What is VoWiFi?

VoWiFi or WiFi Calling is a service that allows customers to talk and text over an active WiFi connection. VoWiFi enables customers to talk and text from indoor locations without strong mobile signals. The technology will turn all WiFi signals worldwide to become a Digi mobile connection. This means that the Digi SIM is still needed to enable WiFi Calling.

What are the benefits of VoWiFi to Digi customers?

Digi VoWiFi will provide the following benefits to Digi customers:

  •   Make calls and send texts from anywhere.
  •   Seamless experience – no app is required and a seamless handover.
How do I enable the Digi VoWiFi service?

Please make sure you have an active VoLTE subscription, and a smartphone with the latest software and WiFi Calling feature. Now, go to your phone's settings to turn on the WiFi Calling option.

What type of WiFi supports VoWiFi?

You can make WiFi Calls via any of these WiFi providers:

  •   Home/Office WiFi supported by Unifi, Streamyx, Timedotcom, etc.
  •   Public WiFi found at Airports, McDonald's, Starbucks, Smart Selangor, etc.
