Go to Settings/Wi-Fi and tap on the i next to a network name, then turn on Auto-Join.
Also, go to Settings/Cellular and turn OFF Wi-Fi Assist.

I have to go to Settings/WiFi, swipe left to disconnect and then right to reconnect.
The issue is not isolated to a single WiFi network, it happens when I reconnect to any known network after being in cellular coverage.
I've tried resetting network settings and forgetting the network and reconnecting and neither helps.
I’ve been to the Apple store where they ran diagnostics but found no hardware issues. They recommend reinstalling iOS which I’d prefer not to do. They also suggested upgrading to 14.6 which didn’t fix the issue.
Appreciate any further suggestions you might have.
I’ve never had a phone that didn’t switch seamlessly. What do you mean by Wi-Fi restart?
Thanks, but my phone had already been set to Auto-Join, and turning off wifi assist did not help. Any other suggestions?
