About this app

With FRITZ!App Wi-Fi you can keep an eye on your wireless network at all times. Use the FRITZ!App Wi-Fi for an easy connection from your Android smartphone or tablet to the wireless LAN of your FRITZ!Box or any other Wi-Fi router. The FRITZ!App Wi-Fi also provides you with useful details about the existing wireless connection. A graphic diagram presented in the FRITZ!App Wi-Fi offers you additional transparency about the channel assignments of the various devices in your wireless LAN environment.

Since August 2018, Google's technical guidelines allow Android apps to display information on the wireless environment only if "location" rights have been enabled for the app. FRITZ! has no influence on these Android guidelines.

Many thanks for all the encouragement and five star ratings! We are overwhelmed and extremely motivated!

Ratings and reviews

It doesn't help at all, if the repeaters cannot get connected. No help, no info, just pure frustration. And it's only working on a cellphone, no pc.

This app is to test your wi-fi and help you find a good location for any Fritz Repeaters. It's quite good in doing that and can help you find weak spots in your wifi coverage. This app will not help you setup your router and/or access your Fritz!box admin panel

I was trying to set up my Fritz!Box for almost 5 hours now and I don't even know what the problem is. I've been trying to reach the customers interface for hours and no matter what I do it won't open. Tried to get the app but still nothing works and I'm really fed up. I do have some good experiences with another Fritz!Box though. It worked absolutely smoothly and there was nothing to complain about but I really don't like the new 7590 this thing is super unreliable.
