Using WiFi Calling with Parrot Mobile
A great backup plan for when you’re in an area with little to no cellular service is WiFi calling. If you are connected to a stable WiFi network, you can use it to send texts or make phone calls. It works just as it would if you were on the regular cellular network.
Why Use WiFi Calling?
Having an additional way to stay connected is always good news. During moments when you’re in a less-than-ideal location for cellular service—such as certain buildings, remote areas, or anywhere with a weak signal—WiFi calling can be a game changer. All you need is a stable WiFi connection, and your calls and messages will still go through.
WiFi Calling and Your Plan
Using WiFi calling and messaging still counts toward your plan’s minutes and messages. It simply uses the internet instead of the cellular network.
Helpful Tip
