*2026-07-11*

This WiFi tool works incredibly well! The layout is simple to use. It quickly scans my network, optimizes WiFi speed and finds signal dead zones easily. My internet connection becomes much smoother after using it. No lag while streaming or gaming, and it can spot strange devices stealing my WiFi too. It’s lightweight with few ads, totally worth downloading.

### 3/5 — Confused

*2026-05-17*

So this app works really good. Does everything it tells you I’ll do. The problem is, it’s a security app with advertisements that mislead people into thinking their new security app has detected a virus. Anyone without cyber smarts would definitely think this came from the app and click on it and then get malware. Super sketchy, very deceitful and misleading ads. The ads won’t even tell you what company they’re from. It just says your phone is infected. Click here to clean, or click to activate account. You think it’s part of the app but it’s not. Deceitful.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your support! We’ll keep improving WiFi Around for you!
