I keep getting this message (see pic) on my new iPhone 14 pro. I'm usually connected to wi-fi so why has it not finished downloading whatever it needs to? Also, I tap the "Use Wi-Fi" option, but not even sure what that does, cause I'll get the message again at a later time. Please advise.
I solved the issue. It was just somehow stuck on the restore process. Had nothing to do with wifi settings or connections, or apps. All I had to do was “stop” the restore, and then start it over. But the notifications never told me that. They just kept simply saying that I needed to connect to wifi, and upon doing that, nothing changed.
This all began when I just purchased a new iPhone and did a standard migration old phone to new. Nothing out of the ordinary. But it got stuck somewhere on the Restore, and wasn’t smart enough to just say “I’m stuck”, or better yet just resolve it in the background.

Check your WiFi Router / Modem for --> Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points ...
Connecting to Wifi is the first part and then getting connected to the Internet is the second
I don't know what your doing under which app?
There are two restores.
Well if the message is asking me to connect to Wi-Fi, then that would mean there is no Wi-Fi symbol displayed.
No more questions please, I must want a simple answer. A little peaved at Apple for this annoying glitch.
What happens when you tap Use Wi-Fi?
Like I said, nothing. Nothing that I can tell. And the next time I leave wi-fi the message comes back up.
Not sure what you mean. It's just a system-level message, happens when I leave a wi-fi area. What, am i the only one who has this issue? I was not expecting more questions from the community, just a quick solution. Come on you guys.
Under which app you are getting this message alert?
I asked you this because I do not see any Wi-Fi symbol in your status bar except the battery icon. Nothing on the left of the status bar either.
"Use Wi-fi to Restore..." message
