How to disable phone calls on your Apple Watch

Getting too many phone calls on your Apple Watch? While you can easily call someone or receive calls directly from the watch, sometimes the same feature can become bothersome. The following steps will be helpful in denying the calls directly on your Apple Watch and fix the problem at your end.

 

Why you may want to disable the phone calls feature on your Apple Watch?

The advantages of the Apple Watch can not be ignored when you are not near your iPhone. A simple tap on the watch and you can take up that important call right away. But, there are some times when you want to stay away from all the calls. Like, if you have gone out for your jogging, and you are getting spammed with sales and marketing calls. If that is the case, we are here for you.

The calls that you get on your iPhone gets directly shared to your Apple Watch. So, there is a toggle that allows the moderator to ‘mirror’ the calls on your wearable. We have to make a change in that particular settings and turn off the call notification system on the watch. We recommend you adhere to the steps mentioned here, and it will be done in no time.
