Ncell has officially launched its Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) service on February 13, 2025, to provide its users with advanced telecom features, including HD voice calls over a WiFi connection at affordable rates. This service aims to enhance call quality, especially in areas with weak cellular signals such as basements or remote regions.
The VoWiFi service allows Ncell users to make and receive calls, send SMS, and enjoy clear audio through a reliable WiFi connection, ensuring that mobile network disruptions no longer affect communication. This service comes as a competitive move after Nepal Telecom’s recent introduction of VoWiFi.
Ncell VoWiFi Compatible Devices
The VoWiFi service is compatible with iPhone 8 and later models. Ncell also plans to expand compatibility to Samsung, Xiaomi, OPPO, Vivo, and other phone brands in the near future.
VoWiFi Technology
Similar to Ncell’s VoLTE, the VoWiFi service operates through a strong WiFi connection. The technology automatically switches to WiFi when the cellular signal is weak, providing a seamless communication experience even in low-coverage areas.
Tariff
Ncell offers VoWiFi as a regular service with no additional charges for voice calls or SMS sent over the WiFi connection. The company aims to provide users with high-quality telecom services without extra costs. VoWiFi works in tandem with Ncell’s 4G network, which now covers 94% of Nepal’s population.
How to Use Ncell VoWiFi
To activate VoWiFi on your phone, users must enable both VoLTE and VoWiFi features in the settings. Once activated, the service status will be displayed on the phone’s status bar as “VoWiFi” or “WiFi Calling.”
Conclusion
Ncell’s VoWiFi service is a significant step forward for users, allowing HD voice calls over WiFi and reducing reliance on mobile network signals. Although the service is currently limited to certain smartphones, Ncell plans to expand device compatibility, ensuring more users can benefit from this innovative service.
