Why is VoWiFi better than calls via WhatsApp or Telegram while traveling?

VoWiFi and calls via messengers (WhatsApp, Telegram) solve the same problem β economical communication abroad, but they have fundamentally different areas of application. VoWiFi often turns out to be a more universal and necessary solution.
The main advantage of VoWiFi is that it is a regular voice call to any number in the world. You don't need the other person to have the same messenger installed, internet, or even a smartphone. This is indispensable for calls:
- To bank and insurance company support services.
- To landline phones (at home, in offices).
- To relatives or friends who don't use modern apps.
- For confirming operations via SMS (if you need to go through an auto-informer).
Calls via WhatsApp/Telegram are good for communication between users of these apps. They are free, but they have limitations:
- Both subscribers must be online and have the app installed.
- Call quality heavily depends on Wi-Fi or mobile internet speed.
- You cannot call a regular landline or mobile number.
Ideal scheme for a traveler: Use messengers for communicating with friends, and VoWiFi β for solving official matters and calling regular numbers. This way, you'll cover all possible communication scenarios and definitely won't overpay for roaming.
VoWiFi is billed according to your home tariff for calls within Russia or to other countries. If you have unlimited minutes, calls via VoWiFi to numbers in your country will be virtually free for you, wherever you are.
