osmino Wi-Fi 5.27.05
Sleek and easy-to-use interface
The UI is truly intuitive, but before you start using the app make sure to check out the tutorial that contains all sort of tips and instructions to make it easier for you to get accustomed with this app.
The interface is also highly customizable, it lets you add apps for quick launch and remove them the same way you do from your device home screen. The left side menu offers access to all major sections and to widgets for your home screen.
Find networks near you
All you need to do to start searching for networks is to tap on the large icon on the screen. You will be automatically connected to public networks if there are any hotspots in range. If you can't find a network, check the nearest hotspots on the WiFi map. It also displays the distance and direction towards them.
However, it may seem crowded with icons, but not all are the same. Green ones denote public networks, orange ones are sign-in required and gray marked ones are networks with unverified access. The app also displays a number of multiple hotspots found in the area and if you don't know which you should pick to connect, check out user reviews.
Augmented reality for finding hotspots
The app uses augmented reality to locate hotspots near your location and the connection is done automatically, when you approach a public hotspot. Tap on the icon to get further details and user reviews about the network.
In addition, you can get information in offline mode if you download the hotspot data on control panel. You also have the option of sharing a network or checking the connection speed with a simple test. Users also have the option of searching for a network by typing in its name.
