It opens and that's it! ### 1/5 — Does nothing at all *2016-07-02, version 1.0.1* Does nothing and very suspicious, should be taken down. ### 1/5 — Useless *2016-05-25, version 1.0.1* Not only does the app not work, the error message that came up is so incoherent that I don't even know what it is telling me to do. ### 1/5 — Should be renamed. unistalled *2016-05-14, version 1.0.1* Should be renamed. unistalled ### 1/5 — Suspicious *2016-04-20, version 1.0.1* How this app got past the Apple sensors beyond me. The app does absolutely nothing and it looks extremely suspicious. Apple needs to take this out of the store. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2015-12-28, version 1.0.1* It does not do anything. It does not extend the wifi as the name says. Looks suspicious. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unusable. Needs visual instructions. *2024-07-06, version 1.0.1* Spinning wheel, spinning wheel, spinning wheel, then this nonsense message pops up: “Please check the system Wi-Fi connect to Wi-Fi-Extend or not. If you do not find Wi-Fi-Extend that already set to Repeter [their spelling] mode. Please press reset button then re-setting Wi-Fi extender.” Mkay. WAT? There is nothing showing but a blank box with a brief Wi-Fi symbol in the middle. Which immediately goes into the spinning wheel when the app opens. Then it stops with that completely incompressible pop-up message that doesn’t explain anything. After you close the pop-up, it immediately goes back to the spinning wheel. Rinse and repeat. There is no user interface. There are NO buttons. You should have visual instructions, with an interface and working controls to show people where the reset button is and how to check if it is in “Repeter” mode if you cannot speak English, or any other language for that matter. Make it universal by showing, not telling. It’s too bad because we really need an app like this for iPhone. ### 1/5 — BRinging it back *2022-10-19, version 1.0.1* They think we are all tech people. Instructions are no help. Will return and look for one that is easier and more helpful. ### 1/5 — P0S *2022-01-01, version 1.0.1* 1.requires an app to config. 2. Does not allow main WiFi router to use security wpa wpa2 nor Wep 3. This here app doesn’t fire up then a phone pop up screen issues an indecipherable error message. Not a good product! Return it. ### 1/5 — Waste *2020-04-21, version 1.0.1* Don’t waste time in downloading this app. It does not extend WiFi. ### 1/5 — Hopeless *2020-03-01* Can’t find WIFi right next to full strength device output. No settings menu options. No instructions. #fail ### 1/5 — Does absolutely NOTHING other than display error message!???? *2019-10-28, version 1.0.1* Does absolutely NOTHING other than display error message!???? ### 1/5 — Trash *2018-12-10, version 1.0.1* Don’t buy! ### 1/5 — Constant error message *2018-08-04, version 1.0.1* Just errors... worthless ### 1/5 — Hello *2018-02-20, version 1.0.1* I know this is a little late but can you bring this app back to life for ios 11 ### 1/5 — Don't download *2017-09-03* Unless you want all of your personal information stolen. :) ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Help for when app don’t work *2019-12-12, version 1.0.1* I’m pretty sure you have to buy a WiFi extender from the store and this app will help you find it, connect it, and set it up ### 5/5 — Wow *2016-04-29, version 1.0.1* This really helped me and I enjoy it and it works really well ### 2/5 — I don’t understand what it is saying to me *2017-12-10, version 1.0.1* It started searching for my WiFi router then it gave me a message that I do not understand and it said “please check the system to WiFi connect or WiFi extend or not. If you do not find WiFi extend that already set to repeater mode. Please press reset button then resetting WiFi extender.” So I don’t understand whatever that said ### 2/5 — App needs work *2017-09-19, version 1.0.1* App not working correctly. App needs to have setting button to be able to manage, keeps on repeating something about repeater mode that needs to be changed in settings but there is no settings. Please fix as this is the only app for extending the signal. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
