RE: further questions about wifi calling

[Paula Jordan]

Hi Sieghard and all. Thanks for the info. I did finally get Wi-Fi calling set 
up, however, since you mentioned screen recognition I thought it might be worth 
a look. However, I can’t find it anywhere in settings. Any help would be 
appreciated. Thanks.

God bless!

Do you maybe have screen recognition turned on? I already have my Wi-Fi calling 
set up, but I didn't have any issues and just now I went to change my emergency 
address and while I had a submit button at the bottom, there was nothing about 
any checkboxes and so on.

If you still can't figure it out why don't you call Apple Accessibility and ask 
if they could look at your screen as you are doing this and they can probably 
give you some guidance.

Hi, I’m trying once again to set up wifi calling.I swipe past “terms and

Wifi calling working I think

[Paula Jordan]

Hi everyone, I double tapped on all those checkmark. Even though they still
said unchecked, they apparently were checked because the setting now says
wifi calling on. Go figure!

wifi calling

[Paula Jordan]

It seems to be my night for needing help and information.  Thanks to this
group for your willingness to share info.  I've read that wifi calling can
improve call quality so I'm trying to set up wifi calling and I get this
long spiel about 911 calls.  I can't seem to get past where it talks about
setting up your address for emergency calls.  Could someone please clarify
and tell me how to set up wifi calling?  If this is too basic you can write
me at pau...@roadrunner.com <mailto:pau...@roadrunner.com> . 

Thanks as always.

God bless!

Re: WiFi calling

[Mike B.]

Hi Marie,

We use wifi calling exclusively at either home even though we have a good 
Verizon signal.  I guess you could say using wifi is some added insurance 
against dropped calls, unless you lose your internet service!  LOL  Give it 
a try just to experiment and see how you like it.  A tip, if you have both 2 
& 5G networks available, the 2G has better range and is a little slower, but 
the 5G hasbetter speed with a little less range.  Either way I think you'll 
do better with either the 2 or 5g wifi than strictly using the Verizon 
signal.

Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.  Go Dodgers!
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please 
everybody.

You can go into Settings -> Cellular and turn off cellular data. You can

My Apple devices don't support wifi calling. I'm worried that I've been

Voip voice calls, the most obvious and extremely accessible one would be Skype, 
then there is Facetime Audio if you have people who also have iPhones, Facebook 
allows for voice and video calls and Whats App allows for voice calls. Of all 
the ones I mentioned Skype is the only one where you can also make calls to 
regular phone numbers without the person having a Skype account, but that of 
course requires a subscription or credit.

Sieghard

You could use a VOIP app, like Skype, Duo or other apps.

If your phone and your carrier supports wifi calling then you can make and 
receive texts and calls over wifi when you don't have cellular service. When 
I've used it it's just been automatic and transparent. I'm not sure if you can 
force a call to go over wifi calling even if you have a good cell connection.

RE: Does WIFI Calling Save Battery Life?

WiFi calling must be supported by your carrier and you don't turn off your 
phone's normal radio.

Re: Does WIFI Calling Save Battery Life?

[Christopher Chaltain]

If you would normally have both your cellular and wifi radios on, and 
you're turning off your cellular radio and using wifi calling then yes, 
you would save battery life.


If you'll still have both radios on and your just using wifi calling 
instead of your cellular connection then I don't think you'd save much 
battery life, but I'm not sure.

RE: Difficulty activating WiFi Calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello Chip,

The message that you are receiving, informing you that you don't have the right 
kind of account, is precisely why I am suggesting that a new SIM card is 
necessary.

I can only speak as to my experience with A T & T Wireless. 

Simply stated, not all SIMs are created equal.  A few years ago, maybe 5 or 6, 
now that I think about it, I ran into some kind of an activation service 
problem.  After countless attempts, I finally got in contact with a 5th level 
tech support guy who immediately discovered the solution , said solution being 
that a new SIM was required.  I honestly cannot remember the tech jargon but, 
effectively, it came down to the serial number or something on the SIM that was 
flagged in some way that the A T & T network rejected as being not quite right 
or too old, or something.  

