Wi-Fi Calling option missing from iPhone settings

Hello everyone,

I am facing an issue where the Wi-Fi Calling option is completely missing from my iPhone settings (under Cellular > Cellular Data Options).

Here are the details of the situation:

  • Carrier: Vodafone Egypt.
  • Carrier Support: When I check the "My Vodafone" app, it explicitly shows that my SIM card and mobile are ready for Wi-Fi Calling (and it successfully works on other Android devices on the same network).
  • Troubleshooting Steps Already Taken:
    • Contacted carrier customer support, and they confirmed the service is supported and active on my line.
    • Checked for Carrier Settings updates (Settings > General > About).
    • Performed a full Reset Network Settings on my iPhone.
    • Restarted the device multiple times.

Despite all of this, the toggle does not appear anywhere in my settings, and I couldn't activate it through the carrier app (it throws a "Something went wrong" error).

Could this be related to a missing carrier bundle update for my region, or is there any workaround to force the Wi-Fi Calling menu to show up?

I have attached a screenshot of my Cellular Data Options page. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Make a call with Wi-Fi Calling - Apple Support

You'll need to escalate the issue with Vodafone.

The bottom line here is that it is your carrier that provides the settings to the iPhone that will be displayed.


Please contact Vodaphone regarding this.
