Note: There is a new improved version called "Wifi Roaming Fix", which we recommend you try first as it is more efficient.


If you have two (or more) routers or wireless access points (AP) in your home or office, then this app selects the strongest one as you move around the building.

Normally your phone should already do this by itself, in which case you do not need this app - it will do "nothing". However in some Android devices there is a bug or missing function in the wifi drivers. This app will fix this problem.

Note: all your APs must have the same SSID (wifi network name), and be set to different channels/frequencies. If your APs have different SSIDs, then this app will do "nothing". The security settings (password) must be the same on all APs.

This app does not replace any Android functionality - you select which network you are using as before. This app does not change networks - it only selects the strongest AP from the network you are using.

The app is very lightweight - it sits in the background receiving measurements from the Wifi drivers. It only does something when the signal level is weak and there is a stronger signal from another AP in your network.

This app can save power and give a longer battery life, because when the wifi is connected to a stronger AP, your device uses less transmit power. If several apps are running, then the battery consumption shows around 1-2%%. If it is the only app running then the percentage is higher - though this does not mean the app is consuming more power! A high percentage only means that there are not many other background tasks running. There is an Android setting that causes higher battery usage, see the forum for a description.

The app includes an algorithm to prevent frequent changes when two APs have a similar signal strength.

In many mobile phones this functionality is performed by the wifi drivers. However in some Android devices this does not work, which is why this app was developed.

This is the first version of the app, please check back for updates. There are no settings at the moment, though these will be added in a future version.

If it works without problems on your phone, please leave a comment below (with your phone model and Android version). If it does "nothing", then please don't leave negative feedback, because it discourages those who have the real problem that this app fixes.

If you do have the SSID problem and the app doesn't solve it, then please go to the forum on our website (heleron.com), where you can ask questions.
