What Is Wi-Fi Calling on Android?
A smartphone’s Wi-Fi calling feature lets you make and receive calls over Wi-Fi instead of a cell tower.
All you need is a strong Wi-Fi connection.
How Wi-Fi calling works is carrier-specific.
Some might charge extra and others might not allow it all.
Or maybe you get connected but the call drops due to spotty service.
Wi-Fi calling is useful because your calls are routed over the internet.
