Hello HowToMen, this is my first time posting here.

I launched my WiFi Finder app about 2 months ago. It's a community driven app that catalogues publicly available WiFi networks + their passwords if required.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gavin.wififinder&pcampaignid=web\_share

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/wifi-finder-password-map/id6759633926

My app isn't the only one on the market, but I think mine stands out above the rest for some of the following reasons:

- Minimal ads: No popup ads or unskippable video ads. There will never be an ad that interrupts your usage of the app or wastes your time.

- Offline Mode: Perfect for travelling, you can download all WiFi info for any city in the world. Additionally, any cached WiFi info is also usable offline.

- Speed Filter: Looking to do some work and need fast internet? Filter by speed to only show hotspots that are fast enough for you.

- Share via QR: If you want to share the WiFi network with someone who doesn't have the app, tap the QR button and they can scan it to automatically join. You can also share an image of the QR code + WiFi details to any other apps if your choice.

- Category Filter: Looking for a library? Or a cafe? Filter locations by type of establishment and find the environment you want.

- 22 Language Support: The entire app can be used in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Turkish, Arabic, Hindi, Polish, Ukrainian, Swahili, & Greek.

- Built in Speed Test: My app features a built in speed test that utilizes cloud flares speed testing servers. These tests help the community find fast WiFi.

- And many more: Track your contributions, plentiful customization settings, favorites list, light/dark/OLED themes, KM/Miles options...

The app is fairly young, and so far I have 9,000+ WiFi hotspot entries worldwide. If you don't see any WiFi hotspots near you, let me know. Users are adding data every day, but I try to fast track it by adding lots of info myself manually.

I hope you enjoy it if you try it out. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

This is my first app, and I'm pretty proud of how it's doing so far. I'm almost at 2k downloads in a little over 2 months since release. If you include iOS downloads (868) I'm at 2.5K+

My app isn't the first to do what it does, but I think it's the best at it.

I searched, and there were a number of apps that helped you find public WiFi hotspots + their passwords, but they were all awful:

\- They were bloated with unskippable video ads

\- They flat out didn't work

\- They hid passwords behind paywalls

I thought all the current offerings were awful, so I designed my app, WiFi Finder. Some of my key features that I think make my app stand out above the rest:

\- Minimal ads, no popup or video ads that inturrupt your use of the app

\- Always 100% free, nothing is hidden behind paywalls

\- Download areas for offline use

\- Filter WiFi hotspots by network speed

\- Built in speed test

\- Support for 22 languages

\- Light/Dark/OLED themes

\- Filter locations by type of establishment (cafe, bar, restaurant, hotel etc)

If you give it a try, I'd love any feedback. I just pushed update 2.1.0 that added some important bug fixes and design issues.

If you don't see any WiFi entries in your city, let me know what city you happen to be in. The app currently has 8,725+. WiFi spots worldwide across several cities/countries/regions. (Canada, USA, France, Australia, Japan, South America, SE Asia and more). I'm trying to add as many as I can personally, but it's meant to be a community driven app.
