<p>The iPad has offered the ability to make calls via the iPhone's cellular connection through Apple's Continuity feature, but the experience was not very smooth.

<p>Moreover, the Phone app on iPhones also received an update, featuring a refined design that combines the Favorites, Recents, and Voicemail tabs into one streamlined Calls tab while still allowing users the option to revert to a classic format. The app introduces useful features like Call Screening to filter unwanted calls, Hold Assist to alert users when a live person is on the line, and Live Translation for real-time conversation translation during calls.</p>
