In this tutorial, we will show you how to enable VoWiFi (WiFi Calling) on Google Pixel 3, 3 XL, 3A, and 3A XL devices. Google was about to release the Android 11 beta in the delayed date of June 3 (delayed to ongoing pandemic). However, owing to the recent unrest in the US, the beta update got delayed even further. On the bright side, the security patches are getting delivered as usual, and fortunately, there’s no delay in that.

Recently a handful of Google Pixel devices received the latest security patch update for June 2020. The changelog had the usual security improvements and system stability. Apart from that, there was a slew of other changes and improvements too. These were related to Audio, GPS, Media, Power, System UI, Telephony, and WiFi.
But apart from that, there was a surprise package. As it wasn’t mentioned in the changelog, users were surprised to notice the VoWiFi feature on their Pixel 3, 3 XL, 3A and 3A XL devices. Since it doesn’t seem to be the case only with early access or beta testers, but rather a wider rollout, we guess everyone of our readers might have received this update as well. In this regard, here’s everything that you need to know and the steps to enable it onto your device.
The VoWiFi Feature
For the unawares, enabling the Voice over WiFi or VoWiFi feature routes the call through your wireless internet rather than through your sim carrier. This feature comes in handy in regions where there is a drop in networks or weak signals. So if you are having a decent WiFi, call drops and interrupted calls will be a thing of the past. This is why many users were eagerly waiting for this feature to arrive on their devices. And it seems the wait is now over.
