Recently, for incoming calls, the number calling me will show up twice on the recent call list in the phone app. One listing will be normal. One listing will have a "+" in front of the number and if you hit the little info circle, it will say "call answered on another device". Anyone else seeing this strange behavior? Any ideas?
 
I don't. There is a feature under the Cellular setting called "Allow on Other Devices". If your main device is signed into an iCloud account, all devices using that iCloud account nearby and on the same WiFi network can receive or make calls. Are you answering calls on the main device? You can turn that feature off if you don't use it.
 
I am allowing my iPad to receive my calls as you indicated. But it’s always been set up like that. Nothing has changed.
