VoWiFi is a complementary technology to VoLTE. VoWiFi enables to be connected even without a mobile signal. VoWiFi makes it possible for users to reliably make and receive calls, even when mobile network coverage is low.

VoWiFi Service allows you to call over a WiFi internet connection. Smartphone users can use the feature to call or text when there is poor coverage area. It provides seamless coverage between Wi-Fi and cellular networks so that if a user moves out of Wi-Fi coverage, the call transitions smoothly to the mobile network.

Note: You must have VoLTE service activated before using VoWiFi service.