Anyway, recently, while on a lunch date, a friend of mine had a problem 
activating her WiFi calling feature.  We simply walked over to the A T & T 
Wireless corporate store and I asked them to swich out her SIM.  The tech 
didn't even ask why.  He just did it and, of course, I was able to activate her 
WiFI calling service, on the spot.

That's about all I can say on it as to the why.

 Of course I cannot guarantee that switching out the SIM will work for you but, 
doing so won't cost you any money and it's can't hurt anything, right?  (smile) 
 This is to say, you have nothing to lose but definitely something to gain.

Good Luck,

Mark

Fyi, I get a web page which tells me that due to my type of account, I cannot 
use wifi calling; but phone support says there is no account type limitation.


Thanks.

Hello Esther,

It may be that you need a new SIM card for your phone.  Were I you, I would go 
to my local A T & T Wireless corporate store and ask them to switch out the 
SIM.  This should resolve your problem.

Hi, All!

I've been grappling back and forth with AT trying to set up WiFi calling and 
they can't seem to get the code needed for doing this.  When I activate WiFi 
calling, and enable it, I get a message saying that they can't set it up until 
I call a particular 800 number which I've done.  The technician I'm dealing 
with told me that VoiceOver might be the problem, but I don't think it is, 
because many of you have set up this feature.  Any help will be truly greatly 
appreciated.  Thanks.

Re: Wifi calling

For me it shows as follows: When on cellular coverage I see “EE Network” EE is 
the carrier I’m on in the UK, when I am on WiFi and the iPhone switches to WiFi 
calls, the label at the top switches to “EE WiFi Network”.

Re: Wifi calling

Hi,

I don't think it shows in the status bar, but it's worth having on if you spend 
time in places with good Wi-Fi and bad cellular connections. The phone switches 
to Wi-Fi when the cellular connection is bad without your having to do anything.

Best,
Anna

Wifi calling

[candyrlowe]

Hello everyone, 
I have a question about wiFi calling with verizon.  I activated it in settings. 
 I put in my location.  The phone setting says that it is on, but, supposedly 
it is supposed to show up in the status bar, and voice over doesn't announce 
anything about wiFi calling being on.  I showed it to my sighted husband, and 
he doesn't see anything in the status bar either.  
Is there really any advantage to using this?

RE: An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello Regina,

Question:
Will my phone switch to cellular when I am out of my home automatically?

Answer:
For all intent and purposes, yes.  Keep in mind that just because you enable 
the feature does not mean that the feature will be active at any given time.  
The feature is only active should your cell signal degrade to the extent that 
it cannot be used reliably.  

Question:
Is the quality better?

Answer:
That, as with many things in life, is a matter of opinion and available local 
technology.  This feature is not intended to provide enhanced call quality, per 
say, but to keep you connected in order to make and receive calls and text 
messages.

Question:
Is my number the same for both cellular and wifi?

Answer:
Yes.

Good Luck and Enjoy,

Mark

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?  

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.  

Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active compatible 
WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six

With AT only so far. This is a very disappointment, for a 5S users. I've been

Re: An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[Regina Alvarado]

I am with sprint, but I can take advantage of the wifi calling. A couple of 
questions. Will my phone switch to cellular when I am out of my home 
automatically? Is the quality better? Is my number the same for both cellular 
and wifi? I started to go through the steps to do it, but I wimped out because 
I have unlimited talk and did not figure out the answers to the foregoing 
questions anywhere.

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?  

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.  

Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active compatible 
WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six 
and 6+ in 6S And 6+ S any phone below that it would not allow it to happen. 
With AT only so far. This is a very disappointment, for a 5S users. I've been

Hi Ray,

 

Yes, the calls will use your cellular network if the signal is decent. Wi-fi 
calling is only designed for areas with no cel coverage, or if it’s weak.

