Though not perfect, this app has a lot of promise. They claim to have a database of over 285,000 wi-fi locations in 139 countries and you can locate sites either by using your current location, or by entering the city and country you are planning on visiting. You also have the option of searching for free wi-fi points, paid spots, or both. In more remote parts of the world, the pickings are a bit thin — Nepal, for example, only lists a total of 5 wifi locations (4 free, 1 paid). But if you’re a budget traveler, being able to locate a free wifi source in, say, Bangkok may help you decide what area to stay in or how to structure your itinerary.
We did find the interface to be a little confusing as the app quickly determined that our location was in the US and didn’t seem to offer a way to change countries. We finally figured out that all we had to do was click on the “United States” text to pull up a list of other countries — from there on, it was easy.
