Join the world's largest Wi-Fi community!
Save on roaming when travelling by going to free hotspots in every major city in the world.
Smaller towns and rural areas have less data. Use the app and help fill the maps! Maps refreshed weekly, but we're moving to daily. All the data is crowdsourced from users of WifiMapper and OpenSignal.
Find nearby Wi-Fi hotspots and save on data. WifiMapper can tell you what kind of venue it is and even if they have good coffee - and you can share your comments!
What we’re working on (a sneak peek into the future! NOTE: these features are not currently in the app)
These are the features we’re building now so get ready for:
★ Password sharing (not yet in app!) - a way of sharing passwords securely, get access to password protected hotspots without having to type. For the moment you can share passwords to public free wifi in the comments
★ Full offline maps for cities, for now the app caches recently viewed hotspots so you can look for wifi, turn off data and still be able to see the hotspots you found
★ Leaderboards to brag about how many Wifi points you have discovered, you can’t see this information yet but the edits and comments you make now will count to the totals. Get contributing!
★ Tell us what else you'd like.
Use WifiMapper to avoid expensive roaming and data usage charges or slow internet at home. Getting free Wi-Fi has never been so easy!
WifiMapper maps the best free hotspots nearby (from restaurants to libraries to coffee shops and cafes). The details page gives you relevant information on the hotspot and its location in addition to comments from the community. The list of the hotspots presented is based on our own recommendation algorithms - so we need your patience and collaboration to correct the status of Wi-Fi networks when you see errors! Every correction you make improves WifiMapper for everyone!
A special thanks to all of our 3000 beta testers. You’re all awesome, keep the feedback coming because WifiMapper couldn’t be where it is today without you.
WifiMapper can show you the best hotspots in any major city around the world, great for saving on roaming fees and keeping costs down when you travel. We also spend a lot of time working in Cafes and so we built WifiMapper to help find new cool spots with Wi-Fi in your local area, not just abroad! Share your photos with no worry about data charges using WifiMapper to have access to free Wifi anywhere you go, all visible on a local map.
