All of us have encountered a situation where we had to make a phone call, but there was a problem with the network or the cellular network was unavailable. To solve this problem, network operators now provide Wi-Fi calling functions.
On an iPhone with this feature enabled, you can send and receive audio calls, FaceTime video calls, and iMessage texts via a Wi-Fi connection. This feature is useful if you need call service and cannot get a good cellular signal.
In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to enable Wi-Fi calling on your iPhone. Please note that you will need an iPhone 5c or higher, and your carrier must support this feature.
How to enable Wi-Fi calling on iPhone:
Step 1: On the iPhone, open the “Settings” app from the home screen.
Step 2: Now, in “Settings”, go to “Phone” (or “Cellular”) and click on “Wi-Fi Calling”.
Step 3: Toggle the “Wi-Fi call on this iPhone” option.
You will see a message on the screen explaining what information will be sent to the operator when Wi-Fi calling is enabled on your smartphone. You can click the “Enable” button to continue.
If you are enabling this feature for the first time, it will prompt you to enter an address. This allows the phone to make emergency calls. Once you have done this and agreed to the terms and conditions, the feature will be enabled.
To confirm that Wi-Fi calling is enabled, look for the word “Wi-Fi” with the operator’s name on your phone. If you see it, it means that the feature is enabled and you can make calls even if you can’t use the cellular network connection.
