VodaIdea rolls out VoWi-Fi calling

VodaIdea Ltd. which provides telecom services under the brand ‘Vi’, has launched VoWiFi services in two more circles Mumbai and Gujarat taking the total no. of license areas with the service to four.

The company has already launched the service in two circles, Goa & Kolkata in last year. The service can be used by both pre & post-paid subscribers across their four circles, according to VIL.

VoWiFi is hailed across the globe as the technology that keeps users connected without a mobile signal. Commonly referred as WiFi calling, VoWiFi eliminate mobile blackspots for users by making it possible to make and receive calls over WiFi or wireless internet calling.

The services do not require mobile networks or SIM cards to make the calls. Further the receiver need not have WiFi calling facilities. Calls can be accessed on LTE device. Another benefit is that users can seamlessly move from VoLTE to VoWiFi without getting disconnected.

Other operators are in the various phases of launching VoWiFi, in a move to compete with top players who are controlling the majority portion of the market. In 2018, the department of telecommunications have improved the connectivity, especially in rural areas.
