I read all the tutorials, but i cannot get the hands off continuity to work. I want to be able to make calls to numbers on my iPad and respond to SMS. Anyone know what the problem could be?
SMS relay isn't out yet. Next month with Yosemite
I'm on beta and can't figure out what's up, anyone got ideas?
What about the sms and phone calls via the iPad and iPhone? thats what i meant. I know that its not going to work on the mac yet.
okay my friend is able to make phone calls from her iPad to numbers. what about that?
Im sorry but you're not being specific enough. Are both your phone and iPad on iOS 8 with iCloud set up on both? You should be able to receive calls on it to my understanding. I don't have an iPad so i don't know 100%
What iPad do you have?
I have the iPad air. Both have 8.0 and i am logged into the same iCloud account.
Settings, facetime, is iphone cellular calls on?
Don't you have to have Bluetooth on too?
They are on same wifi and both settings are on. I don't get it.

Try restarting both devices. It worked for me once I did that.
You might want to check if 'handoff' is enabled on your iPad and iPhone (in settings, go to General->Handoff & Suggested Apps and make sure handoff is turned on).
To clarify, Handoff does not need to be enabled on either device for phone calls to work. My iPhone 4S doesn't even have that option (Handoff is not supported on the 4S), and turning Handoff off on my iPad mini has no effect. I can still make regular calls from the mini, using the iPhone's cellular.
Not sure what is preventing the OP from making phone calls, though.
I have the iPad air. Both have 8.0 and i am logged into the same iCloud account.
Both have my number and yahoo email check off. And both have start convo from my number. They are both on same wifi network name.
