### 2/5 — Doesn’t do what I thought it would

*2024-06-25*

I think I bought it in error.  I wanted an app to map WiFi strength in my house.  Also there are two apps in the App Store called WiFiman. Disappointing

**Developer response:** We like to help with your issue. Please email support@xvision.me. FYI our WifiMan app has been on the App Store since 2010. It's the only app that automatically tracks your Wi-Fi data usage by SSID, so you can easily get real-time usage statistics for all your Wi-Fi networks.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your support 😍

### 4/5 — Smart , but not enough

*2022-08-07*

First thing first, this is THE ONLY IOS APP that considers that one might want to monitor a specific Wi-Fi SSID’s consumption, which is a huge plus because ALL other monitors, paid or not, will just mishmash all Wi-Fi data.
Why 4 stars and not 5, this app relies SOLELY on location services to determine what SSID you are using,(for some odd reason), you HAVE to have it enabled, no way to have a widget constantly monitoring a specific Wi-Fi SSID, if I’m connected to it or not, my home Wi-Fi for instance, I don’t care much to know about it’s consumption, my mobile LTE router on the other which serves my phone through Wi-Fi, is critical and neither it nor my ISP have iOS 14 style widgets to monitor my usage.
That said, I like the app and using it

**Developer response:** Thanks for your support. Location services permission is required by iOS to allow WifiMan to know your current SSID. As for your widget suggestion, we're always working to improve our apps and we'll look into your feature request. If you need further help, please email support@xvision.me.

### 5/5 — Works well! Great support!

Shows how much data my phone is sending to the shown network. I would like to see it updated in the foreground but otherwise works well.

### 5/5 — Works silently in the background

*2021-04-27*

This has taught me how much data I really use. This app is perfect if you rent wi-fi data by the Gigabyte to know how much your device is using. 

Mobile gaming on your device can cause you an impressive data bill for mobile data if you purchase by the Gigabyte. 

This will keep track of how much data you use on the Wi-Fi networks each month that you connect it to. From kilobytes to gigabytes this app tracks all data traffic to show how much data your device uses. My total traffic on my home Wi-Fi was more than 6x more than my mobile data allowance cap for high speed data. I hadn't had an idea that I went through that much data at home. 
Keep up the great work. This app is great for tracking which device is the offender for those with limited Wi-Fi to figure out who is using more than their share of the family Wi-Fi data. 

I recommend this to anyone who has a hotspot that they use for internet and wants to track their data without having to have a cellular data tracker for an iPod touch or deactivated iPhone or iPad without a mobile data service antenna in it.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your love and support!!! 😍

### 1/5 — Works for a few seconds then stops recording

*2021-02-01*

Only works for a few seconds at a time when you connect to a network, then stops recording usage. If you install multiple wifi addresses, you’ll notice almost no usage through them.  Absolutely no help and not worth the $3.00 I paid.

**Developer response:** We like to help with your issue. This may happen if background app refresh is not active on your phone. Please email support@xvision.me. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Scam!!!!

*2026-02-03*

Do not buy!!! Paid $6 and does literally nothing it says!

**Developer response:** Did you enable Precise Location Services for WifiMan? This is required for SSID tracking. We like to help with your issue. Please email support@xvision.me. Thanks.

### 1/5 — 流量表示

*2025-03-09*

为什么显示流量数据时，超过1024MB后，不用GB来表示呢？

**Developer response:** We like to help with your issue. The unit will auto change to GB once your usage grows. You can see that in the sample app screenshots. Please email support@xvision.me if you need further support. Thanks.

### 1/5 — 假的Wi-Fiman

*2024-07-26*

冒名顶替的Wi-Fiman 还要38兼职可耻

It's the only app that automatically tracks your Wi-Fi data usage by SSID, so you can easily get real-time usage statistics for all your Wi-Fi networks.

### 1/5 — App does not recognize that phone is connected

*2024-06-26, version 17.2*

Asked for refund

### 1/5 — Widget

*2023-08-11*

You guys took a way the widget. I have to check in the app every time.

**Developer response:** FYI the widget is back ;) Thanks for your support.

### 1/5 — 假的wifiman

### 1/5 — Gimmick

*2023-02-21*

Love the simplicity: One empty screen that says that known wifi networks will be added automatically. And that’s it.

**Developer response:** We like to help with your issue. Please email support@xvision.me. Thanks. Please enable Precise Location Services. This is required by iOS to obtain your network name in WifiMan.

### 1/5 — 注意这是假的WiFiman

*2022-07-15*

由于真正的WiFiman没有在中国大陆区上架，冒用WiFiman的名字，导致我上当受骗花了冤枉钱，也不能退款，太可耻了

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2022-07-13*

Stopped logging traffic after 2 days of purchase

**Developer response:** We like to help with your issue. This may happen if background app refresh is not active on your phone. Please email support@xvision.me. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Terrible “app” if that’s what you wanna call it

*2021-07-24*

Opens to a blank page with an icon leading you to settings that offered nothing to do with the description of this app. I’m requesting a refund. No wonder there’s no trial period. You knew no one will pay for this after trying it.

**Developer response:** We like to help with your issue. Please email support@xvision.me. Thanks. Did you enable Location Services so WifiMan can get your network name?

Its tracks each network you connect too and saves its data or you can clear your data usage and start over you can also track on a map where the WiFi is at. I’ve been using for years now never had a problem.

Good product! WifiMan can show different WiFi ssid and calculate each WiFi ssid internet traffic
