I’ve got a Wi-Fi extender that I use when I’m working out back, but my phone will randomly connect to it when I’m in the house and would prefer it connect to the home Wi-Fi.
is there any way yet to tell my phone to prioritize a network?

^ the answer. any purpose built mesh system should stream your access seamlessly, extenders won’t.
Most unifi / inter communicating aps that hand off clients to each other using a controller are not mesh systems. Mesh means aps talk to each other wirelessly to pass traffic as a backbone, not to specifically perform client handoff (although it may do that as well as a separate feature)
Unifi does both. They have Mesh systems which also can be managed through the centralized router and can pass you off the mesh system onto other APs seamlessly.
You’re right they do. But just to clarify the difference based on what the poster was asking
I gotcha!
