Simply Unlimited doesn’t have global usage apps, but the plan works with unlimited calls in the US, Canada, and Mexico.
Fi also has an “Unlimited Plus” plan, which provides access to international data in over 200 countries, no tethering restrictions, up to four additional data-only SIMs for your plan at no additional cost, and 100GB of Google One cloud storage . Unlimited Plus is down $5 across the board, with new prices starting at $65 per line and ending at $40 for four or more lines. The high-speed data cap is from 22 GB to 50 GB. As with the other limited plan, users also get unlimited calls in the US, Mexico, and Canada.
