Abstract
Various embodiments of the disclosure relate to an apparatus and method for providing a call function in an electronic device. The electronic device includes first communication circuitry, second communication circuitry, and a processor. The processor registers with a network using NR communication through the first communication circuitry, identifies whether a call connection using a network using the wireless LAN communication is possible, based on determination that establishment of a communication link related to a call connection with an external electronic device using the network using the NR communication and/or a network using LTE communication fails, and connects a call with the external electronic device over the network using the wireless LAN communication, based on determination that the call connection using the network using the wireless LAN communication is possible. Other embodiments may be possible.
