If you have WLAN assistant and have turned on "Stay Connected", as the camera WIFI does not support an internet connection, there will be a popup "Can‘t connect to the internet" as phone WIFI tends to connect to other WIFI that supports network, please do not choose "Switch" and click "No thanks" instead, otherwise, you may not access the VIOFO APP successfully, Another solution is to disable "Stay connected" directly.
Tips FYI:
There are two ways to test the camera's WIFI connection channel.
