Quite possibly one of the most annoying things I ever felt my iPhone did was ask me every time it detects a WiFi network if I wanted to join it. Now, I could understand why it would do this and how, for some people, it would actually be rather nice. But for me, it was just plain annoying.

Luckily, there’s a super easy way to turn it off. Just hop on into the Settings app, go to Wi-Fi, and then slide “Ask to Join Networks” to off.

I always knew that this switch was there, but I just never took the time to figure out exactly what it meant. I’m sure glad I did though. Having it off is great. Now when I want to join a network I just hop into settings - although all my known networks usually auto-join - but when I have no interest whatsoever in joining a network, my iPhone doesn’t ask me fifty times.
