How to set up Wi-Fi calling on iPhone
What is WiFi Calling:
Wi-Fi calling enables you to make and receive calls, even when you don’t have a cellular signal. Instead of using traditional cellular networks, uses a Wi-Fi network to make calls. This can be especially useful if you are traveling in areas with weak cellular signals, or if you are in a building with poor cellular reception. When using Wi-Fi calling, your iPhone will automatically switch back to cellular if you move out of range of the WiFi network. To use Wi-Fi calling on an iPhone, you need to have a Wi-Fi network that you can connect to. You also need to ensure that you have enabled Wi-Fi calling in your iPhone settings.
Benefits:
Setting up Wi-Fi calling on an iPhone has several benefits, including:
1. Better call quality: Wi-Fi calling uses a powerful internet connection to make and receive calls, resulting in crystal-clear voice quality.
2. Improved coverage: If you’re in an area with poor cellular coverage, Wi-Fi calling can help you make and receive calls without worrying about dropped calls or poor call quality.
3. Cost-effective: If you’re traveling abroad, Wi-Fi calling can help you save money on roaming charges and international call rates.
4. Convenience: Wi-Fi calling allows you to make and receive calls from anywhere in the world without the need for a cellular network.
5. Accessibility: Wi-Fi calling enables people with disabilities to access voice services more easily, especially if they live in areas with poor cellular coverage.
