This is a bit of an odd one,

I have just moved to another country where internet is very expensive, and i would like to have an app to create a shared list of Wifi creds where i find them, whether that is offices, hotels or cafes, etc.

It would kind of be like the OpenWifi Map, but maybe a bit more private?

Does anyone know of anything like this? it would be able to tell where you are and alert you or autoconnet to the wifi using the credentials that are stored.

The reason i want it to be shared is that my wife can use the ones that i find and vice-versa.

cheers

      Uggh… Lol.

      Tasker is probably the most capable, but has a significant learning curve.

      Automate and Macrodroid are easier to learn, but more limited.

      Maybe start with Macrodroid, get your feet wet. It’s easy enough that my simple macros wouldn’t help - MD walks you through creating a macro.

        I have got recording ssid’s when I connect, but not the password.

        It also doesn’t check whether it exists in the list, not sure how to do that yet. I think I need pro to use lists and dictionaries
