Page 107: Wi-Fi Calling
Wi-Fi Calling Wi-Fi calling gives you the ability to make and receive phone calls and send and receive text messages over a wireless network. Because Wi-Fi Calling uses a wireless connection, your calls, texts, and data activity won't count against your limits on your Sprint plan. Wi-Fi Calling also enhances coverage in areas where a phone signal is weak. Warning: 9-1-1 Emergency Calling using Wi-Fi Calling Because Sprint Wi-Fi Calling is a Voice over IP service that sends calls over the Internet, it’s important to note that 9-1-1 works differently than a regular 9-1-1 call on the Sprint Network. When you make a 9-1-1 call with a Sprint Wi-Fi Calling-enabled phone, your phone will first attempt to complete your call like any other 9-1-1 call on the Sprint Network. If wireless coverage is not available, your phone will try to complete a 9-1-1 call over Wi-Fi. Because of this, it’s important to always make sure you have an accurate address registered to each Wi-Fi access point you use for Sprint Wi-Fi Calling. If you would like to order a reminder sticker for your phone that explains how the 9-1-1 process works with Sprint Wi-Fi Calling, please contact Care by dialing from your Sprint phone or 844-665-6327.
