Force WiFi calling

My reception is really awful in my home. I would like to make/receive all calls via WiFi. I have WiFi calling turned on, have tried the airplane mode trick but can't get it to work. I can't talk with a tech because I have barely any service and the call gets dropped. It's a endless loop. I only have a few days to decide if I want to cancel the service. Help?

  • I just messed with it and I think it works in airplane mode. But I can't use airplane mode because then I can't use my glucose sensor via Bluetooth.

      It's possible to be in airplane mode yet bluetooth stays active. If you enable airplane mode, check if you can enable bluetooth. I can on my android tablet.

    I have similar issues at my home with a poor cellular signal (typically one bar). My iPhone seems to be fairly good at switching to wifi calling when needed.

    I enabled airplane mode on my phone and had no issues making calls using wifi when I did this. You said you tried that. What happens when you do that?
