Like many apps, this one had it's share of ups and downs especially with receiving and keeping a signal. But the connectivity and maintaining the signal has definitely improved and I think with the fast moving technology advances this app will only continue to get better. Worth checking out for sure...👀🌐

I needed access to WiFi. I have a phone with hotspot but it's a pain since it doesn't work very well. Like everyone else I'm busy as you can be. This app helped me to stay online to complete things I couldn't get done with my other phone. 5 Stars! I am able to get things done. The paid services in my area are not very good and expensive for what you get (not always available either!). I don't have to search as much for WiFi.

It's good for seeing networks around you with an estimated time to walk or drive to the network you wanna connect to you choose! So as far as I see it this app is extremely informative and I'm happy to have found it! Check it out! I think you will agree! Oh yeah it does lead you to open networks that comes in handy saves you time and it's worth the download!

I like that App (not quite Love). Why, because it works. A lot of times you download these Hotspot Apps, you turn them on and nothing happens, or the passwords are incorrect. This App is sometimes unreliable only because the information is sometimes incorrect. Ofwhich you can quickly remedy, especially if you have data, or limited data by going into the app itself and updating the information. There are tsp-ons for that :). You can aslo send emails to update info. I recommend this App!

Sometimes works. However, alot of the nearby Wi-Fi's, they always state that they 'rarely' are successful in connecting... Could be better, and with time and more downloads and participation, I'm sure it will be. But currently, all-in-all,... I'd say it's alittle above average in functionality and performance. Thanx again...

I'm not sure if it's because of my phone (Moto G6) but, this app doesn't work for me at all. It only shows my home wifi, so whenever I go out somewhere and I'm trying to find wifi connections nearby, it doesn't show any that are actually near me at all. There's also an option to scan for wifi connections but it never works, it just says there's none near me. This app was a waste of time and storage.

Wifi portion never works, ever aspect of it is inaccurate. The app itself is extremely invasive; installs all types of widgets and changes the layout of your phone's apps and app drawer. And I still can't uninstall it. And ads are built into the app itself since they run even without internet connection. Stay away at all costs. Update: After everything and getting nowhere, I was finally able to uninstall this adware, you have to uninstall through the Google play store; any other will not work.

First off, if you're not a fan of ads, don't download. All this app basically does is act as a VPN, internet browser, and WiFi finder all in one, however if you want this to actually work well, it costs money. This app doesn't connect to WiFi's automatically, it just shows you where good WiFi spots are and give you directions to them. This app will unlock the passwords of WiFi's with weak security, because my at home WiFi's password is pretty secure and it never popped up in the list. Okay app

Installed it for the first time but if you set the app as default browser it completely takes over your phone and if you tap to find a password it takes you to an ad that you get rid of , so frustrating so needless to say I uninstalled it in the first 5 or 10 mins . It could be a great but it needs to be revamped and less ads and a way to get rid of the ads when one pops up.

Disappointing & useless application. I have given this app a shot on three occasions when I didn't have a data plan to rely on. Tons of notifications and no results. Of the few passwords that might be plugged in mostar out of date. it never ever actually comes through with getting you on a Wi-Fi that you wouldn't have been able to otherwise. Don't bother.

Connects to many WiFi sources that I didn't expect, many with passwords that I don't normally have access to, even if it is a business I frequent (I never bothered to ask for the password usually). In fact, it connects so well that I have to shut off my WiFi when driving in the city or it connects to public WiFi at nearby businesses at every stoplight! The constant notification tones whenever it connects are annoying, but they can be turned off by sliding the notification tab slightly right and going into the settings gear button there.

I was under the impression that the app would somehow provide internet connection... Only if you set it up for it! It does not give you internet capabilities without paying for data and the ads are set up to where you can't hardly tell if they are for the app or not! If you don't mind paying extra it would probably work fine. My circumstances are that I don't have extra money. Great idea needs more people to participate but no free WiFi here

The app plots WiFi locations, but nearly all of them are locked down. Of the open locations, most either don't work (if you dig for more info), or haven't been used in a long time. The only working WiFi I found was through trial and error, on my own. This app may be useful in Europe as it appears the primary user base is there, but in the US, it's worthless.

I'm trying to build a WiFi phone to leave in the car. Something that, if I forget my phone or it's disabled for some reason, I can pull into a parking lot, find a hotspot, and make a call or send a text. And this exposes the glaring defect in Instabridge (and the many other WiFi finding apps that I've tried). They don't work without a data connection. When I say "work", I mean they do function somewhat, but not enough to be useful. For example, you can download a list of WiFi hotspots in your area. But, you can't browse them or look at them on a map unless you are online. The app does show you a short list of hotspots in your area that you can connect to for free, but unless you are online, it only shows what's in range of your WiFi, which is like finding a needle in a haystack. It'd be nice to show you, while OFFLINE, which WiFi hotspots were in your immediate area, even if your device couldn't detect them at the time, so you can drive or walk to them and connect. Worse, I couldn't get the list to refresh without restarting the app. I drove to the next town 3 miles over and the short list of hotspots from the town I'd just left was still displayed on the main screen, and it was still trying to connect to them. Which in some sense defeats the purpose. If you don't have data, you need this app to find a data connection, but it doesn't work without a data connection. So, it's probably great if you have really limited data, but enough to run the app. Outside of that, I don't understand the appeal.

This app ruins my phone and wouldn't let me delete it, I did not really commend you downloading it, and it damages the Wi-Fi in the places you're at, I download it, and this is happened, I really don't recommend it, and you will get in trouble for it in that place, and it completely changes your phone, iPad, whatever you using, and you can slide and ads will pop up. When you're trying to open your phone, don't download it. Really don't recommend. This will ruinwhatever you're using!

I would rate this less than one star, but that is not possible, I completely takes over your browser and it adds files, downloads, apps without your permission, and it will completely take over your phone and I'll give you ads randomly when you on your homescreen and it randomly pops up with stuff on your home screen. It pops up with a whole lot of Internet stuff and if you try to click on the Internet it doesn't really work because it tells you to get a password and permission from the owner

Absolutely awful! It completely took over my phone, rearranged EVERYTHING. Constant ads everywhere. When you really look at the permissions, you see that this app has now become the system your phone works on and everything that that entails. Oh yeah, it also downloads apps and files... Without your authorization of course. And you have to do some research to uninstall it, because that feature is also not available. NO!!!!

the app installs a new launcher browser and all connections are marked rarely work except for basic known wifi spots. I watched adds for data and guess what didn't really get the data. this app asks permissions to gain almost full access to your phone and will constantly use your own data. I believe it is used to gain access to your info while you think it's a miracle app for free internet services. Be aware.

My home screen was transformed is numerous repeat icons and new icons that I didn't understand. There were ads everywhere. When I went to uninstall the insta bridge software, the uninstall button was greyed out. Fortunately I kept fooling around with my settings and found this path to uninstall it. I get free Wi-Fi where I am. Maybe someone who has trouble locating Wi-Fi would be better able to assess this product. I was not impressed.

It's good for ethical hacking, but it doesn't have a wifi analyzer to detect rogue AP's in the area and locate them to eliminate the threat of data theft. It would be nice if that was added on ... I would reinstall then. The app works other than that for the most part it does what it's supposed to but the ads are a little bit of a turn off too. Oh well that's how it stays free .... thanks developers for a well developed app anyways.