I wonder if this applies to t-mobile customers as well. Just yesterday, I had a

RE: ATT wifi calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello Ray,

I suspect you are correct with regard  to the phone preferring the native LTE 
signal over WiFi calling..  

I, too, have WiFi calling enabled on my 6 Plus after having A T & T Voice Dial 
service disabled, and being switched over to the HD voicemail system.  On my 
account, voice over LTE was already enabled.  

Anyway, today, on purpose, I went to a local mall where I generally have low 
cell signal, around -110 or greater.  Definitely not an LTE location.  So, I 
connected to the mall’s free WiFi system, just for this test, and made and 
received a couple of phone calls, just fine, via WiFi.  The status screen 
indicated that I was using the WiFi calling feature as it listed something like 
A T & T plus the name of the WiFi system.  I was very impressed.

Mark

Some Information for A T & T Wireless Customers Who Recently Enabled WiFi Calling or Who Were Recently Switched to HD Voicemail

[M. Taylor]

Hello Everyone,

As the following is extremely important to my enjoyment of iPhone and in so
much as I think it an important tool for many of us, I am going to post this
to both the Mac Visionaries and V iPhone mailing lists.

Please note that I can only verify the following on the A T & T Wireless
network.

Generally speaking, the default time it takes for an incoming call to be
sent to voicemail is approximately 20 seconds or, from the caller's point of
view, 4 rings.  

For many years, it has been possible to increase the time it takes an
incoming call to be sent to voicemail to as much as 30 seconds.  You might
not think 10 seconds would make that much of a difference but, believe me,
it does.  

Needless to say, I had my settings set to 30 seconds.  Although A T & T
Wireless customer service representatives would change this account setting,
upon request, it was actually possible, through a series of service dial
commands, to adjust the setting directly from iPhone.

Those of you who, like me, were using the increased value setting, noticed
that upon having your account provisioned for HD voicemail, a requirement in
order to take advantage of WiFi calling, lost the benefit of the increased
value.  That is to say, incoming calls, once again, were going to voicemail
after 20 seconds, instead of 30.  You may have also noticed that the service
dial commands, once used to manually adjust this setting, is no longer
valid.

Well, as it turns out, the delay value previously set, only applies to the
legacy voicemail system and not to the new HD voicemail system.

The good news is that you can call A T & T Wireless, 800-331-0500, and have
the customer service representatives adjust the incoming call setting but
you must be certain to tell the rep, as many of them are not yet aware, to
make the adjustment to the HD voicemail system and not the legacy system,
the system that first appears when an account is displayed.

Even better, the new system allows for even longer delay times than did the
legacy system.  I currently have my delay time set to 40 seconds.  It is
absolutely marvelous.  

Some of you may be wondering why one would want to have such a high delay
time.  The answer is that it gives one, more time to reach the phone, should
she/he be in a different room than the phone or time to dry his/her hands
before touching the phone, etc.  

One final thing, many representatives may not know that the new system delay
time can be adjusted; so if they do not know how to adjust the time,
graciously insist that it can be done and request that your call be
escalated to the next level of technical support.  

I am happy to say that a couple of acquaintances, with whom I first shared
this information, have, like me, taken advantage of this new feature set
and, also like me, are happier than clams in clam sauce (smile).

Good Luck and Enjoy,

Mark

RE: ATT wifi calling

the thing defaults to LTE if there's a decent LTE signal

Re: ATT wifi calling

[Daniel Miller]

Hi Ray,

Yes, the calls will use your cellular network if the signal is decent. Wi-fi 
calling is only designed for areas with no cel coverage, or if it’s weak.

Re: Some Information for A T & T Wireless Customers Who Recently Enabled WiFi Calling or Who Were Recently Switched to HD Voicemail

[englishrider91]

Hey, cool! By HD voicemail, do you mean visual voicemail? If so, I already have 
that set. I'll have to call about getting the delay extended. This would be 
really great for me, as I often have the problem of not being able to reach the 
phone on time.


