Ask HN: I want to use two phones with one SIM
I understand the limitations of how SIM cards work. However i was wondering if there was a workaround for this. I would really like to daily an iPhone and an android phone. Ideal to carry one or another device when I need to without worrying about missing calls
Carriers have the option to have a single phone number for multiple cells phones. In the US on Verizon, this feature is called “Number Share”. Most carriers have this under some other name.
Thank you for this!
I remember a couple of years ago, I went with a colleague to a Telecom shop to clone his existing SIM card to use it in a different device, without cancelling the original one.
I guess it's an option you could try? /me-thinks
Data plan for both, voip app on both for the number you want to be called on. Enables you to also have a soft phone on the desktop if you’d like. I am partial to OpenPhone (no affiliation), but any voip service and app of some quality will do.
Set up Google Voice so all calls are forwarded to both phones.

The call quality is gonna sound like shit and be super laggy.
