Just
after upgrading iPhone and iPad Air to iOS 11.2 and many users when
toggle Bluetooth and wifi from control centre, a pop comes up with this
notification that “Disconnecting Nearby
Wi-Fi Until Tomorrow”, Similar is the case for Bluetooth with message "Disconnecting
Bluetooth Devices Until Tomorrow." . The message is ambiguous as it
appears that user won’t be able to connect to Bluetooth-needed devices again
and that user won’t be able to use home internet again.
What
does these message means in iOS 11.2
It
means in iOS 11 (not just 11.2) when you turn off Bluetooth and WiFi in control
centre, it doesn’t really turn it off, but only disconnects from your
accessories until tomorrow. If you need to reconnect you can turn on Bluetooth
or WiFi again and it will reconnect to them again. You just disconnect it from
the current connection. You can re-connect anytime. Nothing has changed, it is
just iPhone try to connect until tomorrow. You aren’t locked out. You don’t
need to reconnect manually tomorrow, it will do it automatically. If you have
observe the wifi keeps on turning itself after sometimes in, this happens after
one day after toggled off.
From
Apple support document :
The
new messages will appear the first time the Control Centre toggles are used.
Subsequent uses will show a message at the top that reads "Disconnecting
Nearby Wi-Fi Networks Until Tomorrow" or "Disconnecting Bluetooth
Devices Until Tomorrow." While Apple's new pop-ups offer a better
explanation than was previously available, there are other situations where
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth might be turned back on sooner than one day. When you use
the Wi-Fi toggle in Control Center, Wi-Fi is disabled until one of the
following conditions occurs:
-
Wi-Fi is reactivated using Control Center
-
You connect to a Wi-Fi network using Settings > Wi-Fi
-
You walk or drive to a new location
-
It's 5:00 a.m. local time
-
Your iOS device is restarted
When
you use the Bluetooth toggle in Control Center, Bluetooth is disabled
until one of the following conditions occurs:
-
Bluetooth is reactivated using control Center
-
You connect to a Bluetooth accessory in Settings > Bluetooth
-
It's 5:00 a.m. local time
-
Your iOS device is restarted
Turning
off wifi or Bluetooth from control does not permanently turn them off but To
more permanently disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on an iOS device running iOS 11,
it's necessary to go to the Settings app and toggle these features off in the
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth sections.
