    Does anyone know how WiFi Calls works on iPhone 7 when abroad?

    My Hk carrier is Smartone.

    Smartone wifi calling app works only in HK.

    You can use wifi to call between idevices using in built messenger.

    For other u have to use 3rd party apps like imo whatsapp etc etc..

    You mean it's an app? When I logged onto WiFi. Suddenly at the top left it said WiFi Calls. I don't have any app installed.

    For smartone there is an seperate app for wifi calling.

    In iphone you can also use inbuilt wifi calling option over supported carriers. Do you see wifi calling option on setting>phone?

    Yes it is enabled. I'm wondering if that means you can make free calls or if you are charged roaming.

    You can make wifi calls to call local numbers when you have no network coverage. I think it wont work with roaming, as smartone may not allow.
