SAN JOSE, California - Apple is allowing iPhone owners to use internet calling services over cellular networks.
Several companies offering Voice over internet Protocol - or VoIP - services said this week that Apple now allows their applications to work on the iPhone.
VoIP calling has been available on the iPhone, but only over Wi-Fi connections, which don't have the range of 3G cellular networks.
Apple's earlier decision to block a Google calling application triggered an inquiry by the Federal Communications Commission, which is investigating competition in the wireless industry.
Apple said at the time that it blocked Google Voice because the program duplicated some of the iPhone's features, and that it was still studying the application.
