I don't understand why this has been available on Telus for the s8 for ages but still not on Koodo. How difficult could it possibly be to roll out on Koodo if they've done all the work for it on Telus?

Not difficult at all, but it's not what the marketing people want. They want you on the "premium" network with premium plans and premium prices.

At my previous company, there was one corner on each floor that was an absolute dead spot for cell reception. Luckily the wifi signal was extremely strong, so anyone who had wifi calling could continue their voice service uninterrupted. That is the big advantage I see to having wifi calling.

A side benefit of having wifi calling is not having to worry about roaming charges while abroad. You'll get free voice and SMS service anywhere a wifi hotspot exists.

Telus/Koodo wifi calling doesn't work outside Canada unlike Fido, Freedom and Rogers. Only way to get around it is VPN and use Canadian servers

Can anyone let me know if their wifi calling is working on iPhones on 12.2? My wifi calling hasn't turned on at all since I updated to 12.2...
