How To Ensure That Freedom Mobile Nationwide Access Works On Your iPhone… Along With Setting Up WiFi Calling On Your iPhone
After I posted this story, I got an email from a reader who wanted some help in terms of making sure that his iPhone would get access to Freedom Mobile’s nationwide access. In short when he was in a Freedom Mobile coverage area, everything worked fine. But the second he left a Freedom Mobile coverage area, he’d get no service. Upon learning that he had an iPhone 13, I knew what the issue was. What he needed to do is do the following on his iPhone:
Go to Settings
Go to Cellular
Click on Cellular Data Options
You’ll see this screen:
The important part here is to turn on Data Roaming. That way, if you step outside a Freedom Mobile coverage area, you’ll roam onto their nationwide network without an issue. Now if you are on Team Android, I have you covered:
Go to Settings
Select Network & Internet
Select Mobile Network
Make sure that Roaming is turned on
Another reader emailed in asking how to set up WiFi calling on her iPhone. Here’s how to do it:
Go to Settings
Go to Cellular
Click on Wi-Fi Calling
To turn it on, you have to turn on the setting “Wi-Fi Calling on This iPhone”
Once you do that, you’ll be taken to a screen where you’ll be asked to enter your home address. Do so and agree to the terms and conditions. If you’ve done everything correctly, you should see this:
If your WiFi calling screen looks like this, then you’ve done things correctly. And for those on Team Android, try these instructions:
Open the Phone app
Tap the three-dot icon on the right
Tap Settings
Tap Calls if you have a Google phone or if you run stock Android. Skip this step if you don’t.
Tap Wi-Fi calling.
