Auto on wifi

[Tristan Cruz]

Hi, just upgraded from a Note 8 to the S22 Ultra. On my old phone I enabled auto-on wifi even with location turned off and it still works turning the wifi on and off when I left and enter the network. The S22 Ultra wants me to turn on location services to toggle the auto-on wifi on, which I did, but I turned the services back off and it still shows it enabled. But it is darkened and can't toggle it back off. Will it still work with location services off? The Eye Comfort Shield works with the services off, but the auto on wifi seems to keep the wifi on after leaving my network. Would Bixby routines be an option without the need to turn on location services?

i've never heard of auto on/off wifi setting with location. i have always used the method of turning the wifi off when i leave my house, then turn it back on when i got home and the phone learned in 1 day to automatically turn my wifi off once i left my house and it wasn't detected, and then back on when i get home just like my note 10+ did. i'm pretty sure it tells it will do that in the wifi settings, i just forget where.

I use Bixby Routines, as wel,l to turn off Wifi when I get in the car and back on when I exit. Works great.
