Airtel and Jio Wi-Fi Calling Rolled Out to Multiple Nokia Smartphones

HMD Global today enabled VoWi-Fi feature on a plethora of Nokia smartphones in India. In December 2019, Airtel rolled out its Wi-Fi Calling service in select circles, which was followed by Reliance Jio in January 2020. Now, both Airtel and Reliance Jio are offering VoWi-Fi or Wi-Fi Calling service across all the 22 telecom circles, and it works on any broadband service provider. However, the list of supported handsets is very small. HMD Global today released the list of phones which support Airtel Wi-Fi Calling and Jio Wi-Fi Calling. Airtel Wi-Fi Calling is available on seven Nokia Android smartphones, whereas Jio Wi-Fi Calling can be used on nine Nokia devices starting today. The feature is already available and it seems like HMD Global rolled out a network update to these phones for enabling VoWi-Fi.
