How do I get my caller id to show up when I make a call?

iMore Question

New phone. All data switched over from old phone just fine. However people are telling me when I make a call they don't know it's me. How can I fix this problem so people will actually answer their phone when I call?

Hi, welcome to iMore.

Simply go to Settings > Phone > Show My Caller ID and make sure it's enabled (green).

Enjoy iMore and sign up if you have any other questions.

That setting doesn't show up on my 6s Plus. It must be a carrier-level setting. Either way, OP should also be able to contact his/her carrier directly to have them enable Caller ID.
