Who's using WiFi calling?

[robertk328]

Now that WiFi calling is enabled in the latest betas, who is using it?

I'm glad to finally have it as the coverage in my home is poor. I've used it a bunch of times and have not had any issues!

Been fine for me too.

Wait.... so with 9.3 we'll have Wifi calling?!

For Verizon, yes.

I edited the photo to show how it displays on the screen.
You can get it now, just join the public beta and download it

Hmmm, I might need to. I'd done that before on a previous 6 Plus and it worked well!

Current beta is solid. Public beta 5. Beta 4 broke notifications on Apple Watch (for many) but 5 has been good.

The full release should be out be out soon I'd wager!

Probably, but if he needs it now it's OK to hop on the beta.

Works great on PB5 with Verizon.

It's made it usable in my house!

I still don't see a way to enable wifi calling with Verizon.

Is this only available on iPhone 6 and newer devices?

If I remember correctly I think you have to be on the 9.3 beta.

Not sure what the device requirements are but there hasn't been much said about it yet. I'm sure we'll know more once 9.3 GM is released.

So we're waiting on Apple, and not Verizon! Apple needs to get their behind in gear and release 9.3 for all! Don't they know I'm tired of waiting?

Join the public beta. It's rock solid and @robertk328 isn't reporting that it murdered his battery life.
My guess is that we'll see a GM in the next few weeks. My instinct says it will be right around the March 21st event.

 

[robertk328]

That's what I was thinking too (March 21). It hasn't been ready for release but I would think they can iron it out by then to coincide with the new phone we are anticipating.

Soooo no reaction to my battery life comment. I'm disappointed.
