Is there some way to know when you are on bluetooth vs wifi?

Is wifi on by default when on a network, even right next to the phone? I can't find anywhere that I can check to see if I am using bluetooth or wifi. As far as I know it should be on bluetooth by default when near your phone and switch automatically to wifi when away, and back to bluetooth near the phone again. I was just away from my phone and it buzzed and said wifi is off to save battery. I didn't turn it off and I am in a wifi zone at work and want the ability to be away from phone. So anyway, I come back to my phone and check my bluetooth settings and it doesn't show as connected. And my watch says it is now connected to wifi. If I go into bluetooth settings on my watch I only get an option to scan for devices and same as on my phone. If I set them both to scan they don't find anything.

Am I totally missing how this is supposed to work? Thanks for any help.

Well the only way to check for wifi status that I know of is to swipe down on the home screen and if its connected to wifi you will see an icon next to the battery status. As far as I know the way it works is if you go out of BT range it connects to wifi but unfortunately once you are back in BT range although it will reconnect via BT the wifi doesn't automatically turn off. From what I see the wifi only times out after a preset time being on.
