WiFi Toolbox 2.0.114.4025

Connect to WiFi hotspots safer and faster using this neat application
One of the best things about having a smartphone is that you can connect to the internet from wherever you are. Unfortunately, not all WiFi networks are secure and you'll need to keep your phone protected from malware that can be distributed on networks.

Fortunately, Google Play Store comes with lots of apps that can help you with that. One of them is WiFi Toolbox. It's a nice app that tells you if a network is secure and it monitors your connection.

Sleek interface with plenty of features at hand

The app launches with a presentation of its features, showing users all the neat things that they can do inside. It doesn't use material design and the app doesn't have a side menu with access to sections, but it sports a really intuitive layout with lots of interesting tools.

The interface is really stylish, it uses animation and it has everything you need at hand. Fortunately, the app doesn't need any setup and it automatically finds the network that you're connected to. It comes with notifications and controls in the status bar so you can access the app faster.

Connect to WiFi spots faster

The app monitors your WiFi connection on the home screen and it uses animation to show you how strong it is. It displays signal intensity and there's even an optimize icon that you can use.

It calibrates and enhances your wireless module so that the signal intensity would increase and it displays how much it did. You can also check out free and open WiFi spots. It displays a whole list of available WiFi networks and it shows you the signal strength.

More options and tools

The app can be used for saving battery on your phone. You can set the WiFi to automatically close during certain hours of the day or when the phone is in standby. You can also have the app turn off WiFi when there are no available networks nearby.

In order to save mobile data, the app can be set to turn off 2/3/4G when turning off WiFi. The controls in the status bar show users the signal strength and it comes with the option of performing a speed test.

You can activate a floating icon and set a WiFi blacklist, so you wouldn't connect to networks with malware. The speed test results show users a comparison of their signal strength to that of other networks from around the world. You can share your results online or attach them to an email.
