Make calls over Wi-Fi
If your cellular carrier offers Wi-Fi calling, you can use your AppleWatch to make and
receive calls over Wi-Fi instead of the cellular network—even when your paired iPhone isn’t
with you or is turned off. Your AppleWatch just has to be within range of a Wi-Fi network
that your iPhone has connected to in the past.
To see if your carrier offers Wi-Fi calling, see the Apple Support article Make a call with
Wi-Fi calling, and enable Wi-Fi calling on your iPhone.
1. On your iPhone, go to Settings> Phone, tap Wi-Fi Calling, then turn on both Wi-Fi
Calling on This iPhone and Add Wi-Fi Calling For Other Devices.
2. Open the Phone app on your AppleWatch.
3. Choose a contact, then tap .
4. Select the phone number or FaceTime address you want to call.
Note:You can make emergency calls over Wi-Fi, but when possible, use your iPhone over a
cellular connection instead—your location information is more accurate. You can do this on
your AppleWatch by temporarily disconnecting from Wi-Fi.
See call info on AppleWatch
While you’re talking on your iPhone, you can view call information on your AppleWatch in
the Phone app . You can also end the call from your AppleWatch (for example, if you’re
using earphones or a headset).
