We have contacted @Jazzpk, but they have yet to confirm the actual launch date of the feature.


Why do we need WiFi Calling? 

The WiFi Calling feature has many benefits, but most importantly, it allows you to make or receive calls even when you have poor or non-existent cellular network coverage. It can be beneficial if you live or work in an area with poor outdoor or indoor cellular service.


Another good thing about WiFi calling is that you don't need to do anything besides enabling the feature. All your calls and texts function as they would if you use the cellular network. And since the feature is baked right into the phone's dialer, no additional downloads are necessary, and all your contacts are available whether or not they are using WiFi calling.


More than that, Calls made over WiFi Calling will use your plan's minutes where applicable, even when you're overseas. You will be charged the pay-per-use domestic calling rate if you do not have any bundled voice minutes. International calls will follow the standard IDD rates.


We have tested the WiFi Calling feature while using the @Jazzpk network in Okara District; take a look at the screenshot below:



The screenshot confirmed that WiFi Calling is provisioned for Samsung Galaxy A715 Model. We will verify its availability while travelling abroad. Stay tuned for an update.
