Great app to find hackers via Bluetooth I've found quite a few hackers who have been trying to ride my coat tails via Bluetooth and have blocked them through this app😁

I love wiglenwifi this app is awesome when it works fine with your phone. I'm having problems, and I don't know it's it just me, when uploading into Kml or csv files there timestamp is 4 hrs back ? I never had these problems I download it on other phones my phone is much older, so I did it on a newer phone, and it had the same problem. Got the app from Google and f droid. It's not working any phone I had but know when it works correctly is awesome.

Excellent application for sure a 6 ⭐ asset to any war driving enthusiast, networker, pentester, or network/Wi-Fi type of programmer. It has great info and data logging capabilities for anyone interested in this area of information it also is just a neat insight into certain information in the Wi-Fi system and network overall. Very cool application that I wish more were interested in discovering!

I have been using this app for a very long time, because I experiment with microwave antennas and also need to know how much microwave interference is out there and EMF levels as well. Also, it shows that there are lots of Bluetooth devices that are active out there now there was before, and also as well as Wi-Fi routers. Also, it's a great reference source of what is going on out there. Be sure to set up your own account once you get this app set up for yourself.

All I wanted is a nice tidy little list of the Wi-Fi networks within a block or so of me. I put it on airplane mode since the app doesn't stop scanning when you tell it to with the provided controls as I pulled in the driveway. Phone went in my pocket until I got inside and when I pulled it back out to look at the list .... it's gone. Try to download the local database, and it says it doesn't exist. Map shows the number but not a complete list of the names. Instructions are beyond vague.

Tried to contribute, but they require an account, cool, simple enough, I make an account, try to verify, get "wrong password error," try to reset password, get internal server error, all the while each step makes you do a dozen or more clicks for multiple captchas for every little thing you do. You all, I wanted to help but if you make it punishingly difficult to pitch in, nobody's going to want to help out.

Click on map, no Wi-Fi hotspots. I thought that if you're in a new place you could find free Wi-Fi hotspots??

Attempted to register to contribute but the website will not let me as it rejects my legitimate email accounts, which results in the app losing certain functionality.
