Bad cell service indoors? Stop dropping calls with Wi-Fi calling
If your cell signal is weak in a conference room, office or basement, you can still make crystal-clear calls. The solution is Wi-Fi calling.
What is Wi-Fi calling, and why do you need it?
Wi-Fi calling lets your phone make and receive calls and texts over a Wi-Fi network instead of a weak cell network.
- It uses your regular phone number—it’s not a separate app
- It’s the perfect fix for indoor “dead zones”
- Call quality is often much clearer
- It’s included with most mobile plans at no extra cost
How to enable Wi-Fi calling (it takes 30 seconds!)
For iPhone:
- Go to “Settings” > “Apps” > “Phone”
- Tap “Wi-Fi Calling”
- Toggle “Wi-Fi Calling on This iPhone” to on
For Android:
- Go to “Settings”
- In the “Search Settings” bar, type “Wi-Fi Calling”
- Tap “Wi-Fi Calling”
- Toggle it on
Important: When you enable Wi-Fi calling, you must confirm your address for 911 emergency services. This is so emergency responders can find you.
