iPhone 12 wifi

When I try to connect to a wi fi in a cafe there is a tick on wi fi and name of the wifi and it should work but I cannot connect . I try to Google but the word no internet connection pops up. At home there are no WiFi problems. How do I resolve this.

iPhone 12, iOS 16

When you are not at Home, you use Public Wi-Fi, see -> Use captive Wi-Fi networks on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch -> Use captive Wi-Fi networks on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support (UK)


Nowadays, Public Wi-Fi is offered for free, in big cities, shopping centers, in Public Transport (bus & train), hotels, airport, restaurants and others.

That depends on where you live.

If at the moment you are away from home and there is no Public Wi-Fi, you have to use Mobile Data, for sure go to -> Settings -> Mobile network -> Mobile Data -> ON.
