Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

WiFi Auto Reconnect simply detects when your device goes offline (i.e. you lose internet connection) at which point it turns off WiFi (if not already off), then turns it on to try to reconnect to your saved WiFi network. The app can run in the background to ensure WiFi will try to reconnect itself (you'll see the notification icon that it's enabled). To help you understand where this app would be useful... WiFi Auto Reconnect was made to solve a problem with a phone dropping WiFi connections that needed to stay online and connected. Over time the device would sometimes lose internet connection over WiFi or the router would drop the device and it would not reconnect. This app ensured that the device reconnects to the WiFi network by itself without requiring manual intervention. This app was made as the existing alternative apps didn't keep running in the background (this one is also cleaner to look at). You will need to ensure that the WiFi network is saved and the option to connect automatically has been checked.

WiFi Auto Reconnect APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the WiFi Auto Reconnect APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Unknown. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is b41774fa56a2fae3f27d9d132d3cf9eb.
