Can iphone handle WIFI to mobile data roaming? I am considering getting an iphone but the roaming from WIFI to Mobile data seems to be problematic. Is there a specific setting where you program the phone to use Mobile data if not connected to WIFI? I thought it did but the answer to this question really raised some alarm bells: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251945279?answerId=253710193022#253710193022 I would expect two separate settings for: 1- Connected to "poor" WIFI -> option to use "WIFI assist" 2- Not connected to WIFI-> ?? switch to mobile data ?? What is the setting for scenario #2?

No mobile data option on iPhone 11 pro There is no mobile data options so I cannot use roaming options. how can I recover the function? (I have already tried turning off phone, turning on airplane mode, removing and re-inserting SIM card, resetting network settings and nothing works)

"Cellular data" and "Hotspot" options are missing in the Settings Good day! After one of the updates I found out that "Cellular data" and "Hotspot" options are missing in the Settings. How to fix this? I have iPhone XS, and my iOS now is 15.4.1, but I guess it happened earlier. Thank you!

Check if your wifi assist is turned on. Go to Settings > Cellular or Settings > Mobile Data. Then scroll down and tap the slider for Wi-Fi Assist.
