Automatically switch iPhone to Wi-Fi at home The T-Mobile signal is weak at our house. You would think the iPhone 13 would be smart enough to switch from cellular to Wi-Fi but it isn't. Is there a way to automatically toggle to Wi-Fi at a location and have cellular back on when leaving? Or is there some other method to toggle the call to Wi-Fi and leave cellular on. All too often I receive a call at home and realize the connection is bad and have to ask the person to call me back so I can turn off cellular. And then I may forget to turn it back on when I leave. This has become a bit more difficult with iOS 18 as the cellular icon on the swipe down screen has become smaller and more choices are offered? Signal is one to two bars in house depending on where in house.

Because there is a cellular app. What does it do when you click on it? If it doesn’t do anything just ignore it.

Have you tried deleting the cellular network icon? Have you tried resetting your Control Center?
