can I prioritise to wifi calling at home?

I live in a poor reception area, 2, 1 or no bars.

I have 'wifi calling ' enabled.

On 1 or 2 bars I can call but the call gets into difficulty and eventually the line drops out.

Can I force my phone/Smaty to prioiritse to always make wifi calls from home? (It seems to only do a wifi call if the signal is too poor at the beginning of the call)

thanks for any help

    Smarty dont seem to want to do it.
    Other providers that piggy back on 3 will do it so why smarty cant/wont is a mystery.

    Hi! Following on from Gary's advice you can set up routines (if you have Android 13 it's built in otherwise Tasker might work) that switches flight mode on and off depending if you're home or not. I had the same problem and worked around it this way ğŸ˜€

    Yes, switch on airplane mode then just re-enable wifi.

    Works for me.
