Wardrive Go turns your phone into a serious wardriving rig. Drive, walk, bike, or Onewheel and it passively logs every Wi-Fi access point, Bluetooth/BLE device, and cell tower it hears — each geotagged with a precise GNSS fix — then plots them live and uploads to WiGLE and WDGWars in one tap. No root required.
WHAT IT DOES
• Passive scanning of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth LE, and cell towers at once
• Multi-constellation GNSS (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS)
• Live map with a coverage view and your driving trail
• One-tap upload to WiGLE and WDGWars — plus in-app leaderboards, stats, and upload history
• Field report: totals, per-maker breakdown, and every device you've logged
UPLOAD TO WIGLE + WDGWARS (ONE TAP)
The Upload button sends your run to both databases at once:
• WiGLE — the global archive of wardriven Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cell networks
• WDGWars (wdgwars.pl) — the interactive-map wardriving layer for LOCOSP's cyberpunk RPG Watch Dogs Go; your networks power your in-game character
Each service is tracked separately, so a network sent to one still counts as new for the other. A My Uploads screen shows every upload's status and credited counts.
EXTERNAL USB ADAPTERS
Plug a supported USB adapter in over OTG — more range and detail, no drivers, no root — all merged into the same radar, map, and field report.
Monitor-mode (true 802.11 — access points plus hidden client stations):
• Atheros AR9271 — Alfa AWUS036NHA (2.4)
• Ralink RT3070 / RT5370 — TurboTenna Yagi (2.4)
• MediaTek MT7612U — Alfa AWUS036ACM (2.4/5)
• Realtek RTL8821AU — Alfa AWUS036ACS (2.4/5)
• Realtek RTL8812AU — Alfa AWUS036ACH (2.4/5)
• Realtek RTL8814AU — Alfa AWUS1900 (2.4/5)
ESP32 boards over USB serial:
• ESP32 Marauder (JustCallMeKoko) — you pick the channels it sweeps; dual-band on C5
• AWOK Dual C5 Touch — dual ESP32-C5, touchscreen + GPS
• Ghost ESP (Poltergeist, GhostESP Revival) and Cerberus — the board scans, the app reads the results
Dual-band channel hopping, distant-AP capture, adjustable dwell, per-adapter settings.
SDR (RTL-SDR + HACKRF)
Plug in an RTL-SDR or HackRF over USB for a live waterfall, FM/AM, and ADS-B aircraft tracking — aircraft you hear are geotagged and ride the same one-tap upload to WDGWars.
SPOT WHAT'S WATCHING YOU
Wardrive Go names the notable devices around you:
• Surveillance cameras (Flock Safety, ALPR, body/action cams)
• Drones (DJI and others)
• Trackers (Apple Find My/AirTag, Google Find My, Samsung SmartTag, Tile, Chipolo, Globalstar)
• Vehicle immobilizers (KARR)
• Attack hardware (Flipper Zero, RF tools, and more)
Live Offensive Devices panel (Threat Scope), threat-lane colors, tappable markers, and a layer filter. A "Following Me" view flags devices that co-travel with you across places; mark your own excluded and they drop off.
TOOLS
• Radar and device locator
• Spectrum and channel analyzer (2.4 / 5 / 6 GHz)
• Security Mix — a live Wi-Fi encryption breakdown
• Antenna Check — a relative RX signal meter to aim and compare antennas
• Aurora — a vivid visualization of nearby networks and how they relate
PRIVACY FIRST
Your data is yours. Exclusion zones, a per-device blacklist, and "_nomap" strip anything excluded from every upload and hide it on the map. Automatic backups to a folder you choose (and optionally your own sync URL).
HOME-SCREEN & WEAR
• Home-screen and Galaxy Flip cover widgets (live stats, offensive count/list, dashboard)
• Wear OS companion mirrors your live session stats on your wrist, with buzz-on-spot alerts
• Wear OS Tile — live stats from your watch's Tile carousel
• Wear OS watch face complication — your live network count on your watch face
• Multiple color themes and skins
PERMISSIONS
Location is required by Android for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth scanning and to geotag your finds. Wardrive Go scans passively and never transmits on your behalf.
Have fun wardriving! -RocketGod
Recent changes:
• Steadier Wi‑Fi capture — the app now rides out brief USB adapter hiccups instead of dropping the stream.
• Snappier maps and a faster captures list.
• Reliability and memory improvements, plus fixes for some rare crashes.
