Wi-Fi Calling uses your data plan, not your minutes.

Yes, Wi-Fi calling is free on TracFone. To use it, you’ll need to have a phone that supports Wi-Fi calling and be connected to a Wi-Fi network.

Yes, you can use a TracFone with just WiFi. However, you will need to purchase a data plan in order to use the phone’s features.

Your TracFone minutes are deducted according to the plan that you have. For example, if you have a talk and text plan, your minutes will be deducted for talking and texting. If you have a data plan, your minutes will be deducted for using data.

To make a Wi-Fi call on your TracFone, you first need to connect to a Wi-Fi network. Once you are connected, open the Phone app and tap the Menu button. Tap “Settings” and then “Wi-Fi Calling.” Turn on “Wi-Fi Calling” and enter your phone number. Your phone will automatically connect to Wi-Fi when you are in a covered area.

WiFi calling is a feature that allows you to make phone calls over a WiFi network instead of using your cell phone’s network. Most phones that have WiFi calling enabled will have a special WiFi calling app, but you can also use the regular phone app to make calls over WiFi. To check if your phone has WiFi calling enabled, go to your phone’s settings and look for the WiFi Calling or Calling over WiFi option.

The Wi-Fi utility on your Tracfone is used to connect to a Wi-Fi network. To use the utility, you’ll need to know the name of the network and the password, if it has one.

Wi-Fi is not a necessity, but it can be very convenient. For example, if you have a lot of devices that need to be connected to the internet, Wi-Fi can be a faster and more reliable option than using an Ethernet cable.

There’s no need to leave Wi-Fi calling on all the time. If you’re in an area with a strong Wi-Fi signal, your phone will automatically switch to Wi-Fi calling.

No, only the phone that is making the call needs Wi-Fi. The other phone just needs to be on a network that can route calls to the Wi-Fi calling phone.
