Is XZ1 Compact capable of Wi-Fi calling.

Yes it is, but you would need to speak with your service provider to see if they support it on this phone.

Your service provider may also have restrictions depending on what type of contract you have with them and they may need to provision it OTA.

No problem. I'm not sure about 3, but It works with Vodafone UK on my phone although it was restricted to phones with their firmware, but I believe that they do not restrict anymore.

Some other providers also restrict it to phones with their firmware only.

I was in a similar position with Three when they stopped the InTouch app. My research suggested that Threes wifi calling wouldn't work with my sim free XZ1C.

I therefore swapped to Vodafone and it works great. I also tried my wife's EE sim, and that also worked.

The funny thing is that Vodafones coverage is better in my village, so I don't actually need WiFi calling now!

Hi Anjomi,

Many thanks for your suggestions will check them out. The Three inTouch wi-fi calling still appears to be working for me so far but will obviously have to find another option. Think XZ1C works fine with O2.
