Hey there! I have recently been attempting to setup wifi-connect for use in a project I am creating. I was able to successfully run the raspbian-install.sh script, as well as then verifying that wifi-connect could be run from the Pi5 that I am using. When I run wifi-connect, the ‘Wifi Connect’ AP becomes available for me to connect to in my iPhone’s wifi menu. Upon clicking this, my iPhone displays that it is “Unable to connect to the network”. There is no other information or a UI that pops up. Has anyone else faced this issue? Am I missing something basic here? Any help would be appreciated 🙂 ---

Are you building WiFi Connect from this repo? [GitHub - balena-os/wifi-connect: Easy WiFi setup for Linux devices from your mobile phone or laptop](https://github.com/balena-os/wifi-connect) I just pushed it to a Pi 5 and the captive portal loaded on an iPhone as expected.
