WIFI Calling
Hi All, On my Son's Samsung, there is a function which may be an app that runs in the background that can be used if you are deep inside of a building and can not get any cell bars. This app is called WIFI Calling. What I think it does is connect to one of the carrier's servers so that the phone can make and receive cell calls as though it had a good connection. I was wondering if anyone had seen anything like this for the ios operating system that would work on at&T.

Wifi calling
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.

Wifi calling
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?

I have a fairly poor cell signal in my home and too often have calls dropped. I have Verizon and outside my little neighborhood the coverage is excellent. I would like some opinions about using WiFi calling to improve this. I admit that I know little about the feature so any help will be appreciated.

wifi calling
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
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. > On Oct 23, 2015, at 9:34 PM, Mary Otten wrote: > > My new iPhone has the capability of doing Wi-Fi calling. It was not on by > default.

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.

Re: WiFi calling
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!

RE: ATT wifi calling
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.

Difficulty activating WiFi Calling
Hi, All! I've been grappling back and forth with AT&T 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.

WiFi Calling Dilemma Solved!
Hi, Everyone! Sorry this message is a bit late, but my problem with activating WiFi calling with AT&T has been solved. The lady that was helping me didn't really state how she solved the problem, but she said she manipulated something and she was able to enter the code. Just for your information, WiFi calling kicks in when the cellular bars are 2 or less. I appreciate those of you who sent me suggestions and I'm glad I have it activated now. Thanks again.

RE: Difficulty activating WiFi Calling
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.

Re: Does WIFI Calling Save Battery Life?
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: Does WIFI Calling Save Battery Life?

RE: Does WIFI Calling Save Battery Life?
Duo is meant to be a video calling app. Maybe they'll allow for voice calls only at some point, maybe they won't. There are of course plenty of options for 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.

You can go into Settings -> Cellular and turn off cellular data. You can also turn on airplane mode and then turn on wifi. My Apple devices don't support wifi calling.

A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature
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
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 AT&T 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. - Original Message - From: "Brett C."

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature
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.

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature
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. - Original Message - From: "Terry-Ann Saurmann" To: Sent: Friday, August 14, 2015 6:35 PM Subject: Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature Unfortunately, I don't notice any difference in the quality of a call indoors yet via Sprint .

Re: A Question Regarding The WiFi Calling Feature
This is a great feature. I use t-mobile, for some reason, in my apartment, I only get 1 of 5 bars, works great once you get ousdie, not sure what the deal is with that. At times I would miss calls, and call quality was not very good. However, with the wifi calling feature, it works great.

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.

I think it uses wifi, as most of my usage has shifted from cellular minutes to wifi minutes.

A Question to A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling
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. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, 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 -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

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&T only so far.

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

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

Not sure if this has been mentioned .. but if you are making use of the "Voice Dial" feature that AT&T provided to the VI community a few years ago at no charge .. that will need to be discontinued.

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. reggie & Lex On Oct 29, 2015, at 10:31 PM, M.

RE: An Update for A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling
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 On Oct 29, 2015, at 10:31 PM, M.

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

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.
