OK, let’s dig deeper.


  • Have you tried “forgetting” the connection on both ends, the re-pairing?
  • How about Reset Network Settings?
  • Do you have a 3rd party VPN installed, even if you are not using it? If so, delete the VPN profile in Settings/General/VPN & Device Management/VPN. Don't just turn it off; delete the profile. If that fixes it, you can try reinstalling VPN.

As your post has nothing to do with the subject of this thread (Wi-Fi connection problems) you should post a NEW message by clicking “Ask this community” at the top of this page.


However, the simple answer is you cannot download anything without logging in to your Apple ID in the App Store and having a payment method recorded, even for free apps.
