iOS 17 update WiFi calling not working?

My iPhone 11 running iOS 17.2.1 WiFi calling stops responding. People calling the phone are directed to voicemail right away. I’ve reset the entire phone multiple times. I validated WiFi stability at home. When I turn WiFi calling off the problem goes away

Yep, didn’t notice it not working until a recent upgrade to the new Verizon router. Not sure if it’s just the Apple iOS (17.4) or the router, but it just doesn’t work. The only temporary fix is been to go first to airplane mode, then turn it off. Signal bars suddenly appear but it still doesn’t go back to the WiFi as well. I’ve had several folks say that they can’t call me as it rolls over to VM. MFA is difficult to do as well since an authentication text msg doesn’t come through until I do the Airplane on/off work-around. WTF Apple?

I’m having this same issue. In fact, I’d say I have proof that it is an iOS problem not a router problem since my device on iOS 16.x was making calls fine but my spouse’s phone (on iOS 17.x) was having this problem. When I updated to iOS 17, I started having the same issues. Please help, Apple! I live in an area with almost no cell service and we rely on the WiFi calling for household and work calls as well as emergencies.

Similar story for our household. We live in an area with no cell service coverage. My fiancee and I have used wifi calling here with no issues for over two years but all of a sudden (coinciding with us both completing the iOS 17 update) neither of our phones reliably make or receive calls. We're on TMobile for cellphone and Xfinity for wifi (download speeds of 500mbps+ and upload speeds of 22mbps).

Calls frequently drop after a minute or won't complete at all. I have an iPhoneXR and he has an iPhoneSE. We can make FaceTime audio calls but that definitely doesn't cut it when we both operate businesses out of our home and need to be able to receive and make regular phone calls....

I've gone through all the hoops with TMobile and Xfinity to reset the phones and confirm the internet connection is operational. There are zero issues with those. This is definitively an Apple issue. Apple! Important to resolve this! Super known issue...

Same issue as described by many others ... T-Mobile and XFinity. Poor cell coverage at location, would run iPhone 15 in Airplane with WiFi turned on for calling. After iOS 17 that no longer works. It's not T-Mobile, It's not Xfinity ... iOS 17 is the problem and Apple will not address it.

Want to update this with the solution we found - This must have been an undocumented and apparently unfixable Xfinity issue. We heard from neighbors that they had the same problems, and after switching our wifi to Starlink, this issue has now been resolved.

every time I check, then turn Wi-Fi calling on and off and it goes back to Verizon WiFi like it should.

Like others, we have Verizon and xfinity… all other services are functioning except wifi calling.

we have 1 bar of connectivity for regular calling and wifi calling is now a giant cluster of frustration.

with recent storms and power outages it’s clear that having access to emergency services is not a luxury.

Apple please fix this issue!!

Same issues with WiFi calling…calls dont come through and can’t dial out. Also certain apps are very slow to load or state I don’t have an internet connection yet other devices (computer) and Netflix are working fine.

So annoying please fix!!!

I am having the same problem and have been for the last 5 months or so. I have a 14 pro max. My spouse has a 15 pro with the same problem. My internet is xfinity, provider is ATT.

Calls go right to voice mail but if the caller doesn’t leave a message there is no record of the call in recent. Sometimes I can’t make a call but another try or two or three will succeed.

My WiFi signal is excellent and generally tests above 400 megabits. System is Unifi.

i have reset my SIM no no effect.

Id there any known cause or cure? This is insufferable.

We did - it was changing our Wifi - We had Xfinity and they were just utterly inept. We now have Starlink and don't experience this issue at all.

I am having two issues with the WiFi calling. These both started with the update to iOS 17. I waited until 17.1.1 was available to update from iOS 16 to try and avoid this type of update induced bug. First, when someone calls there is no connection and it goes straight to voicemail. I am usually able to initiate and complete calls although sometime I get a call Failed message.

The second issue is that sometimes I will call out and the receiver will answer. I will hear them but they are not able to hear me.

This is very annoying because I do not have a strong enough signal to make calls from my house although if I go outside to the right spot I can send and receive texts.

These issues are present with both my iPhone 12 and my wife's new iPhone 15. Verizon is our carrier and we have Xfinity cable internet service.

I hope there is a quick resolution to these issues.

WIFI calling is not working for me also. I am traveling in South America currently. I am able to use a local SIM with a data plan and my US line will connect using the cellular data of the other line. However, if I turn on WIFI, my US line says "No Service". WIFI calling was working fine until about 2 days ago.

Same here. WiFi calling not working at my house that has terrible service. My phone seems to keep trying to use the horrible cellular network despite wifi calling and prefer WiFi when roaming turned on. Cmon Apple, please fix this.

Apple no longer seem interested or bothered in this problem. It’s been going on far too long and Genius Bar staff say they have no knowledge …. as if! Either Apple have told staff not to say or do anything or someone is lying. Seriously thinking of buying a different phone!
