Not sure if this will help anyone on iOS 13 with a Anova Pro or the Latest WiFi Anova.

I have both and can successfully move between the Pro and Sandard using this method.

> I had this issue recently on my iPhone and got round it by turning off the “auto-join” option for my home network. Settings\>WiFi\> Click on your home network name Turn off “Auto-Join” Then I performed the connection to the Anova, I “assume” the phone is rejoining the home network before it has the chance to establish the connection with the Anova to perform the setup Once through the Anova set up process I turned the “Auto Join” option for my home network and everything was all fine from then…

Works on iOS 14 Beta too, but you also have to turn off “Private Address” for the temporary WiFi network that the Anova creates during the set up when it prompts you for the code…just under “Auto Join” in the iOS Settings WiFi section
