FAQ:
❓Why are there advertisements in the app?
We at WiFi Warden recognize that advertisements may not always be welcome, yet they are essential in providing our app at no cost to countless users globally. You can always remove the ads by upgrading to the Ads-Free version inside the app.

❓Can I use WiFi Warden to hack WiFi hotspots?
No, the WiFi Warden app does not serve as a hacking instrument. It is designed to display details about both public and private WiFi hotspots, information that is contributed by our user community.

No Root? No Problem!

While most features are accessible without root, specific functionalities like WPS connection on Android 9+ and serial number access do require root permissions.

Good to Know:

🔷WiFi Warden champions ethical use. It's a tool for exploration and education, not hacking.
🔷Initial connection in a new region requires internet.
🔷WPS functionality might vary by router.
🔷Location permission is necessary from Android 6 onwards.
🔷VPNService is needed for DNS over HTTPS. Traditional DNS queries are sent over plain text, making them vulnerable to interception and manipulation. With DNS manipulation, attackers can redirect you to fake or malicious websites without you even knowing. By implementing DoH, DNS queries are sent over a secure HTTPS connection, preventing this kind of manipulation. Using VPNService, WiFi Warden ensures that your DNS queries are securely tunneled, thus giving you more privacy and preventing DNS-based attacks.
🔷Starting with Android 11, viewing the MAC addresses of devices connected to your WiFi has been restricted due to Google policies.
🔷Discover more about your Wi-Fi environment and unlock the full potential of internet connectivity with WiFi Warden. Join our community and embark on a journey to free, secure, and fast internet access!

HELL NO to rooting my phone. When I first opened the app, it immediately tells me that bc of Android 9, you can no longer manually scan or change channels. It does it on its own every 30 seconds. That's a potential battery drain. And to use another feature, I have to root my phone??? I thought we were past that. Why hasn't the app been optimized to work with Android 9???

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We understand your frustration with the limitations imposed by Android 9 and beyond. These are part of Android's system-wide policies to enhance security and battery efficiency, which we, as developers, must adhere to, and unfortunately, they are beyond our control.

Ads are intrusive and are placed/timed in such a way that you're almost guaranteed to tap on one or two anytime you use this. Tried several times to pay for this but the REMOVE ADS process doesn't do anything. Wrote to developer saying I was trying to give them some money and got silence in return. I have a rooted phone and the features mostly work, but the ads seriously get in the way.

Not what I needed... I didn't have phone service and needed a way to find wifi and possibly see shared passwords (or crack some, if they were public but locked.) Nothing worked unless I was already connected, which defeated the purpose. I tried using the app again after getting service back, and it was still pretty useless. All it's been good for is showing wifi nearby, which my phone does already. It doesn't help me really find, or connect to anything, and I'm not rooting my phone.
