You only need to join WiFi to make calls. The call version of "Fetion" may make a comeback

Although the domestic communication and social environment is already very mature, in some special scenarios, such as arrears of phone bills and poor signal, it is definitely frustrating to be unable to make an emergency call. However, VoWiFi, or WiFi calling, is likely to make a comeback and become mainstream.

It is reported that Zhejiang Mobile recently launched the "WiFi Call Assistant" application, and its function is obvious, that is, as long as there is WiFi, the call function can be realized. Unlike some Internet phone applications, the WiFi Call Assistant launched by Mobile this time can not only dial but also answer calls, and the caller ID of the other party's mobile phone will also be the user's own phone number.

No monthly fee, which may be the core guarantee for its comeback

In fact, WiFi calling has been around for many years, and even operators have been involved in related businesses. Unfortunately, due to technical issues, the quality of VoWiFi calls is relatively poor. After rapid development, VoWiFi calling has obviously become more mature, and the way China Mobile has decided that there is no monthly fee and it is only counted into the minutes of personal voice packages is enough to make WiFi calling resurgence.

It is worth noting that unlike social apps such as WeChat calls, this WiFi Assistant does not require the other party to have network conditions. To give the simplest example, we can use WiFi calls to directly call landlines, achieving a more seamless communication scenario that is consistent with traditional voice calls.

In fact, well-known operators including AT&T and Verizon in the United States have already launched and popularized VoWiFi calling services, and even India has set off a wave of WiFi calling at the end of 2019. It is foreseeable that VoWiFi will soon become popular in the domestic communication environment, and I believe that this service will change our communication habits to a certain extent.
