I had some werid issue where my wifi was acting weird and connection was very slow on my phone, but this app seemed to have fixed whatever the problem was. I also think my speeds are faster then before as well.

In marshmallow only. I think the only thing that is missing in your app, is the ability to get full power on WiFi even when you have your phone in power saving mode. I sent you an email with full description. Many thanks for your app, I understand the efforts of the programmers and I know it's not easy. Your app have 5 stars from me, but I don't think is OK to donate if the app is not working for my proposes

My Hudl 2 Android tablet was constantly saying your internet is slow. But this was not so as other tablets laptops etc were working fast on my 50 Mbps. Installed this app, ticked "Debug" and voila the tablet now performs fast with no messages. Absolutely brilliant, much appreciated.

J70%
by J####:

After a few weeks of installing the app it seems to have fixed my phone's connection to wifi. Everytime I tried to connect my phone would reboot. Also my wifi would often get stuck and wont turn at all. A few weeks later and now no longer having the issue.

K70%
by K####:

I have this installed on a different device, all it says is the obvious, wifi off. Um yeah I know that's why I have this program, you ask for donations if you use this. Little hard to even want to donate when it does not do anything

M70%
by M####:

My wifi speed is insanely slow whenever I'm connected, however my 4G is significantly faster. I get pretty fast download speeds and upload speeds so I know it's not my internet, and this is a problem with multiple different locations. When I use this app it makes the speed quite a bit faster, however it disconnects me from my wifi about every 10 minutes or so. I can't tell what is more frustrating, having to wait 4 minutes for something to load, using my 4G all the time an risk going over my monthly limit, or having to deal with getting disconnected every 5-10 minutes.

V70%
by V####:

It seems to put some effort into 'fixing', but I really can't tell if it succeeds... And I think it may have knocked out my 5-Ghz, which APs disappeared about the time I used this. ??? [LL-5.0.1 LenovoTab2 A10-70]

Thanks! At home the tablet keeps disconnecting from WiFi. This app has helped me to keep the connection going. Works quite well even in the most difficult corner of the flat. Really helpful

I would second Max and Tim. My new Galaxy Tab A suddenly stopped allowing data through, although connected. I just let this app run, and it restored the connection.

K70%
by K####:

This app gives you lots of information pertaining to your wifi connection. It continually tries and tries again to make the connection. Plus this app has no ads which I applaud. Unfortunately, on my 5.1 Lollipop tablet, this app has only been able to help me once out of a number of attempts.

by K####:

Entirely useless, only told me if I was connected or not, something I knew myself from the fact that I couldn't connect to the Internet. DOES NOT FIX A DAMN THING!

S70%
by S####:

My mobile would stop sending and receiving with WiFi every few minutes and specifically with YouTube, and I had the same issue with my previous mobile too! I found this app and downloaded it with zero hope and now it has been a week and really all is ok! This app deserves 10 stars!

K70%
by K####:

Was great, even donated, then for past week it won't even open. Just a blue screen with failure message. No idea why, uninstalled as now totally useless.

G70%
by G####:

useless. Did not solve the problem and did not tell me what the problem was. They were great about asking for donations though, all the time!

Z70%
by Z####:

100% worthless just disables my wifi adpator and enables it over and over. When logs send to dev it says my version is out of date except this what's on the play store. Is basically malware just avoid this app

S70%
by S####:

Its Just Great Find All Issues And Try To Fix Automatically. And The Most Amazing Thing Is That Find 1 Issue Then Solve Then Try To Connect. And Go On & On... I Love It. Great Job.

by M####:

Was trying to find a solution for my phone having slow wifi in my house. Every over device was fine and running great, but my phone was really, really slow. I saw this and though "let's give it a shot" not really hoping for much. But it actually worked! I can now actually watch videos without having to wait 3 minutes for the video to load :)

by M####:

As of now this seems to have solved my problem. My Samsung tablet was defaulting to 2.4ghz and I was getting very slow speeds, and Samsung software does not allow me to choose 5ghz as default or preffered. Running this app seems to have forced my tablet onto the faster frequency, 5ghz. Speeds are now 10x what I could achieve before on 2.4ghz.

Initial installation was good. However after a few weeks, it slags.. i send a log to the developer was told to uninstall and reinstall back back. Following which, whenever i encountered wifi problem using this app. I have to uninstall and reinstall again in order for it to be able to function. If not for this problem, i would have given it a 5 star

I'd tried 3 other apps trying to connect to my wi-fi with the obtaining IP address issue. At first it was just doing the same thing over and over, but when I did the debug and told it what was wrong, BAM!! It WORKED!! Thank you! I'm going to go donate :) :) :)

"Literally all it does is show me each time my WiFi drops out for no reason. Unless "Fixer" means letting you forget a network, this app is a total lie" ........ Update: fixed my WiFi right after I posted this. I was really pissed off, but thank you for this app. Be patient, it will work

X70%

My Wi-Fi was dropping literally every few seconds. Some days were good but mostly it just kept dropping with zero warning. I installed this app and my problem stopped immediately. Thank you for this. I would have driven myself nuts googling a fix.

This app scanned & repaired the first time, for 15-20 minutes. It did work, for a day. The second go-round, it couldn't fix my problem. I did like the fact it scanned thoroughly. I'm going to buy an upgraded phone & install this app on it.

Waiting to see if the wifi issues are solved as it does not happen a lot but did notice battery usage of 11% by wifi fixer. Update. Battery usage 45% yes fourtyfive!!! Over 22hours usage. Unistalling. I might as well click flight mode on and off and gain a lot on battery live...and no reaction at all from developper on ANY of thecomments. Bad support on top so not inclined to promote or pay for this app

Latest update completely broke the app. Literally removed the ability to Connect to known networks. App does nothing anymore. LG G3, Verizon, Android Marshmallow.

It works for abit then my wifi just keeps turning off by itself on my Note 4. Then I bought a Note 7 and no problems with my wifi. Still trying to find a solution to fixing my wifi on my Note 4 though.

My wifi keeps going off before this app, now it continually keeps being fixed without interruption. I need a new box

I70%
by I####:

No perceptible increase in connection stability overall. Xperia Z2 WIFI still repeatedly drops with or without this app enabled. (As an aside, Marshmallow / 6.0.1 update seems to have triggered of wifi instability, hate to be in the anti MM 6.0.1 update camp, even after a factory reset, wifi keeps dropping even when next to access point, this didn't happen on lollipop. Same thing on a Lenovo A10-70F)

Opened the app and everything slowed to a crawl. Still couldn't connect to Wi-Fi. Had to reboot phone to fix the problem.

My WiFi repeatedly turned off and on for weeks. Verizon couldn't fix it. Must have App! Where do I donate!?

I have an LG V10 with serious wifi connectivity issues and was hoping to try this out but its crashes immediately trying to open the app. Please fix!

I brought a Chinese brand phone called JHM M8 and it has issues with the WiFi connection disconnecting and reconnecting by itself, this app actually keeps it from happening
