Apple has had several updates since this video. If you are on iOS 16, from the Wi-Fi settings, tap the new "Edit" button and authenticate yourself, and you'll see a list of Known Networks, which are all of the hotspots you've saved to your iPhone or iCloud Keychain from your other Apple devices.

For years I have made it a habit to have things like WiFi and Bluetooth turned off. Not because of security so much(but it is a positive) but because if they are on when not needed, it drains the battery faster. One thing I like about my Samsung, are the Bixby routines. Mine is set to turn on WiFi at home, but as soon as I leave and the connection is broken(too far away) it turns WiFi off.

Only reason I know to that it is better to keep WiFi off when you are out in public is that you will lose more battery while it is constantly scanning also having WiFi on helps keep your location available for your device because some software out there can tell where you are by the nearest WiFi location.

My Android must be too old as I did not have any of the settings to switch off as you suggested. I did find a "nearby scanning" feature that I disabled and will be vigilant on turning off Wi-Fi when I leave. Thanks for the tips! Appreciate!

I have the latest Android and I also did not find Wi-Fi in the settings, maybe somewhere in the developer mode or somewhere else..

For iPhone, you can view a list of all networks you've connected to if they synced to your appleid's keychain on a mac in network preferences. They should all be the same if you're on the same Apple ID

So, the first 10 seconds and video description translates to me as "This content is not for me, I never use WiFi, just LTE Data, but I will still play this video thru to the end and leave a comment/like because Liron's channel has saved my ass so many times." I may not be able to afford a Patreon but I can afford **engagement**

@@percyfaith11 There is no reason to use it when 4G LTE v WiFi has no noticable difference in my area. "Data-Caps" as we knew them 10 years ago are a total thing of the past when it comes to major telecoms. The less devices on my home network, the better.

After watching your video I set up an automation to turn off my wifi when I leave home and back on when I return. Works well and now I don’t have to remember to do it.

Thanks, Liron, this was very educative and I learned a lot. I do want to correct something in your video. Your "known network list" does exist on the iPhone and you can delete/forget them. You have to go into Settings > Wi - Fi > Edit (top right corner) and you will get a list of your known networks and you can clear them out on the iPhone
