When will extend to Android Phone?

Regarding to the answer for Q2 'Local call rates for WiFi Calling from calls abroad'. What I can understand is  like U Mobile, when you calling Malaysia number via Wifi Calling while you oversea. If will charge the local rate instead of IDD.

But, what I get the answer from Live Chat is;

From the answer given, is it  ' benefits'?

On latest carrier 28.3 and enabled wifi calling but doesnt seems to be working. Normal Digi wording on the signal bar

Quite convenience option, since my home wall is too thick. I am staying in underground of my house. Since my house is 2 1/2 storey house. I am inside the lowest floor. The signal is no service here but the wifi in my home is strong. My home is using Unifi. After I found this option, Digi was offered Wi-Fi Calling, now I can call/receive calls & sms by Wifi. So I can now do online shopping, then request TAC for online banking at anywhere inside my house without take out my phone then go outside to find signal again.

hi

I am on Prepaid.  Active line.  Following the instruction as stated above, on iPhone 6.  Still not showing DIGI WIFI CALLING.

Is the service still working?

[#8]

I have solved the problem.

Throught CHAT function on Digi app, CS has activated VOLTE.  After restart, DIGI WIGI Calling is working now.

Thanks, Raj (DIGI CS)
