Facebook "Find Wi-Fi" Is Beginning To Roll Out Globally On iOS And Android
Jul 1, 2017 Add Comment
Facebook is growing its business with a newer feature that is designed to help smartphone users to discover available Wi-Fi systems in the surroundings.
The organization had started testing a "Find Wi-Fi" feature a year ago on versatile, which is shows all the free or open Wi-Fi networks that are adjacent. At the time, the feature was just accessible on iOS in select nations, as something of a test. Today, Facebook reported that all the smartphone users around the world will soon get access to Find Wi-Fi feature on both iOS and Android versions.
The feature would be helpful for the travelers around the world to find the things around or nearby for free. In developed markets like the U.S., that could mean more remote, rural locations, but in emerging markets, it’s an even more powerful tool as users often have limited data plans, and spotty cellular coverage in general.
The feature is found under the “More” tab in the Facebook mobile app. Once you locate the “Find Wi-Fi” tab, Facebook notes you may need to turn it on. Afterwards, Facebook will display a map showing the closest hotspots around you, as well as details about the businesses that provide them.
Facebook’s bottom line
The tool also serves as another way to discover local businesses. That means users might start turning to Facebook to find the closest coffee shop with Wi-Fi, instead of Google Maps.But the feature isn’t available as of yet as reliable as it should be.
