Too many local network access after emergency reset Normally my number of local network access is 0 in iPhone security. But when I do emergency reset, number of app that has local network access changes. Why this happens?? Local network access should be 0 when I do emergency reset. Strangely, there is no actual app that have local network access when I click local network access button. But it is still not 0. It only turns 0 when I restart my phone. Am I only one that have this error?

iPhone goes into SOS mode despite internet connection My iPhone continually goes into SOS mode even when there is plenty of internet connection available. Have tried on different servers. Same problem. Turning phone completely off then on sometimes helps but not consistently. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

iPhone 13 VPN turns itself back on after manually turned off My iPhone 13 will turn its VPN back on after I turn it off. Also my phone has the issue of losing Wi-Fi connection randomly. I have other Apple devices in house that has no issue with Wi-Fi connectivity.

Unless your employer or school requires a VPN, there is no valid reason to install a VPN on your phone.

Despite what the fancy advertising might claim.....your phone is less secure using a VPN and VPN will cause other connection problems.

My advice would be turn off and delete the VPN completely from your phone unless you are required to use a VPN.
