Today we will see How to change that optionwhether you want to allow it (something that will make everything go faster), as if not (getting a single data of your mobile rate). It is very simple and you just have to go to the phone settings.
Wi -Fi assistance on iPhone, how does it work?
The name of this tool or adjustment within the iPhone is called Wi -Fi assistance, and we will find it within the mobile data settings. What this option does is allow the use of data when the Wi -Fi network does not work correctly, either because we are away from it, because there are many people using it and is slow, or simply because by a problem of the router or company at that time not There is connection.
On all these occasions, unless we have moved too far, the wifi icon will continue to appear, so we believe there is no problem, that everything is fluid, and that we are not consuming data, but, nevertheless, it may not be so , and that everything connects quickly because it is using the 4G/5G of our SIM.
Activating or deactivating this option is very simple. We will only have to follow these steps.
- Access to the Settings of the iPhone
- Go to the Mobile data
- Look for Wi-Fi assistance
- Activate or deactivate The box
In my case, in the 1 month period, it has consumed me 1.2 GB of data, which is a barbarity, so as not to know. This may be due to many factors, so if you have a Wi -Fi network with a good signal, that it is not cut, etc., your expense is likely to be much lower, although the opposite can also happen, and that you overcome me, so that It doesn’t hurt to look at it.
I, having an unlimited data rate, I have it active, because it helps me to always work my internet correctly, however, if you have a plan with several GBS, it is likely that you do not want to lose 1 or more with this function, then Although the deactive will continue to have the Internet, and if the router is slow, you will only lose speed, but you will not spend your data.
And you, did you know this function? Default comes active, so you have to be careful if you did not know it, and deactivate it in case you do not want to use it, since it could reach consume a lot of data without realizing. It is preferable to enable it if we see that the connection is very slow and we need to go faster, but manually, although it will depend, as in my case, if you do not mind leaving it always, this is already your thing. Leave us a comment with the amount of GBS that this function has used on your iPhone.
