Enabling iD Mobile Wi-Fi Calling on Android
Not all iD Mobile plans include Wi-Fi Calling. Log into the iD Mobile app and check your plan features. Contact 7777 (from iD Mobile) to enable it if it is not included.
Wi-Fi Calling requires device support. On Android: go to Settings → Network & Internet → Mobile Network → Wi-Fi Calling and check if the option appears. If missing entirely, your device may not support this feature with iD Mobile.
Go to Settings → Network & Internet → Mobile Network → Wi-Fi Calling and switch the Wi-Fi Calling toggle on. On some Android models, this option only appears when connected to Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi Calling settings may be hidden when not on Wi-Fi. Connect your Android to a Wi-Fi network, then navigate to Settings → Network & Internet → Mobile Network → Wi-Fi Calling to access the option.
On iPhone: Settings → General → About. If a carrier update prompt appears, tap Update. Carrier updates often add Wi-Fi Calling support for iD Mobile.
After enabling Wi-Fi Calling, restart your Android. Allow 2 minutes for iD Mobile to register the feature. You should see 'Wi-Fi' or 'VoWiFi' next to the signal indicator.
If the Wi-Fi Calling toggle is greyed out and your device supports it, call 7777 (from iD Mobile). iD Mobile may need to enable Wi-Fi Calling on your specific SIM or account.
