Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some users have reported an issue where our app works fine on mobile data but does not function properly when connected to a Wi-Fi network. If you\u2019re experiencing this problem, don\u2019t worry\u2014we have identified the cause and easy solutions to fix it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, we\u2019ll explain why this issue occurs and walk you through two simple methods to resolve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Why Does This Happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issue is likely caused by how certain Wi-Fi networks handle domain name system (DNS) requests or network restrictions imposed by internet service providers (ISPs). While mobile networks tend to have more open configurations, Wi-Fi networks, especially those using custom DNS settings, firewalls, or ISP restrictions, may block or interfere with connections required for our app to function properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common reasons why our app may not work on Wi-Fi include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. ISP DNS Restrictions<\/strong> \u2013 Some ISPs use custom DNS settings that may block or delay connections to our app\u2019s servers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Firewall or Network Filtering<\/strong> \u2013 Certain networks (e.g., corporate or public Wi-Fi) may have firewall settings that restrict access to specific services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. DNS Resolution Issues<\/strong> \u2013 Some default DNS servers struggle to resolve our app\u2019s domain or route traffic inefficiently.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Fortunately, there are two simple fixes for this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    How to Fix the Issue<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Solution 1: Use a VPN<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps bypass network restrictions by encrypting your connection and routing it through different servers. This is a quick and easy way to resolve the issue if your Wi-Fi network is blocking or restricting our app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Steps to Use a VPN:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Download and install a VPN app of your choice (e.g., ProtonVPN, NordVPN, ExpressVPN).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Open the VPN app and connect to a server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Once connected, restart our app and check if it now works.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      If using a VPN resolves the issue, then it\u2019s likely that your ISP or Wi-Fi network is restricting access to our app\u2019s servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Solution 2: Change Your DNS to Google\u2019s DNS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Another effective solution is changing your device\u2019s DNS settings to Google\u2019s Public DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). This can help resolve any issues related to DNS restrictions or slow DNS resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Steps to Change DNS on Your Device:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      For Android:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Open Settings<\/strong> > Wi-Fi<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Tap on your connected Wi-Fi network and select Modify Network<\/strong> (or Advanced Settings).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Change the IP settings<\/strong> to Static<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Set the DNS 1<\/strong> to 8.8.8.8<\/code> and DNS 2<\/strong> to 8.8.4.4<\/code>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Save and restart your connection.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        For iPhone\/iPad:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Go to Settings<\/strong> > Wi-Fi<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Tap the (i)<\/strong> icon next to your connected network.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Scroll down and tap Configure DNS<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Select Manual<\/strong>, remove existing servers, and add:\n
            \n
          • 8.8.8.8<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • 8.8.4.4<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Save and restart your connection.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            For Windows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            1. Open Control Panel<\/strong> > Network and Internet<\/strong> > Network and Sharing Center<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Click Change adapter settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            3. Right-click your Wi-Fi network<\/strong> and choose Properties<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            4. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP\/IPv4)<\/strong> and click Properties<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            5. Choose Use the following DNS server addresses<\/strong> and enter:\n
                \n
              • Preferred DNS: 8.8.8.8<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Alternate DNS: 8.8.4.4<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Click OK<\/strong> and restart your connection.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                \n\n\n\n

                Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                If you\u2019re experiencing connectivity issues with our app only on Wi-Fi, the problem is likely related to DNS restrictions or network filtering by your ISP. Using a VPN or switching to Google\u2019s Public DNS are the best solutions to resolve this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
