it does not let me do it
@@SkyPerspective like when registering the tablet to the phone and when you call the phone from your tablet it does not call
Yes that won't work. The tablet is like an extension of the phone calling with the same phone number. Using the tablet to call the phone is exactly the same as using the phone to call itself, which won't work.
@@SkyPerspective Ok
Only Samsung phone this feature is there??
Hey, this feature doesn't work for tab s7 plus yet..... This is what Samsung Tech told me themselves đđđ
Hey, this is so interesting. One would expect newer models to have all features of the old model. I wonder why it's not supported in the new tab S7+ yet. Thanks for sharing this information to those who are thinking of upgrading... like me. đ
