Wi-Fi and cellular data not working on my iPhone 12 after iOS 18.5 update I updated my iPhone 12 (locked/T-mobile) to iOS 18.5 yesterday. Ever since, I have two issues: Wi-Fi will no longer 'fully' connect: When I go into settings, I can see my normal wifi network, see the full signal strength and the green checkmark showing that I am connected. When I look at the top right of my screen, it still shows that I using cellular network, not the wifi. My data is not working for 'most' of my apps. Whether my WiFi is on or off on my phone, I cannot access any data through my apps (app store, mail, reddit, youtube, maps, waze, etc). This is even when I have good 5G cell signal. What I have tried: I have restarted my phone several times. I tried connecting to a friend's wifi at a different location, and the result is the same: green check mark in wifi settings, but no connection symbol nor any data connectivity. I have reset my network settings. I have tried to use data with wifi turned off. I have turned my cellular data roaming on and off. What still works: I can still make phone calls and send/receive text messages. My Tesla app works. I made a Genius Bar appointment for later today. When I got a confirmation text and a suggestion to run diagnostics ahead of time, my phone cannot connect to Apple support to run the diagnostics. When I go into my phone's software update to see if an update to the update is available, my phone will not connect "because you are not connected to the internet". [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Wi-Fi blocking mobile data on my iPhone When out and about my phone detects a WiFi signal and I am not connected to that particular WiFi my mobile data stops working. I have to go to settings and tell the phone to forget the wifi or simply turn off my wifi. Then the mobile data kicks in again. Why on earth should I have to take either step? I am running the 18.2.1 version. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

If data you mean cellular data, then contact your cellular data provider to troubleshoot.
