In line with its commitment to enrich customer experience, Batelco introduced Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi), as part of the evolution of its network advancement to support voice services.
Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) taps into any WiFi connection the customer may have, delivering seamless calls which will automatically switch between VoLTE (Voice over LTE) and VoWiFi to ensure a superior customer experience.
A complementary service to VoLTE, Voice over WiFi will deliver faster call setup and superior high-quality (HD) voice calls. The service is currently applicable to iPhone 6 or later models with customers required to update their phone to the latest iOS software to enjoy the service. Locally, VoWiFi does not cost any extra; the service consumes from the customer’s selected package minute’s allowance.
The voice over WiFi service is delivered in line with Batelco’s pioneering role in leading innovation and transformation for telecom services in the Kingdom of Bahrain, as well as Batelco’s efforts to deliver superior services providing customers with the very best mobile experiences.
This latest innovative delivery from Batelco is in line with the Company’s goals to deploy the latest technologies to maintain Bahrain’s strong reputation for delivering world-class communications solutions and to guarantee the best customer experience. A converged network infrastructure allows Batelco to maximise its network capabilities and speed up the deployment of more new innovative services for its customers.
