Vodafone Ukraine Extends Wi-Fi Call Duration from 10 to 60 Minutes After Mobile Signal Loss

Extended Wi-Fi Calling Time Enhances Connectivity

According to ХВИЛЯ: Vodafone Ukraine has announced a significant update, increasing the allowed duration for calls over Wi-Fi when the mobile network signal is lost-from just 10 minutes up to a full 60 minutes. This enhancement helps users maintain communication in areas with poor mobile coverage such as shelters, parking garages, and basements.

Previously, Wi-Fi calling was limited to a brief 10-minute window, but with the new extension, customers can stay connected for an hour. To enable this feature, subscribers need to activate Wi-Fi calling in their phone settings. Importantly, this service remains free of charge.

Benefits of the Updated Service

Vodafone Ukraine confirmed the change via a Facebook post, stating:

This upgrade offers critical support for communication during emergencies, ensuring that people can reach others despite challenging conditions.

Given the frequent disruptions caused by air raid alerts and natural disasters, this measure addresses the essential need for reliable connectivity. By extending Wi-Fi call time, Vodafone Ukraine reinforces the importance of dependable communication channels, providing peace of mind and safety for its users in all circumstances.
