Description
Some networks, usually WiFi, will require you to login again after short periods of inactivity.
This can be very disruptive if you are not actively using your connection, but still want to receive email or other push notifications when they arrive.
This app will periodically download a tiny file to indicate that your connection is still active.
THIS WILL NOT RECONNECT YOU TO THE NETWORK IF YOU ARE DISCONNECTED.
THIS WILL NOT HELP IF THE NETWORK TIMES YOU OUT FOR ANOTHER REASON.
Some networks have timeouts that are not based on inactivity. They could log you out at preset times, or for meeting a threshold of use. This app will not work for those cases.
Recent changes: v1.1.1 * Updating to meet requirements of newer versions of Android

Works ok. Keep my faulty Wi-Fi connection alive. Thanks

Hard to say if this app actually works or not. I experience frequent drops on my network, seemingly as a result of my VPN. That hasn't ceased since installing this app. But, this app could use a UI, with some options that can be setup. One, an option to launch the app in the background at boot, and an option to set the frequency of the keep alive signal. As it stands, this app is as bare bones as it gets. At least it doesn't have ads, is free, and doesn't require any unnecessary permissions. 👍

Does work. Verified in my home automation it sends pings. This way home automaton knows I am home. Before it would go inactive and automation software would think I am gone.

Absolutely love it. The app just takes one click... Imran there's no homepage or anything. You just click on the app icon, and it connects... And on top of all that it actually works... Best app to fix ping issue... If you are suffering from high ping, definitely us e this one.

Phone has been having trouble staying connected to any mobile network. It says "emergency calls only" and refuses to pick signal back up. Downloaded this app and started it. It said "connecting" and stopped trying after 5 seconds. Still on emergency calls only. Doesn't do what it says it does.

App does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! All it shows is an icon in the notification. Wi-Fi still cuts out
