Anil - Jan 09, 2020

Once you’ve turned on the 'Jio Wi-Fi Calling', Wi-Fi and cellular network will automatically switch between each other to make the call, depending on their connectivity at that time.

In the coming days, Reliance Jio will launch the Jio Wi-Fi Calling service all around the country, which will let all users access voice calls over Wi-Fi. As claimed by Reliance Jio, the service is now available for more than 150 smartphone models.

With the arrival of the Jio Wi-Fi Calling service, Indian users will have the ability to make both voice calls and video calls via Wi-Fi networks. In comparison with Airtel’s similar service, VoWiFi allows users to take advantage of every Wi-Fi network, instead of using only the XStream Fiber broadband of Airtel.

How To Enable Jio Wi-Fi Calling?

As we said above, Jio customers need to have a compatible device before making any Wi-Fi call via this service. For those who are not really aware of how to get started with it, here’re a step-by-step instruction for you:

Step 1: Go to the “Settings” menu on your smartphone.
Step 2: Navigate to “Connections” settings.
Step 3: Find the Wi-Fi calling, and then all you need to do is to turn it on.
Step 4: If successful, you can make calls normally and easily as you often do, but via a Wi-Fi connection, rather than a cellular network.

Making calls via Wi-Fi won’t charge you any additional fees because those calls are considered regular voice calls and data consumed for a call will come from your Wi-Fi network. As per the company, every minute of the call will consume half MB.

Once you’ve turned it on, Wi-Fi and cellular network will automatically switch between each other to make the call, depending on their connectivity at the time. As a result, you should keep both Wi-Fi and VoLTE connection for a better experience when making a call.
