Works well and does what is says without consuming space or battery. Would rate 5 stars if they implemented an option like "Keep manual lock only until the current area is left". The "Enable manual WiFi lock" for me is too aggressive: when I turn off WiFi manually it's usually for some special, extraordinary need which happens once in a while. For such use cases, the manual lock should only last until I leave the current network, then WiFi management should be automatic again.
Please add the ability to lock/unlock Wi-Fi from the notification area, rather than having to launch the app. Edit: the app has always been a bit naggy, but it's now asking to rate every other time it opens. My rating will drop by 1* every time it asks from now on!
Ran really well on Android 7; now with Oreo it does not seem to be working 100%, WiFi is not always turned on and it is at times disconnected without apparent reason. Same settings as with Android 7.
This is a good app and would be great, if i didn't have to keep starting it. Even if you have it set to start automatically, it rarely does, and so you have start in manually.
Been using for well over a year and it works great. Does exactly what I need it to do with toggling wifi on and off. Would definitely recommend
The Smart WiFi Toggler can turn on the wifi when you get home. It associates your cell towers to your wifi. If you have a limited data plan, this app is for you!
Superb programming maximizes control over your phone's wifi with an outdated, yet well organized user interface.
Took a day or so to learn my home wifi but now very reactive. Not sure whether it really saves battery but that's a different question.
FAQ page no longer exists and I can't figure out why it's stopped reconnecting to my WiFi when I get home.
A handy, simple tool. gets the job done without having to go through settings.
I downloaded this app because I assumed it would automatically turn wifi off and on when I am at home. It did not.
Works as advertised, without cost and without getting in the way - thanks!
@Dev - is if possible to help me > network node change does not work 2G - 3G/LTE. Note 9, without root
Does exactly what it claims. No more worrying about turning on/off WiFi .
works very well. changes between my 2 routrrs very well.im impressed with this app
Doesn't hold wifi. Notice gets in way of tasks
works and isnt in the foreground, which is nice. i completely forget about it.
works as well as I can expect given GPS capabilities.
love it. one of best software I bought.
Does what it says seamlessly behind the scenes. Awesome
Doesn't work in a reliable fashion
Doesn't work consistently.
works as described most of the time.
An oldie but a goody!
best app ever...
I really wanted to like this one but there are too many silly omissions for me to like it. for one, the network tab is a waste. I have over 75 entries and it doesn't seem to be a way to sort alphabetically. how is that possible? all my network entries simply state automatic connection disabled without any explanation on how I could change that. this app is in desperate need of a detailed user guide or otherwise a lot of the functionality will go unused.
