Connect to a valid JioFi Connection – JioCall app

JioFi is a multipurpose router as with WiFi connectivity it also allows you to make calls using the JioCall app. This allows the user to make a video as well as voice calls using the Jio SIM present in the JioFi router.

The app JioCall is available for iOS as well as Android devices. But recently many of the JioFi users are unable to use their JioFi router to make voice and video calls specifically on their android phones.

Almost all the android phone users who have updated their phone software or android version to 10 and above are experiencing this issue. And instead of numerous complaints and reports by JioFi Customers, there is no official solution or update fix for the JioCall app.

Personally I have seen many JioFi customers who are running at the Jio Store and Jio Service Center to report the issue jio call not detecting jiofi router. In reply to the customer’s complaints, those service centers and store guys don’t have the solution to fix this issue.

Problem Occurring in JioCall app after Android 10 Update

Every android user who are running their phone on Android 10 and above are unable to configure the JioCall app with JioFi connection. Whenever a user tries to launch the JioCall app, the JioFi option is grayed out and it gives a message connect to a valid JioFi connection.

So if you are experiencing the same problem in your JioCall app on Android 10 or above or below versions, then we have found the fix for it.
