Vi users with an iPhone can now make calls through WiFi calling, check compatible devices

VoWiFi or Voice over WiFi, as the name suggests, enables users to make calls where there is low or negligible network. Vi started rolling out WiFi calling earlier this year. It has now extended the function to Apple handsets.

Vodafone Idea, now Vi, has extended its WiFi calling services to select Apple handsets. The telco rolled out the VoWiFi services earlier this year. VoWiFi or Voice over WiFi, as the name suggests, enables users to make calls where there is low or negligible network. However, users will require a WiFi connection for the calls to go through successfully. To enable the service all customers require is a 4G SIM and a compatible handset that supports VoWiFi calling. Earlier this year, Vi has started the re-farming process to make 4G available throughout India and is following up with VoWiFi services in 4G-equipped circles. As of now, WiFi calling is available in select circles including Maharashtra and Goa, Kolkata, Gujarat, Delhi, and Mumbai.
