WiFi calling is truly a revolutionary tech for those who live in an area of weak telecom signals. With the ability to place cellular calls over a wireless network, one could negate the necessity to rely upon the fluctuating indicators.

But yeah, not every handset has received the feature to enable WiFi calling toggle. For example, OnePlus smartphones still don’t have the official Jio VoWiFi support. Nonetheless, you can still activate the attribute through a simple workaround.
