do you want to add a fake screen for Wifi selection as you can't do it from apple documented api? – Saurabh Passolia Jun 18 '12 at 15:05

You can't directly control the popup - it's a system function. However, if you set "Application uses Wi-Fi" to YES in your app's .plist, it will pop up when the user is not connected to the internet.

still a thing : that once the popup is shown , it does not appear another time (and this for other apps like app store). there is a solution to enforce the call? – Mejdi Lassidi Jun 18 '12 at 15:48

if user turns the phone off the popup reappears when he launchs the app after turning the phone on – Mejdi Lassidi Jun 18 '12 at 15:49

Unfortunately, I don't think Apple provides a way to do this. Like you said, this feature is absent from even Apple's own apps. I suppose if WiFi is needed, you can show a custom alert that says something like "Please connect to the internet", and the user should know to go to preferences and select a network. – wquist Jun 18 '12 at 17:13

yes, just a word: the pop up reappears when you lock your device. – Mejdi Lassidi Jun 19 '12 at 07:03
