I am currently outside of my country.

wifi calling When I try to use wifi calling when on airplane mode, I get a message telling me to connect to a wifi network or disable airplane mode. I was in this community a couple of days ago and they said to contact my mobile provider. They did so many checks. When I am on wifi and on airplane mode, I am able to stream and do everything else on the web. But, I cannot text or make calls when on wifi. My wifi calling switch is on and I have reset the network. I have reset my modem. I have roaming enabled. Is it possible that my phone is broken? My phone simply does not think it is connected to wifi when texting or making a call. Thank you for your help.

WiFi-calling is not available with a dual-SIM phone while roaming I have a European e-SIM in my iPhone 13 Pro Max as the primary SIM-card. While travelling I always buy a local physical SIM-card to avoid the expensive roaming charges. Both the SIM-cards work well expect for the WiFi-calling. Whenever I connect to any WiFi network, I am not able to make the phone use the WiFi-call in my primary e-SIM card. The primary e-SIM always disconnects from the WiFi-call feature within seconds after connecting to any WiFi network. I can see the WiFi text briefly appear after the name of my primary e-SIM name in the top left of the display. The only way to make or receive WiFi calls abroad via my primary e-SIM card in a WiFi network is to put the phone in airplane mode. I would really appreciate to know whether there is any other solution to make the WiFi calls work abroad via the primary e-SIM card in a dual-SIM setup?

If you have an unlimited subscription, you can log in to your carrier's website.

Then it is stated how much you have consumed in that period.

If you have a postpaid or prepaid card, you can view it on your phone.

The data consumed are controlled by your carrier, so ask them, they can give the best answer.
