I have a new router, so I want to delete all of the prior wifi networks that appear in my Wi-Fi setting. When I go to the Wifi settings and select these older networks, I do not have option to "Forget this Network". I have even reset my Network Settings.. but when I come back to Wifi, the old networks are still appearing.
iPhone X, iOS 15
Forget this network only applies to WiFi networks that you have previously tapped on and told your iPhone to use. It causes your iPhone to no longer automatically connect to those networks, and forget their WiFi passwords. But they will not disappear from your list of available WiFi networks. Any available WiFi networks within range will appear in that list.

I don't have old networks to try deleting, so I practiced with my one.
Settings, >Wi-Fi
I clicked on the "i" and then this 2nd screen opened.
At the top of mine, I can see "Forget This Network".
Is this the same steps you took?
Is this device "Supervised"? If so, it might be the reason Forget Network doesn't show.

Thank you, but that is precisely my issue - I don't have the "Forget this Network" option at the top.
No, it’s just my personal phone.
Thanks for your response. All of these networks in question are ones that I had connected to many times before my new WIFI was set up.
FORGET THIS NETWORK?
