About WiFi Status(Link Speed) Widget

WiFi Status Widget (WiFi Link Speed Monitor) provides real-time WiFi speed data and shows notifications about the WiFi status. It alerts you via the system notifications when you trap in a low-speed WiFi connection (WiFi link speed drops to a certain level) or when there is no WiFi connection (WiFi is scanning for a hotspot and wasting battery).

To get started, select this widget "WiFi Status Widget" from the Launcher --> Widget list, and then place this widget on your home screen. Tap on the widget to change the settings.

* A high resolution widget showing 3 lines of WiFi information and Two graphical indicators: the name of the access point (SSID), the link speed (the connection speed between your Android device and the wireless router), and the signal strength (aka signal quality).

* User-settable notifications when the WiFi link speed drops to a certain level or WiFi has been turned on but cannot find a connection.
* Actionable notifications: Reconnect or Turn-off WiFi from notifications - no need to open the app (require Android 4.1+).

* The widget can be resized (require Android 3.1+)
* The widget can be placed on the lock screen, take a glance at the WiFi status even before unlocking your device (require Android 4.2+)
* Widget will not update when the phone/tablet is sleeping (this is an intended behavior to save battery).

** If you have problems after installing the update to this app, try remove the widget and then add it back.

If you experience very low WiFi link speed (e.g. < 5 Mbps) with high signal strength, it is also possibly due to problems of the wireless router. A reboot on the router may help solve the issue.

What are users saying about WiFi Status(Link Speed) Widget

Your app helped me understand how Wifi link speed fluctuates radically going from 5 to 72 Mbps and yet still workings fine on 802.11n networks. On g or b networks it shows a steady 54Mbps but this is false. I tested it with my router which was showing me the real link speed. It would be nice if you could add a letter showing the protocol that we are connecting at with the Wifi access point. i.e. "b" "g" "n" "ac". Thanks again! 5 stars! I just updated to Android Lollipop 5.1 and the app doesn't work. Hope you will fix it.

Widget continues to display a connected status and indicators even after I used it to turn off the wifi. How retarded is that? Uninstalled this garbage.

Please add polling and if no data is being transmitted through wifi to send alert. Wifi connection can connect without data. Would be great to see wifi data dissconnect so we can reboot router, call Internet providers etc..

The app is great! Really accurate and does as described, the only catch was it was responsible for 33% of my battery drainage on my Droid RAZR HD.
