المشروع فاي Project Fi هو مشغل شبكة افتراضية جوالة من گوگل، providing phone, messaging and data services using both Wi-Fi and cellular networks belonging to Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, and Three. The service was launched on April 22, 2015 for the Nexus 6 through invitations only. The invitation system was dropped in March 2016, and support for additional devices, including the Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones, was introduced in October 2016.
Project Fi automatically switches between networks depending on signal strength and speed. It automatically connects to Wi-Fi hotspots with data encryption through an automatic VPN. Phone calls seamlessly transition between Wi-Fi and cellular networks. With all networks combined, Project Fi covers more than 135+ places around the world.
Plans are based on a flat rate, in which a subscription costs $20 per month for unlimited calls and messaging. Money for unused data is credited back to the user's account, while overuse of data costs $10 per gigabyte. A Group Plan, which lets users add members to their subscription, costs an additional $15 per user per month, and offers features including data overview, data notifications, monthly allowances, and the ability to pause users' data usages. A data-only SIM card can be used on supported tablets.
Project Fi has received positive reviews. Critics who tested the service for six months praised its pricing strategy, especially the money-back feature for unused data. They also enjoyed the "seamless" transition between Wi-Fi and cellular networks, and one critic enjoyed the customer service experience. However, the service received criticism for the limited number of phones supported, calling Project Fi "irrelevant" if users don't have and don't want any of those devices.
