WiFi assist does not impact your use of cellular at all.
What it does is it switches to cellular if your WiFi signal is weak.
So, if you have unlimited cellular data, it may not impact you; but if you are

you don't burn
How does this setting affect your ability to use cellular when you are out
with no wifi connection? Would it prevent you from having the ability to
connect?
