### 5/5 — Helpful app

*2025-10-01*

Really helpful when you're out and about. Found wifi at the hospital when I was visiting someone and the signal was terrible. Small things like that make a big difference.

### 5/5 — Simple but effective

*2025-10-01*

Sometimes the best apps are the simple ones. This does one thing and does it really well. No unnecessary features or cọmplications.

**Developer response:** Thanks Laurena, we are trying to make access to the internet as frictionless as it can be to drive digital inclusion so it is good to hear the simplicity is coming through
