Deactivating the feature that enables voice calls over a wireless internet connection on a device running Google’s mobile operating system effectively disables this functionality. For instance, a user might choose to disable this function to ensure calls are routed over the cellular network, or to prevent unintentional use of Wi-Fi data for calls.
Disabling this feature can be important for managing data consumption, particularly when on a limited Wi-Fi plan or when concerned about call quality due to inconsistent Wi-Fi signal strength. Historically, this setting was often buried deep within system menus; however, modern operating systems typically offer more accessible controls for managing Wi-Fi calling preferences.
