Wi-Fi Finder App Reviews
Featured Review
“There are many apps that in the Apple App Store that let you find Wi-Fi hotspots, but this app takes the prize.
Wi-Fi Finder finds Wi-Fi hotspots around you. Many other apps like this require an internet connection in order to find the hotspots. This app, however, has the option to download the list of hotspots to your device. When you download the list, the app will work online or offline. I like to recognize apps based on their ability to work offline, and this app does very well at that.
Another thing I like about this app is that it allows you to sort your hotspot results based on whether they are free or paid and by distance. You can aso sort them by the building/business type. For example, you can view all hotel hotspots near you. Another option for sorting is the ISP. So, you can set a filter that shows all hotspots that offer internet provided by AT&T. This gives you a nicely sorted list of the hotspots that you are most interested in.
This app also lets users submit hotspots to the list. The hotspot is verified and then added to the list. If you download the list, you need to re-download the list periodically to keep the most current version.”

“This app is great for finding local hot spots near you and where ever you're trying to go around the world! Personally, I haven't tried their global hot spot feature, but if it works anything like their local data, then it's definitely a great free purchase. You can even download their database of global hot spots, bookmark your favorite hot spots, and add any free/paid hot spots that you find to their database. Truly a great app, I use it on my iPad so that I can get wifi everywhere!”
“I used this a lot on my iPod Touch 2G, doesn't seem necessary on the 4G”
“Great to see where is wifi, and there is a offline data base so handy when you are out of the country!”
“the only wifi finder you will ever need!”
“This probably would be a really helpful map if you didn't live in a super small town. My iPad is Wi-Fi only and there is an offline feature which is really cool. It loads up all of the free wi-fi places around you and you can type in your zipcode and it'll give you a map of where you can go... buuttt like I said I live in a small town so all we have is McDonalds lol”
