It’s not a secret that many AT&T iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus subscribers purchased this new Apple device from this particular carrier because it promised soon AT&T WiFi calling launch date [learn how you can decrease your data usage on iPhone 6s]. The Cupertino-based giant updated its iOS 9 platform however AT&T is still not supporting the feature.
While other companies, including Sprint and T-Mobile iPhone carriers, already offer the support for WiFi Calling, AT&T WiFi calling release has been postponed.

Well, the FCC approved the option however AT&T hasn’t schedule the launch date yet.
Does AT&T iPhone support WiFi calling on iOS 9? No, it does not and it doesn’t say when it is planning to rollout this option in the United States. The regulations related to the FCC are now settled down but users still cannot access the option.
It is worth to mention that AT&T also blasted both Sprint and T-Mobile for not offering TTY feature along with WiFi Calling and such rules are set by the FCC. If you wish to use both cellular and WiFi calling on your iPhone 6s you might even want to unlock AT&T iPhone on iOS 9 and switch to a different network that is supporting this option.
