Continuity features connect iPad with your iPhone, iPod touch, and Mac so they can work together as one. You can start an email or document on iPad, for example, then pick up where you left off on your iPod touch or Mac. Or let iPad use iPhone to make phone calls or send SMS or MMS text messages.

Continuity features require iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite, and work with iPhone 5 or later, iPod touch (5th generation) or later, iPad (4th generation) or later, and supported Mac computers. For more information, see support.apple.com/kb/HT6337.

For Handoff to work, your devices must be signed in to iCloud using the same Apple ID, and they must be within Bluetooth range of one another (about 33 feet or 10 meters).
