    Check that Wi-Fi is enabled: Settings > Wi-Fi.

     

    If it is already enabled, try resetting the network settings on your iPhone (you will need to re-establish your Wi-Fi connection again afterwards, so have your password ready):

     

    - Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

     

    Then restart both your iPhone and Apple Watch:

     

    - To restart your watch: Press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider; Drag the slider to turn off completely; Afterwards, press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

    I have the same problem as you did and i tried all of that and it will work for awhile then it went back to the same...the spinning wheel on the iPhone ..all of the other WIFI things work but the iPhone ..I was told that there might be too many things in the WIFI and the router might be at the max of allowed connections and also there are two WIFI connections -the phone and the watch-and this might be an issue..so now i have to take my phone off of WIFI to download updates then turn on WIFI to AirPrint  until i can figure it out
