Verizon Wireless announced Tuesday that it is looking to add Wi-Fi calling for its customers next year.

Fran Shammo, CEO of the wireless carrier, revealed the move at the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Media, Communications and Entertainment Conference, adding that the company plans to make the service available in mid-2015, according to PC Magazine.

"We built our voice platform so extensively that there was never a need for us to tell our customers, 'Oh, our network is not good enough, you need to default to Wi-Fi to complete your call,'" Shammo said.

Verizon is the latest carrier to announce plans for supporting Wi-Fi calling, with T-Mobile announcing last week that it will provide the service for iPhones, Gizmodo reported.

Shammo added that the company needs to complete "some technological work" in its network before making the feature available to customers.

The move also follows a year after Sprint released a similar service for a limited number of Android devices, PC Magazine reported. AT&T also revealed at an investors conference last week that it might get Wi-Fi calling next year.

While Shammo believes Wi-Fi calling provides an inferior experience, he said that it is a feature that customers have been asking for.

"Once you transfer that call to Wi-Fi, the quality of service for me disappears," he said on Wednesday. "I can't guarantee the quality of that call anymore."

Shammo added that Verizon will work to provide Wi-Fi calling while also continuing to expand its LTE network "to be able to deliver the quality of service we think our customers expect."
