Understanding Wi-Fi Calling

Myth: Wi-Fi calling is complicated and unreliable.
Truth: Wi-Fi calling is simple and reliable, perfect for rural WA towns or remote beaches where cellular signals struggle. This feature uses Wi-Fi instead of traditional cell signals, ensuring clearer, uninterrupted calls—even if you're tucked away in the Margaret River wineries or camping near Esperance. Enabling it is straightforward: just activate Wi-Fi calling in your phone’s settings. Bonus tip: Wi-Fi calling can save significantly on roaming charges if you're travelling internationally, providing clear, cost-effective communication wherever Wi-Fi is available.
Historical Fact: Telstra, Australia’s largest telecom, introduced Wi-Fi calling nationally in 2016 to enhance rural and regional connectivity.
