Hello jonfromelgin,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you want to use Wi-Fi calling on an iPhone, it needs to be at least an iPhone 5s running iOS 8. Your iPhone 5 does not support Wi-Fi calling.
Wi-Fi calling is available for T-Mobile in the United States. You need an iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iPhone 6, or iPhone 6 Plus. Your device needs to be using iOS 8 and have a Wi-Fi Internet connection.

Because Apple did not include that feature in the iPhone 5.
Make an iOS update Apple...
You are not talking to Apple.
thanks. I think is more of a software update than hardware. new iphone 7 can't wait lol
The same version of iOS runs on the iPhone 5 as the iPhone 5s. Therefore, if the iPhone 5 could run it then they would have included it. Apple would have no reason to keep it out of the iPhone 5 if it could handle it.
true. I had to call from the office. my sis has and android s5 m she uses wifi calling
