1.6.0 Disabling app bug fixed

Light and fast app which turns Wifi off when no known network is around and turns it on in locations where you were already connected before.

The app remembers the locations automatically. All you have to do is to turn the Wifi radio on at each new Wifi spot.

This app does seem to do what it says. It took a couple of home network switches on and off to get it register. Wifi now turns on when I get home, off when I leave. Great for use with Groove IP that gives you inbound and outbound calls on wifi (and 3G), when you have no cell service at home.

Works great on my Evo w/Froyo.....if there were an option to have it shut off/shut off wifi during certain hours (e.g. at night when sleeping), it'd be perfect.

It would be nice if I could actually turn off wifi on demand even if this is running, but this keeps turning it back on.

good for some It remembers locations where you've enabled Wifi, and automatically disables WiFi once you get a few miles away... and that's the problem, for me: The places I go are mostly within a couple miles of home, so Y5 rarely kicks in. It's not a flaw in the Y5 app, just a limitation of the Android "location" feature.

It was good when I first installed it At first, it worked marvelous.. Whenever I'm in 2 or 3 cells near a wifi, it would reconnect instantly but now it shows up 8 cells, and when I'm away from my home about 3 or 4 miles away, wifi starts searching for signal which I believe eats up battery. Honestly, I have no used for it anymore because I've created a widget that can toggle on and off wifi whenever I need it which to me is alot more stable. Nevetheless, very great app.. The app should only maintain in the 2 or 3 cell range, and also when I'm testing my mobile network at home, it should let me in my mobile network instantly instead of open up y5 and disabling it..