Thanks,

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?  

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.  

Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active compatible 
WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

Mark

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six

With AT only so far. This is a very disappointment, for a 5S users. I've been

RE: Some Information for A T & T Wireless Customers Who Recently Enabled WiFi Calling or Who Were Recently Switched to HD Voicemail

[M. Taylor]

Hello Pete,

In the past, A T & T Wireless and T-Mobile mirrored each other in many feature 
sets.  It certainly cannot hurt to give T Mobile a quick call, eh?

Should you decide to contact them, please let us know what happens.

Good Luck,

Mark

I wonder if this applies to t-mobile customers as well. Just yesterday, I had a 
call ring only twice, and then go to voicemail. That's something I hadn't had 
happen in the past.

ATT wifi calling

['Ray T. Mahorney' via VIPhone]

I now have it up on the 6plus but in addition to disabling voice dial, I had to 
have both VOLTE and
HD voice enabled on the account.  The phone also had to be provisioned to 
reflect the changes as I
got the phone back in march.  Question, how can I tell if the call is going 
over the wifi or the
cellular?

That's the advantage of upgrading your phone.  I'm debating with myself to 
either upgrading my 5s to a 6s or just waiting until next year for the iPhone 
7.  What would you all do?

RE: An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello Ray,

If you simply took the A T & T SIM card from an iPhone 5 series device and 
placed it into your 6 Plus, it is very likely that A T & T Wireless is still 
showing the 5 series phone on your account; the 5 series is not permitted to 
use WiFi calling, at this time.  So, call A T & T Wireless, 800-331-0500, to 
make certain that the 6 Plus is now associated with your account.  Finally, if 
you call A T & T Wireless and your account is reflecting the 6 Plus, and you 
still cannot activate WiFi calling, then you will need to visit your local A T 
& T Wireless store and swap out the old SIM for a newer one as the older SIM 
cards do not play nicely with WiFi calling.

Please let us know what happens, okay?  

Mark

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?  

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.  

Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active compatible 
WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six 
and 6+ in 6S And 6+ S any phone below that it would not allow it to happen. 
With AT only so far. This is a very disappointment, for a 5S users. I've been

RE: ATT wifi calling

['Ray T. Mahorney' via VIPhone]

closing the loop on my own wifi adventures, Someone may have mentioned this and 
I may have missed it but in order to see the ATT wifi network indicater I had 
to turn off LTE.  Someone may correct me but I suspect that because I have good 
LTE signal it defaulted to LTE rather than wifi.

Go to settings, phone, and in there, we'll be Wi-Fi calling, going they're 
interning on. It will ask you to putting your ZIP Code, once you've turned it 
on. Then you will wait a few seconds Wall it gathers all the information.

Not sure if this has been mentioned .. but if you are making use of the

Hello Ray,

If you simply took the A T & T SIM card from an iPhone 5 series device and 
placed it into your 6 Plus, it is very likely that A T & T Wireless is still 
showing the 5 series phone on your account; the 5 series is not permitted to 
use WiFi calling, at this time.  So, call A T & T Wireless, 800-331-0500, to 
make certain that the 6 Plus is now associated with your account.  Finally, 
if you call A T & T Wireless and your account is reflecting the 6 Plus, and 
you still cannot activate WiFi calling, then you will need to visit your 
local A T & T Wireless store and swap out the old SIM for a newer one as the 
older SIM cards do not play nicely with WiFi calling.


Please let us know what happens, okay?

Mark

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.


Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active 
compatible WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six

With AT only so far. This is a very disappointment, for a 5S users. I've been

Not sure if this has been mentioned .. but if you are making use of the 
"Voice Dial" feature that AT provided to the VI community a few years ago 
at no charge .. that will need to be discontinued.  It is not compatible 
with WiFi calling.  Spent several days getting things fixed on my 
account

interesting I did not pull the card from the 5 the 6 plus which I got had a 
card.  I did a bit more poking around and the phone said wifi could not be 
turned on and that the account holder has to contact ATT so that's the next 
item up for bid this morning.

Hello Ray,

If you simply took the A T & T SIM card from an iPhone 5 series device and 
placed it into your 6 Plus, it is very likely that A T & T Wireless is still 
showing the 5 series phone on your account; the 5 series is not permitted to 
use WiFi calling, at this time.  So, call A T & T Wireless, 800-331-0500, to 
make certain that the 6 Plus is now associated with your account.  Finally, 
if you call A T & T Wireless and your account is reflecting the 6 Plus, and 
you still cannot activate WiFi calling, then you will need to visit your 
local A T & T Wireless store and swap out the old SIM for a newer one as the 
older SIM cards do not play nicely with WiFi calling.


Please let us know what happens, okay?

Mark

Regarding WiFi Calling

Hello My Fellow A T & T Wireless Unlimited Data Plan Subscribers,

I am delighted to report that, after paying a visit to my local A T & T 
Wireless corporate store and after having concluded a 20 minute phone call with 
A T & T Wireless technical billing support, I am comfortable stating that there 
is absolutely no risk of voiding the unlimited data plan by enabling WiFi 
calling.  

When it's all said and done, the senior tech explained that, unlike the hotspot 
service, WiFi calling does not require any line/account provisioning, 
whatsoever.  In fact, after having spoken to the people at A T & T, I now 
realize that WiFi calling has absolutely nothing to do with the transmission of 
data.  Wifi calling only refers to voice calls and SMS messages.  Be that as it 
may, and I was clear to state this to all of those with whom I spoke, albeit 
graciously, that I don't trust A T & T Wireless or any big company that 
continues to be fined by the FCC for unfair practices designed to  limit the 
company's commitment to its customers who purchased service in good faith.  

By the way, I learned that A T & T only throttles data to its unlimited data 
plan customers when they reach 23GB in a billing cycle and then only at 
peak/congested times of the day, on a per cell tower basis.  That is to say, 
that if a customer has reached the 23GB threshold and is having his/her data 
throttled on cell tower A, because of high traffic congestion, if the customer 
happens to move to cell tower B, and B is not congested, data wil not be 
throttled.  

The following is the text of an email I had A T & T Wireless email to me, 
regarding WiFi calling:

Do charges apply for Wi-Fi Calling?
If you use Wi-Fi Calling to make or receive domestic calls from the U.S., 
Puerto Rico, or U.S. Virgin Islands, there are no extra charges. Also, these 
calls don't count against your voice plan usage limits. For international long 
distance calls, international rates from your current rate plan or 
international package apply.

If you use Wi-Fi Calling to send or receive domestic or international messages, 
you'll be charged based on your current rate plan or international package. 
These messages will also count against any usage limits.

Happy WiFi Calling To Us All,

Mark

RE: An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?  

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.  

Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active compatible 
WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

Mark

No, it is available in all areas and it is only subject right now to the six

Hello Ray,

On  which iPHone model did you attempt to activate WiFi calling?  

Also, generally speaking of course, in which area of the USA do you reside?

I ask because, on the A T & T Wireless platform, you may only activate WiFi 
calling on the iPhone 6 series or higher.  Also, LTE cell service must be 
available in your area.  

Finally, you must have access to both the LTE signal and an active compatible 
WiFi connection in order to enable the feature.

An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello My Fellow A T & T Wireless Unlimited Data Plan Subscribers,

I am delighted to report that, after paying a visit to my local A T & T
Wireless corporate store and after having concluded a 20 minute phone call
with A T & T Wireless technical billing support, I am comfortable stating
that there is absolutely no risk of voiding the unlimited data plan by
enabling WiFi calling.  

