    It seems the iphone's wifi turns off when the phone is in standby. So that means if you are using wifi calling you will miss calls until you wake the phone up. Why have Apple put this rediculous feature in???:mad: Is anyone else noticing this?



    Is there anyway around this? Any apps to keep the phone wifi active when in sleep mode?

    Iphone max. Iphones when in standby after so many minutes wifi turns off. It seems to be a " battery saving " feature, google it and you'll see what i mean.
