About WifiBatt
**** PLEASE NOTE, the service runs in the notification area showing WifiBatt, I have had some complaints about this people do not like to loose a space in their Notification area, Due to time restraints and Phones having this capability integrated I will no longer support future releases of the app but continue to support current users. Thank you. ***********
With WifiBatt you no longer have to go into your mobile device's settings to turn your wireless on and off.
WifiBatt allows you the set parameters to determine when and for how long the WiFi should be in use, hence significantly improving the battery life of your mobile device. Although most Android devices come with a battery saver, there are still some aspects over which you have no control. WifiBatt literally turns off the WiFi when your device is not in use, which consequently helps save your battery life. Give it a try, your battery will thank you!
Features:
- Saves 10 - 15 % battery life by turning off your wireless connection
- Turns off wireless after a minute if not connected successfully
- With a user specified time, WifiBatt turns your wireless connection off when screen is off and back on when the screen is in use.
- Ability to start service upon startup
- Memory consumption less than 4 MB
- Size on disk less than 65 KB
How to Use:
1) Connect to your favorite wireless hotspot (Ex: MyHome)
2) Open WifiBatt
3) Start the service
4) Thats all the service will automatically run in the background turning on your wireless when the screen is on (process may take 5 - 20 seconds) and turning off the wireless (depending on your choice)
Please report any problems you may be experiencing.
