Use WiFi Map to Connect to Free WiFi Worldwide

The app WiFi Map has earned four out of five stars from the Google Play store by helping its 673,537 users find free WiFi wherever they travel throughout the world.

It’s commonly misunderstood as a hacking app which it is not. Each of the more than 120 million networks currently listed in this app landed there because its owner added it. This means that not only does the application contain a list of all the open WiFi networks with no password, it also houses access to numerous secured WiFi options.

A Vibrant Community of Helpful People

This results in thousands of available options in each city.

Finding a Network to Use

Before opening the app, check your location services settings. The app requires a setting of ‘Always’ to obtain the Free WiFi list.
Open the app to access the main screen with its map and list. Both options show the locally available WiFi hotspots. People who process information best textually can use the list to easily find what they need. People who process information best graphically can use the map to easily find what they need.

Simply choose a WiFi by touching or clicking on its listing or map symbol. This opens a detailed screen with information on the network. You’ll find the network’s name, WiFi’s speed, its address and the WiFi password, if required.

To connect to a specific WiFi, choose the “Navigate” button. The app helps you connect to the WiFi while you remain within its signal range.

Sometimes, users add a WiFi, but forget to update the WiFi password when they change it. That results in bad data in the application’s database. Here’s a trick to find a working WiFi. Use the filtering mechanism and limit the choices to “recently used.” This brings up WiFis in the area currently in use.