When it's all said and done, the senior tech explained that, unlike the
hotspot service, WiFi calling does not require any line/account
provisioning, whatsoever.  In fact, after having spoken to the people at A T
& T, I now realize that WiFi calling has absolutely nothing to do with the
transmission of data.  Wifi calling only refers to voice calls and SMS
messages.  Be that as it may, and I was clear to state this to all of those
with whom I spoke, albeit graciously, that I don't trust A T & T Wireless or
any big company that continues to be fined by the FCC for unfair practices
designed to  limit the company's commitment to its customers who purchased
service in good faith.  

By the way, I learned that A T & T only throttles data to its unlimited data
plan customers when they reach 23GB in a billing cycle and then only at
peak/congested times of the day, on a per cell tower basis.  That is to say,
that if a customer has reached the 23GB threshold and is having his/her data
throttled on cell tower A, because of high traffic congestion, if the
customer happens to move to cell tower B, and B is not congested, data wil
not be throttled.  

The following is the text of an email I had A T & T Wireless email to me,
regarding WiFi calling:

Do charges apply for Wi-Fi Calling?
If you use Wi-Fi Calling to make or receive domestic calls from the U.S.,
Puerto Rico, or U.S. Virgin Islands, there are no extra charges. Also, these
calls don't count against your voice plan usage limits. For international
long distance calls, international rates from your current rate plan or
international package apply.

If you use Wi-Fi Calling to send or receive domestic or international
messages, you'll be charged based on your current rate plan or international
package. These messages will also count against any usage limits.

Happy WiFi Calling To Us All,

Mark

A Question to A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[M. Taylor]

Hello,

Before I enable the new WiFi calling feature in iOS 9.1, I want to make
certain that doing so will not automatically kick me off of my unlimited
data plan.  For years, A T & T Wireless has been trying to do anything that
will cause one to lose their grandfathered unlimited data; I don't want them
to trick me as they have done so many others, in the past, by offering other
options, which coincidentally, (wink), cause the revocation of the unlimited
data plan.  

A little paranoia on my part?  You bet!!

All replies welcomed.

Thank you,

Mark 
PS
Yes, I know I could call them but, to be honest, I have received inaccurate
information from their call centers, especially when it comes to the
unlimited data plan, in the past.

Wifi calling

[Mary Otten]

My new iPhone has the capability of doing Wi-Fi calling. It was not on by 
default. When I turned it on, it seemed to allow me to also have my iPad mini 
two, which is not a cell model, do this Wi-Fi calling. So I googled around and 
wasn't really able to find out very much information. I understand the purpose 
of Wi-Fi calling is to let you make phone calls when your cell network is weak. 
However, if you have it enabled, and are in an area with a strong cell signal, 
will you use your cellular network? Or will you use your Wi-Fi network? This 
is, of course, assuming the Wi-Fi network is also strong. And how would a Wi-Fi 
enabled iPad with no cellular capability do wi-Fi calling? Or, if you do have 
Wi-Fi calling enabled, and are out in the city and have no Wi-Fi available, 
will you still be able to use your cell network without turning this feature 
off? I am just not clear about whether it is a good idea to have it turned on 
all the time, or just turn it on when you need it.
Mary

Re: Wifi calling

[Daniel Miller]

Hi Mary,

If you have t-mobile or sprint, you can use what’s called enhanced wi-fi 
calling, which allows other iPads, iPods or Macs to make and receive wifi 
calls, the same way your phone does. However, the really awesome advantage to 
this is you can leave your phone at home, or somewhere else entirely, or even 
turned completely off, and your other devices you have set up will ring as if 
you had normal continuity set up. Do a google search for making a call with 
wi-fi calling, and a result from apple support should pop up. That page will 
give you all the information you need.

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature

I think it uses wifi, as most of my usage has shifted from cellular minutes 
to wifi minutes. I have some cell coverage, just that it can be quite 
directional inside.

