Wi fi app

Why does ATT continue to offer this if it is useless? Both the international day pass and the passport plans require thus app be on your phone - any suggestions readers?


Terrible App, will disrupt your phone hardware and software

Faraz

Terrible app. Do not use! It will hose your phone and make it unusable and then you have to revert and delete the app. Just terrible.


Doesn't work at all.

j3ansley

Same as everyone else. I've tried it for about six months. I tried loading it but it would always fail because I didn't delete the old profile. Never figured out how to delete any profile. I'm not even tech stupid. It is a very poorly designed app.


This app is worse than worthless

So someone

It will give you a false sense of security that you will actually have wifi somewhere along your travels. For example, you will not actually be able to find wifi in three cities in South Africa outside of your hotel, and in that case you may end up paying for it or constantly requesting access from the front desk because it expires after 500mb. I contacted at&t hoping they would reduce the fees I paid for my international plan. Nope.


There are NO AT&T hotspots!

Frodsnol

There are absolutely NO AT&T Wi-Fi hotspots in Mumbai, Bopal, or Dehradun India. THERE ARE MANY FREE PUBLIC HOTSPOTS in all three of those cities however! So why would I want to use this app?? I would advise you to FIX it!


Farting app for $1 is more useful

If I could get a 2 year old to come up with functions for an app, it would be more useful than this app. Great show me a map. I can't even verify if the hotspots identified are legitimate, since the app doesn't let you make the connection.


What’s the point?

I was in two counties (Iceland & France) that at&t has service in through this system. It auto connected to the allowed hotspots but it never authenticated. The only way to surf was to use my data. By turning off Wi-Fi.


Not worth the bother

Dcurtis19

In a panic while stuck at the airport I tried to use att international plan and this app. Nothing worked!!! Not a Wi-Fi location in an international airport? Att is as bad as the airline, United that cancelled our flight. Hot spot locations show up on a map without any locations just flags. That is not useful. It was easier and more reliable to just go buy a meal at a restaurant and a better value. This just wastes your time with the false hope of getting Wi-Fi. Additionally, the international plan gives you access to you own data for $10/day. Well that is nice to pay to use your own data plan. :(


Can’t zoom in maps

marchetype

App shows all the Wi-Fi locations that have a partnership with AT&T Wireless allowing you to connect using your AT&T account credentials. It also lists a limited number of public Wi-Fi hotspots. The main problem however is that while many locations are shown on a large-scale map, they all disappear as you zoom in to try to locate one near you. That makes the app pretty much useless in practice. Fix this, AT&T!


Why cannot you just have data?

圣雄_Eric

I have no idea why you set hotspot in the world wiled. It is super inconvenient!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want to travel and enjoy my trip in a street or in a bus, but not stay in one place to access WiFi. Please see T-mobile. They just do some cooperate with foreign communication company and let local company share data to help their customers to even access unlimited LTE data in a foreign country. We always need to use map in a foreign country. Now you want to me stay in one place and load map and then let me know “hi buddy, go and find out next available hotspot to have your charged WiFi”. Come on!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding me? Please let me know why you can charge us so much on an international plan and then even do not allow us to use data. You are the largest communication company in America. I am sorry that I cannot see that large part.......
