Ratings and reviews

Does exactly what it always has. The one stars are mostly from people that dont understand how this app, or triangulation works. It records your position and signal strength of wifi devices it sees. By moving around it takes the change in signal strength and calculates a devices likely distance. It does not magically know where every AP is. Nothing can, thats not how wifi works. Devs dont sweat the dullards, random platform issues aside(ala google), on every device ive used it works perfectly.

All I wanted is a nice tidy little list of the wifi networks within a block or so of me. I put it on airplane mode since the app doesn't stop scanning when you tell it to with the provided controls as I pulled in the driveway. Phone went in my pocket until I got inside and when I pulled it back out to look at the list .... it's gone. Try to download the local database and it says it doesn't exist. Map shows the number but not a complete list of the names. Instructions are beyond vague.

Love your app! If someone thinks they're being hacked, or have been, your app tells it all. And, mapping where the spies are targeting makes for invalable proof the spies can't deny. My hackers keep deleting your app, so an uninstall prevention setting would be nice. That should tell you that your app is a tool that makes victims into fighters for an even playing field. Thanks!
