If your signal drops out, MetroPCS WiFi calling can save the day.

Wi-Fi calling is nothing new — it's been around on various carriers for years. MetroPCS Wi-Fi calling — just like many others — lets you make phone calls or send texts even if you have no cellular signal. Typically when you're out of service, you're out of luck. However, with MetroPCS Wi-Fi calling, you can still get through as long as you're on Wifi even if you don't have a solid signal.
