Help Understanding Wi-Fi

Hi all.

It seems that when I do a wifi sync the pocket is connecting directly to my phone (not the wifi network). So, it turns off my Wi-Fi connection and then I’m having to manually turn it back on. I’m on a Samsung Flip 6. Thoughts?

Hi @Jvalenti,

Pocket temporarily creates its own Wi-Fi hotspot, and the app connects to it to complete the sync, that’s why your phone switches away from your home Wi-Fi network during the process. It’s recommended to not connect to any other wifi connection when sync process is in progress.

Depending on your phone settings, it can/should automatically reconnect to your WiFi network. What kind of phone do you have?
