I was trying to connect to my Raspberry Pi on a different network but I could not connect. How would I get around this?

What do you mean by "different network"? Is this someone else's home wifi network?

If by different network you mean a different IP range, then you need a router in between to perform NAT

This sounds like it should be in Networking forum not Servers. 

But as others have stated, please provide detail of the setup for a more specific answer. 

 

 

I'm going to assume you're not talking about different LANs, and are trying to connect to one over the internet? Keep in mind the VNC port needs to be open on the firewall, and port forwarded on the receiving end. 

 

If it is a LAN, then you need to make sure you setup routing between your LAN's, and have opened any ports on your firewall (if you have one) between the networks.

I want to connect to my Raspberry Pi 3B+ running Raspian 64 bit that has VNC server, but on a different WIFI network but I can not connect using VNC viewer (i can connect on the same network). is there a way to connect on different WIFI networks?

When you say different WiFi networks, are the same hardware but different SSID's with different network subnets (e.g 192.168.1.xx and 192.168.2.xx) ?

As already said, if theyre different networks in a LAN, you need a router between the networks so traffic can be negotiated between them.
