iPhone Not working without wifi

Apps that require wifi to work on my phone, don’t work without it. If I’m in an area with the best service but no wifi, my apps won’t work. I have unlimited data so I’m not sure why this is a problem. I have turned my phone on and off, updated it, and I even took the SIM card out and put it back in. I can still call and message people without a problem. I already talked to my carrier provider over the phone and they said they don’t know why my phone is like this. If you know how to fix this issue, please help!! This issue started 2 months ago. I already made a post about this topic but only 1 person helped

Hello ashley_handley.


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


We haven’t noticed any application in the App Store that will only work on while using Wi-Fi connection. Did you mean those apps need internet service? If so, have you turned cellular data on for those apps? This section of the iPhone User Guide explains how: View or change cellular data settings on iPhone


If you have apps which require a Wi-Fi connection to work, we would recommend reaching out to the app developer to see if they can also support your cellular data connection with these apps.

Cheers.
