Simplified call continuity

A server device may identify an ongoing call associated with a received handover call. The handover call may have been placed via a first network, and the ongoing call may be associated with a second network. The server device may detect that the user device has performed a handover of the ongoing call from the second network to the first network; and may process the ongoing call via the first network based on the detecting. A user device may establish a first call via a first network; detect a handover condition associated with the first network; place, based on detecting the handover condition, a second call via a second network, the second call being placed while the first call is in progress; receive an instruction to perform a handover; and send and receive, based on receiving the instruction to perform the handover, call traffic via the second call.
