Wi-Fi Calling on iPhone
So, iOS 27 was officially released today and it does in fact add Wi-Fi Calling to the Fizz network.
As described earlier when testing it on Pixel,

contrary to Fizz' official communication, there seem to be no restrictions as to from where it can be used for the time being. Billing from my wallet is at the same price as using Fizz' cell network in my coverage area. Wi-Fi Calling, when enabled and a WiFi network available, is preferred over VoLTE.
iPhones were also added to the list of compatible phones in the Fizz Wi-Fi Calling FAQ.

Thanks for sharing the info!
RCS messaging also seems to be working. I can now be part of RCS group chats with my Android friends and not miss any more messages 🙂

Interesting. That is in fact what it says in the Fizz FAQ, you need unlimited texts in your plan in order to use RCS.

Then again, on an Android phone, it registers for RCS regardless. On iPhone, it does not.
