The calls wifi They are a function that supposedly has been available for a long time in the Google Pixel, but some users claim that there is no trace of it in countries like Spain. This feature authorizes users to respond phone calls through the Internet and without depending on coverage, which can lead to a greater stability and quality during calls.
There are areas in which coverage does not come quite well, so using the home wifi network or a public area could be a solution to get out of the way. In principle, the Wi -Fi call option is executed From the APP Telephone settingsalthough personally I have not found this configuration and there are many users who do not find it either. Everything will change with one of the next updates of the Android system and Google itself will notify its arrival.
Wi -Fi calls for Google Pixel
The Android Authority medium has discovered an interesting fact within the adaptive connectivity services application. According to the information collected, very soon the users who have a Google Pixel will obtain a Notification that will notify them of the possibility to make calls via wifi.
The notification in question indicates to users that they can activate the calls wifi and continue talking or sending text messages via SMS regardless of whether the area has bad coverage. It is not entirely clear if the notice will appear automatically when entering areas where the signal is not good or directly will be notified of users to remember that they can enable such an option.
Anyway, it is a good way to inform all users that they have this option available within the settings and that they can easily activate it if they did not know. There are many people who do not investigate within the settings of the smartphone itself or the default applications that it brings, such as the Telephone app, where this option supposedly appears. It is a highly recommended practice to know in depth the possibilities of the device, although those who do not have the necessary knowledge and do not give very advanced use to the device never take advantage of this kind of characteristics.
Availability in Spain?
In my Google Pixel 8a, the function of activating the calls wifi does not appear and I have seen other cases of users with other models that do not have the option in sight. It is important to note that this does not expressly depend on the country or model, but rather It is the operator’s thingsince most do not usually offer this service in Spain.
Remember to check this aspect with your operator and consult which are those that have the possibility, among which are companies such as Movistar or Orange, among others. For Activate the wifi call option In a Google Pixel you have to meet the following steps:
- Open the phone app.
- Click on the 3 points of the upper right corner and access the settings.
