Does public mobile support wifi calling? I work in remote location and I need wifi calling badly.

Are there any other option to make calls when no network coverage?

The good thing about PM is that it utilize Bell and Telus towers.

Otherwise, you can use WhatsApp or TextNow app on wifi for free calling and texting.

Such programs are reasonable work arounds, but neither provide Wi-Fi calling. Wi-Fi calling allows anyone to call from a standard telephone and still reach the customer at the regular phone number.
