If you’re like most people, you probably have Wi-Fi enabled on your Android device. But if you’re not sure how to connect to Wi-Fi automatically on your Android device, we’ve got the answer for you. First, open up your Android phone’s Settings app and select “Wi-Fi.” Then, under “Wi-Fi networks,” select the network that you want to connect to. Next, under “WLAN settings,” set the following parameters: Password: This is the password that will be used to connect to the Wi-Fi network. APN: This is the name of the APN that will be used when connecting to the Wi-Fi network. You can find this information in your phone’s settings. Country code: This is the country code that will be used when connecting to the Wi-Fi network. You can find this information in your phone’s settings. Now that you’ve set up your Wi-Fi connection on your Android device, it’s time to enjoy using it! To connect to a Wi-Fi network automatically on your device, just follow these steps:
Depending on where you are, your phone’s constant scanning for a Wi-Fi network can eat up battery, which is why some people turn it off away from home. We’ll show you a simple setting that can automatically turn Wi-Fi back on when you’re near your common networks.
Turn Wi-Fi On Automatically on Samsung Galaxy
To turn on Wi-Fi automatically on a Samsung Galaxy phone, swipe down one from the top of the screen and tap the gear icon.
In Settings, go to “Connections.”
Now select “Wi-Fi.”
Tap the three-dot menu icon in the top corner and select “Intelligent Wi-Fi.”
Toggle on “Turn Wi-Fi On/Off Automatically.” For more options, tap the text.
Here you can add some of your saved networks to the “Frequently Used” list, which will help your phone turn on Wi-Fi quicker in those areas.
That’s all there is to it!
Turn Wi-Fi On Automatically on Google Pixel
If you’re using a Google Pixel phone, swipe down twice from the top of the screen and tap the gear icon.
Next, go to “Network & Internet.”
Tap “Internet.”
Now scroll down and select “Network Preferences.”
Toggle on the switch for “Turn on Wi-Fi Automatically.”
That’s it! Wi-Fi will automatically be turned on when you’re near high-quality saved networks.
It’s not exactly clear how this works, but the feature likely uses your location to know when you’re near a saved network. It’s nice to never have to worry about racking up data usage because you forgot to turn Wi-Fi back on.
