Can't say for sure if its this app but my Kyocera Hydro keeps turning off or I keep finding it completely shutdown since I installed this app. Odd, but this app must be the cause...uninstalling.

Cannot find location ... s7 w/v6.0.1

App does what it should. Only thing morr it could do is have an option to NOT auto turn on wifi, and still auto deacivate when out of range.

N70%
by N####:

Does the job brilliantly, very little delay between turning on/off (couple of mins max if set right). Actually saves the battery very well Desire 2.3

Works sometimes on motorola razr.

This app used to locate my WiFi using my IP only. GPS is mandated for setup initially. Many people seem to not realize this and thus they write "keeps spinning, searching for location". I'm not clear whether GPS is required once you've added your network. If it does, it's a dealbreaker. I'm on the 3rd floor of a 12-story apt & GPS does not penetrate. It's a battery drain. I'm sick of Google data mining via location stalking. S4 I9500 factory unlocked ,8-core processor (rooted) s4 blows away the S6.

Works great. Wifi on when in range of house, off when not.

E70%
by E####:

Works exactly as advertised. Like it a lot. Sometimes I want to use tethering on my phone for my Nexus 7 (no mobile networking), but unless I'm in range of a defined wifi network, it turns my wifi off killing my tether. An option to override its default behavior would be welcome.

Would recommend highly especially for android noob needing help getting better battery life.

This is just what I wanted but not sure if uses GPS. But so far works flawlessly. Does not seem to drain battery.

U70%
by U####:

simple, works fine, no issues. dont know if battery life is conserved or not. but it does what it says: auto wifi on / off.

S70%
by S####:

Any way to add some more intervals for when it checks like 2 or 3 hours? Or to have it turn on/off at specific times? That would be great!

U70%
by U####:

Great idea, nice & simple itfc, but doesn't recover from sleep: wifi stays off, even after manual toggle (Nexus S)

C70%
by C####:

Like Verizon's version of this app, it doesn't work!! It doesn't always turn on my wifi and it never turns it off. I think this app probably needs GPS turned on to work properly. If i'm using an app like this, it's for one of two reasons: First, i want to save my data usage; or second, i want to save my battery life. If that's the goal, then why would i want my GPS turning on and off all the time to check it's location??? This is just as much of a waste of battery life as leaving the wifi on.... Droid4

Disappointing... doesn't turn off wifi when it should.

I like the app functionality but it causes my phone screen to loose touch interaction at the lock screen. I have verified this. I had no freezes while I had app uninstalled. Then I installed this app again and the freeze-ups reappeared.

In beginning it worked good, but after the android update to 4.0 I have some issues with wifi: it goes on and off for no reason

Turns the WiFi right back on and leaves it. If you turn it off it turns it back on again when away from WiFi networks.

I've loved this app for its effectiveness and simplicity, but it stopped toggling my wi-fi recently. I now get a persistent "'Waiting for location" message when I try to add a location too. Please fix!

This thing works every time. Set it once and forget it, exactly the way it should work.

After many years of reliable service , it stopped working when I purchased the galaxy s4, prompting me to leave a negative review. I am happy to announce that they listen to their customers and they have resolved this issue and I'm extremely happy to have it back as it has been one of the most reliable apps for many years. Kudos, William J McDonald.

This app has always been stellar in the past, but since moving offices I have been trying to add my new WiFi location and it will never find my location, even though I turn on my GPS and my maps know exactly where I am. Kinda a bummer that you can't manually add the location either, since it means that the majority of the time I would like to use WiFi on my phone to conserve data is when I'm at work, and I have to do it manually now. Which isn't so bad, but that's what the app is supposed to be for.

I haven't found another app that turns on/off WiFi based on geographical location. I like it a lot, but some suggestions to make it even better: 1) Option for WiFi scanning only when screen on would save even more battery (ie. no scanning while screen off but still turn off WiFi if no connection after threshold time reached); 2) Option for no automatic WiFi turn on after it has been manually turned off by user. This would allow to control battery drain when WiFi connection is temporarily undesirable even when at a saved location; 3) A quick Enable/Disable toggle on main screen; 4) Option to edit entries (currently just Delete is available); 5) Need explanation on the Accuracy setting (bigger or lower is better? how does it work? can it be set manually?)
