Sucking up your preciously limited phone data while you’re out and about is a rookie move, one that I’m even personally guilty of – I used to go through an entire month’s worth of data in three days while streaming music on the highway because I’m too cheap to pay for unlimited. Since then I’ve switched to T-Mobile so that I can have free music streaming, but for those of you who have standards and don’t want to have to admit to your friends that you don’t have Verizon or AT&T, yet refuse to pay for unlimited data, fear not – for WeFi Pro is here to solve all your problems.
According to Gizmodo, the app features a database with millions of Wi-Fi hotspots as well as the ability to tell you which ones are the best and most stable. So the next time you’re of travelling the country, thousands of miles away from your router, you’ve got options:
The app…features a database of several hundred million Wi-Fi hotspots from across the world, and it can show you the best and most stable options in your current area (saving you some time testing useless ones). You can help out other users by tagging and identifying new hotspots that you come across, and you can blacklist certain networks too.
Part of the app’s appeal is the way it works in the background, turning Wi-Fi off when it’s not needed and alerting you if there’s a better Wi-Fi connection available than the one you’re currently on. While it makes most sense for those on the move, it also helps manage the Wi-Fi networks at home or at work too.(via)
WeFi Pro is currently available on both iOS and Android.
