WiFi calling

[jimmynexus]

Hi all,

My 6 pro seems to have a problem where when coming back into an area with WiFi, the WiFi calling doesn't seem to turn on. I have to switch flight mode on and off to prompt it, or switch WiFi calling toggle on and off. I have it set to WiFi preferred instead of mobile data.

Does anyone have this problem? Or a way to resolve it,

I'm on Google Fi and have had no issues here so far.

Do you have "Turn on Wifi Automatically" turned on? See screen shot.

Always worked on P5 but P6P hasn't worked yet on VZ. Hoping Nov update corrects that.

Many thanks

I am seeing the same issue on Verizon. Hopefully the Nov update will fix it.

I have Google Fi and use wifi calling almost exclusively. I work from home and it works great. Certainly saves on data usage.

Fyi my understanding is when making phone calls while not connected to wifi does NOT use data so you aren't using data when using your phone to make/receive calls.

And to add to my statement above jf your using apps to make calls like Google duo, Skype, Google meet etc those do count towards your data I was referring to normal carrier voice calls.

I was referring to being able to be connected to my wifi all day long because I do work from home. I know calls don't use data.

Oh okay gotcha misunderstood my bad.

Not a problem. I didn't state it too clearly. I really do like how it will automatically switch between wifi calling and cell when I go out. I have one less thing to think about.
