About WiFox

WiFox is a continually updated map of airport and lounge wifi passwords from around the world. In map view, you can tap any wifi icon where wireless information is available, and use the button to copy the password to the clipboard. The map is available offline (when you download the appropriate Google Maps) so you don’t need an Internet connection to use WiFox when you’re traveling.

*Click Copy to easily paste passwords into wireless network settings.

*Users can also add passwords they find from airports around the world. Those passwords are then sent to foXnoMad for verification and approval before they are added to the map.

*In ‘List View’ you can update passwords for airports already added (when you’ve noticed some changes). As you travel you can also rate the wireless hotspot information to let us know if the details worked for you or not. Based on traveler feedback, the connection information is updated, verified, or removed.

*WiFox icons indicate how fresh, reliable, and highly rated a given airport wireless network’s information is.

*WiFox is updated continuously with information travelers, pilots, and other users send through the WiFox app, foXnoMad website, and foXnoMad Facebook and Twitter accounts. WiFox currently has wireless Internet information for over 350 airports around the world.

*The map is updated automatically upon opening the app (when you have Internet access) or by clicking the ‘Update’ button on the map or refresh icon on the List View.

*WiFox also protects users on free (open) wifi networks by telling you the proper network name, so you don't unintentionally connect to a rogue or malicious access point.

Good application but database must be loaded withou help of wifi. When I start app it look for wifi in order to make update of database. What a use if I already look for wifi on airport and I do not have any access because app look for update first ????

Бесполезное, глючащее приложение. То не может обновится, то такого аэропорта нет, то есть нет паролей. Даже в Стамбуле не помогла. ) на помойку.

The print is low contrast grey and small, hard to read. Tipped off developer of contrast problem and his answer was "it's black". You need very sharp eyes to read the wifi information and it's not resizable either.

At first glance looks good. It would be nice to differentiate by colors or if you add a little number on top per airport. It was hard to see that there were more than one wifi information available due to it being same color.

This app is extremely useful for any traveler because it is a map of global wifi logins that are submitted by other travelers. To the people that are complaining that a certain airport doesn't have login information: YOU can submit the information so that others may see it in the future. That's how the app works.

I've used WiFi free of cost at 2 airports thanks to this app - what a wonderful idea! Though, at this point, several of the passwords are frequently out of date. As the community of users grows (and I'm hoping it'll do so fast), the information is sure to be updated more often. Full disclosure: I was given the app for free by the developer, but without any obligation to write a review.

The Wi-Fi passwords are only as accurate as the WiFox community makes it. Even when there's free Wi-Fi, it's good to know the official name so you don't login to a malicious WiFi network.

Lists only the free 1 hour time limited wifi for stansted. Nothing like lounge nets. There are literally 20 in range and nothing listed. Highly recommend not to burn 2 quid on this

I was in 5 different airports in the last 3 weeks and none of the passwords worked even after updating. A total waste of time.

I just traveled through 5 mayor airports (Toronto, Montreal, Rome, Venice, Paris) and I didn't used this app at all. I was able and it was easy to get free wifi from all of them without the help of any application. I know it is not much but i would like to get my money back. Thank you.

In October 11th 2016 I was in Istanbul airport. Had problems with local airport wifi, it just didnt work. As I had to stay in the airport for the night i paid for this app and downloaded it. There was more than 8 options to choose from, 5 of them I couldnt even find, and in 3 of them the passwords didnt match. I saw in the app some passwords ending with ..2015 which makes me think that passwords are very outdated and buy buying this app i wasted the money. Thats my experience from Istanbul airport :)

Most airports offer free Wi-Fi (as shown in your app). Only LHR and STN for England. No SIN or CAI really ?

If you get an incorrect location from the GPS, close and reopen. It worked after that.
