WIFIC – Geo Enabled WIFI Hot Spot Location App
From the archive · This story retains its original publication date. Company information may have changed.
Ed: This is a pretty good app for travellers who need access to Wifi but have no idea where to find it in the city they are in. While many Cafes might have wifi, you don’t always want to sit down for food to use it.
The really clever thing is that they cache the hotspot locations on your app/phone so that you can find the location without using expensive 4G data from the local Telco.
It will become more useful as the number of users increase in other countries. I could have used this a number of times recently in Asia.
