How can I use WiFi calling on my primary number?
Last updated: 2026-09-03
Quick answer
Wi-Fi Calling lets your home number make and receive ordinary calls over an internet connection instead of the mobile network. It is a feature of your home operator, so turn it on before you travel while you are still on their network.
How to enable it
- iPhone: Settings > Apps > Phone > Wi-Fi Calling, and turn it on for your home line.
- Android: look for Wi-Fi Calling under Settings > Connections or Settings > Network & internet, depending on your brand.
- If the option is missing, your operator or your plan does not support it.
Using it abroad
- Connect to Wi-Fi, or to your eSiMAZE data if your operator permits Wi-Fi Calling over a hotspot.
- Keep the home line switched on, since the call still uses that number.
- Expect calls to be billed as if you were at home, though this depends entirely on your operator's terms.
Important
Some operators restrict Wi-Fi Calling outside their home country, and some emergency-calling rules differ when using it abroad. Confirm with your operator before relying on it, because eSiMAZE cannot enable, configure, or troubleshoot this feature on your home line.
