Fido customers with a Pixel 2 or Pixel 2 XL are now able to upgrade their devices to utilize Wi-Fi calling.

Wi-Fi calling comes alongside the December 2017 Android security update, as well as an update to Android 8.1 Oreo.

The 2017 Pixel twins join the the LG G4, G5 and G6, as well as the Samsung Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, S7, S7 Edge, S8 and S8+ as the only Android devices that can currently access Wi-Fi calling on Fido’s network.

Once activated — and assuming your device remains connected to a stable Wi-Fi connection — the Pixel twins should default to Wi-Fi calling.

Update: While Rogers Upgrade site states this feature is ‘coming soon,’ we are receiving tips that customers are able to enable Wi-Fi calling support.
