How to enable the Wi-Fi calling function on a Galaxy phone

When you turn on Wi-Fi Calling, you can make calls over your phone's Wi-Fi network connection. For this feature to work, your phone must be connected to a Wi-Fi network and have an active SIM card inserted.

Step 1. Open the Phone app, and then tap on the More options (the three vertical dots) icon.

Step 2. Select the Settings menu.

Step 3. Find and tap the switch to turn the Wi-Fi Calling feature on.

Alternately, you can also enable Wi-Fi Calling from the Quick settings panel. Swipe down from the top of the screen, and then tap the Wi-Fi Calling icon to turn it on.

There are few things that you can check on your phone if the Wi-Fi Calling feature isn't available.

First, make sure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network. If the network signal is weak or unstable, the Wi-Fi Calling feature may not work. Open the Quick Panel and check the Wi-Fi icon to make sure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network.

In addition, to use Wi-Fi Calling, you need to insert an active SIM card from a carrier that supports this feature. Check with your carrier if your SIM card is supported. If that doesn't resolve the issue or if access to the feature isn't allowed, please contact your carrier for further assistance.
