Call time is the amount of time you've spent on calls on your iPhone. You can see the total talk time for the current period or in your device's lifetime, and this can easily be found in your Cellular settings. If you want to check your call log history, you can do so from the Phone app. This wikiHow teaches you how to check the total amount of time you have spent on calls on your iPhone, both for your current billing cycle and for your phone's lifetime.

    • The number next to Current Period will reset to 0.
    • If you want to avoid unwanted charges , it’s a good idea to do this at the start of each billing cycle so the “Current Period” count is always correct. Set a reminder so that you never forget.
