How do I disable Private Networking in iOS (Version 14 and later)?

The Private Address feature of iOS14 and beyond does not work with some networks. If you wish to disable that feature, follow these directions.

iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch

  1. Open the Settings app, then tap Wi-Fi.
  2. Tap the information button next to a network.
  3. Tap Private Address. If your device joined the network without using a private address, a privacy warning explains why.

Apple Watch

  1. Open the Settings app, then tap Wi-Fi.
  2. Tap the name of the network you joined. If you haven't joined the network yet, swipe left on its name and tap more .
  3. Tap Private Address.
