About this app

With FRITZ!App WLAN you can keep an eye on your wireless network at all times. Use the FRITZ!App WLAN for an easy connection from your Android smartphone or tablet to the wireless LAN of your FRITZ!Box or any other WLAN router. The FRITZ!App WLAN also provides you with useful details about the existing wireless connection. A graphic diagram presented in the FRITZ!App WLAN 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. AVM has no influence on these Android guidelines.

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

My phone is literally connected to a Fritzbox WiFi and the app just refuses to recognize that I have a WiFi connection already established... Such a primitive failed app

We regret the missing/incorrect display and would like to take a look at why the FRITZ!App WLAN does not display the information that could be displayed and offer possible solutions. To do this, please use “Give feedback” in the app menu to send the string #appfid 5954041 as well as the support data and the app’s log.

AVM is really top designers about routers and same devices' FW, but I am sorry to say that this is the second app which I am forced to define "elementary" and almost useless. A caothic container of connection's info which can be easily retrived browsing android settings pages. Every tap, this app asks for location access and other info permissions. Immediately removed.

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.
