Call & Text on other devices

[GuzziBoy]

Hi, I've tried to get this to work without luck. I bought the new Z Fold4 and with the £100 gift splashed out on an Tab A7 lite to read the morning papers and browse YouTube etc. Then I thought I'll make them talk to each other so set up "call and text on other devices". Can I heck get it to work. Just to confirm I'm on the same network, I've set it up on both devices, I'm signed in on the same samsung account and Google account. If I send a text the icon goes round and round and eventually fails. If I make a call it drops out near immediately and says not able to call. Has anyone tried this with phone and A7 lite and is it expected to work or am I chasing dreams. Cheers

Call and text on other devices feature allows one Galaxy Device  to use another Galaxy device's network to make calls and send text messages. It does not mean that you can call from one device to another ( unless they are both on LTE with separate numbers).

Hope this helps.

Hi Sorry if I mislead you, I'm not trying to call the other devices. I'm trying to do what the feature is intended for. Use my A7 lite to text and make calls using my Z Fold 4's network. Not phone or text between the two.

Hi,

Have you tried to close the apps. Turn off the wifi and then turn on again and then try messaging?

I have a Watch4, i had this issue that the calls did not go through immediately. After a couple of retries, i managed. I know it's not the same thing, but worth a try.
