How to fix Wi-Fi issues on iOS 15

1. Restart iPhone

If you start expiring Wi-Fi issues on iOS 15, try restarting your iPhone before doing anything else. Power your iPhone down, wait a minute, and then power it back on. A quick reboot can have a huge impact on your device’s performance.

  1. If you own an iPhone X or newer, press and hold either volume button and the side button until the power off slider appears. If your iPhone has a Home button, press and hold the side button until the power off slider appears.
  2. Drag the slider, then wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off.
  3. To turn your device back on, press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

2. Reboot Router

If a reboot does not fix your Wi-Fi issues, try to restart your router. It may be possible that the issue you are facing has to do with the network rather than the software update.

3. Reset Network Settings

If you are still facing Wi-Fi issues on iOS 15, you can reset your network settings. Note that this will make your iPhone forget Wi-Fi networks, their passwords, as well as Bluetooth settings.

  1. Launch Settings > Rest.
  2. Tap on Reset Network Settings.
