Works fine

Works fine. I wish uninformed people would stop leaving negative reviews for bad map data, this is maintained by the institutions, not by eduroam.

Great to find nearest eduroam hotspot

I have used many times to find and connect to the nearest eduroam hotspot.

Quick and easy!

Map content inaccurate

No idea where the data is coming from, but it’s all but useless. I’m in Oxford and the place is peppered with eduroam nodes, but most of them aren’t showing up. None of the university hospitals are listed, but they aren’t the only gaps.

Netz nicht gefunden

Haben das in der App angezeigte eduroam nicht gefunden. Nett zu sehen wo es überall Netz gibt aber leider nicht immer so wie in der App angezeigt.

Tag Me function doesn't work!

I can't enter new places where eduroam is now available... Tag Me feature is completely useless.