That's not what I heard from the person at Verizon I talked with yesterday. 
It was his contention that if you had a wireless signal, you would be using 
wireless and not cellular. But who knows, Verizon does not even have this up 
and running yet,. I also wonder if both parties have to be using wireless 
before it works? Questions, and very few answers.

It's probably about the same as it would be with good signal. Phone calls
pretty much are what they are unless you had another Sprint person
using it,
and then it might go HD. I discovered they made the error messages sound
really good if you dial the wrong thing, but that's about the only higher
quality thing I heard.

I can't seem to find this feature on my A T  T Wireless phone.

Does anyone know if A T  T or any other major wireless provider in
the US
is offering this ability other than Sprint?

It's funny, the only place my two friends couldn't get good cell
quality was
when they were at home.  Now they are deliriously happy with both me
and
their iPhones 6 Pluses (smile).

I have tried the WiFi Calling Feature available with Sprint, but have 
noticed no difference in the quality of phone calls made from inside my

It's probably about the same as it would be with good signal. Phone calls
pretty much are what they are unless you had another Sprint person using it,
and then it might go HD. I discovered they made the error messages sound
really good if you dial the wrong thing, but that's about the only higher
quality thing I heard.

RE: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature

That's not what I heard from the person at Verizon I talked with yesterday. It 
was his contention that if you had a wireless signal, you would be using 
wireless and not cellular. But who knows, Verizon does not even have this up 
and running yet,. I also wonder if both parties have to be using wireless 
before it works? Questions, and very few answers.

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature

Hi,

I believe each carriers implementation of it varies.
ATT, for example, it states that you’ll be using wi-fi if your cellular 
coverage is nonexistent or poor.

 pretty much are what they are unless you had another Sprint person
 using it,
 and then it might go HD. I discovered they made the error messages sound
 really good if you dial the wrong thing, but that's about the only higher
 quality thing I heard.

The Sprint version works pretty good most of the time. I'm in one of those

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature

here in the UK from my Cell provider for about two months, as far as I 
know, I haven't used it yet, but it seems to me, it can't be anything 
but a good thing.

I can't seem to find this feature on my A T  T Wireless phone.

It's available on my 6+ here in the UK, so I suspect it's probably 
already available on 6's and 6+'s already. Although having said that it

Mark, I don't know the answer but I do know that not all companies are 
supporting this yet. I would assume that if it doesn't show up, it is likely 
not there, but calling the provider would be a way to find out.

It does. It will probably come down in one of those carrier updates you get
when you hit settings and about.

It's available on my 6+ here in the UK, so I suspect it's probably
already available on 6's and 6+'s already. Although having said that it
probably depends whether your cell provider makes it available.

A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature

[M. Taylor]

Hello All,

Earlier today, I enabled the WiFi calling option for two of my Sprint
Wireless friends who were experiencing poor cell signal quality in certain
locations from within their homes, such as the garage.  Now, they have
excellent call quality from anywhere on their property.  

I can't seem to find this feature on my A T  T Wireless phone.  

Does anyone know if A T  T or any other major wireless provider in the US
is offering this ability other than Sprint?  

It's funny, the only place my two friends couldn't get good cell quality was
when they were at home.  Now they are deliriously happy with both me and
their iPhones 6 Pluses (smile).

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature

[Brent Harding]

It's probably about the same as it would be with good signal. Phone calls 
pretty much are what they are unless you had another Sprint person using it, 
and then it might go HD. I discovered they made the error messages sound 
really good if you dial the wrong thing, but that's about the only higher 
quality thing I heard.

The Sprint version works pretty good most of the time. I'm in one of those 
buildings where the regular cell signal just isn't so good everywhere, but 
the wifi is much better. I'm glad Sprint and TMobile have enabled this. I 
think Verizon and ATT are working on it yet. I think the minutes are 
unlimited, but I don't think Sprint offers anything but unlimited on calls 
these days.
