As this helpful Gizmodo guide to Wi-Fi calling points out, Wi-Fi calling could help users save money by using an internet connection instead of a carrier's network, and unlike other services like Skype and Google Voice, users can make and receive calls with the same phone number they use for traditional phone calls.
