This "Transfer Phone Number" prompt started to pop up every time I unlocked my iPhone X since about a week ago. Why? How do I get rid of it? (iOS 16.6.1) (alien.top)

u/fifty2weekhi, is that an eSIM you have?

So I deleted an already "turned off" eSIM from a trial a couple of months ago. That didn't do anything. Finally I went to Settings | Cellular | Calls on Other Devices, and turned off "Allow Calls on Other Devices". And that seemed to have done it. I have no idea how/why it was turned on, or why it was fine for a couple of months until a week ago... possibly due to iOS upgrade.
