When does it drop Wi-Fi? All iPhones drop Wi-Fi when the screen locks to prevent excessive battery drain, unless the phone is connected to power. If it does it when using the phone, try turning off Wi-Fi Assist in Settings/Cellular.


Beyond that, you will have to do some troubleshooting. Start with restarting your router by turning it off for a few seconds. Next try forgetting the network and then reconnecting. Beyond that Reset Network Settings.


Does this only happen with your home Wi-Fi network, or all wi-Fi networks?
