   I found this by searching which says it can be done but that's old,   
   https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/39916/is-there-a-way   
   to-automatically-turn-off-wifi   
      
   On my recent model phone is a setting called "Turn on Wi-Fi automatically"   
   which is off by default.   
      
   It's in Settings, Connections, Wi-Fi, top right Advanced, Intelligent   
   Wi-Fi, and then Turn on Wi-Fi automatically   
      
   Below that there is also an option to look at your "Wi-Fi control history"   
   which says "View apps that have turned Wi-Fi on or off recently" so it sure   
   looks like apps can turn on wifi automatically and then shut them off.
