MegaFon has announced a ban on the federal VoWiFi network in Russia. That is, it works all over the country.
This technology allows you to receive calls and SMS over Wi-Fi. Especially relevant in cases where there is no connection, for example, in basements or in new residential complexes. Use the Enhanced Voice Service and WB-AMR codecs, which allow you to raise the voice of the interlocutor to a “crystal clear” level.
We continue to implement the most effective technological solutions for our subscribers. Last year we launched a federal VoLTE network, with the help of active users of calls with crystal clear sound over mobile Internet.
Our network is built in such a way that the smartphone automatically selects the best wireless connection depending on the location: it can be a familiar voice connection, a connection using the mobile Internet in VoLTE, or, if the subscriber is in a hard-to-reach place for a cellular signal, VoWiFi. This allows subscribers not to miss calls and always stay in touch.
— Alexey Titov, CTO of MegaFon
VoWiFi works on over 450 smartphone models. To use it, you must activate the action. Here’s how to do it on an iPhone:
one. Opening the menu Settings -> Cellular.
2. We select your MegaFon SIM card.
3. Open the Wi-Fi Calls section and activate the toggle switch.
Communication via VoWiFi is charged at the home rate. Works with all carriers.
