There are over 56 million verified hotspots in the WeFi database, and new features make it a must-have app on your laptop or supported phone.<\/p>\n<p>WeFi for PC and Android devices now allows you to enter an address and find all the Wi-Fi hotspots nearby. The hotspots have verified information that includes the type of location (cafe, library, etc.), whether the hotspot is free, if a password is required and even if a web page is used to access the connection. Crowd-sourcing is used to ensure the database is not only growing, but is verified by the 4 million users of the service.<\/p>\n<p>Maps are now available on to show hotspots onscreen, so finding one is now easier than ever. The maps coupled with the &#8220;Find Wi-Fi&#8221; feature make getting online easy using the GPS found in most handsets. The maps will show any verified hotspot around the current location when the feature is used.<\/p>\n<p>The free WeFi service is available on both notebooks (Windows and Macs) and phones running Android, Windows Mobile and Symbian. Sorry iPhone and iPad users, there&#8217;s no support for you.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t\t\t\tvar galleryData = [{\"title\":\"WeFi hotspot map\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/04\\\/wefi-findwifi2.png?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"WeFi hotspot list\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/04\\\/wefi-list_of_spots.png?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"WeFi connected\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/04\\\/wefi-connected.png?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}];\n\t\t\t\t   <\/script><\/p>\n<div id='gallery'>\n<ol>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/04\/wefi-findwifi2.png?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/04\/wefi-list_of_spots.png?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/04\/wefi-connected.png?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div id='gallery-nav-outer'>\n<div class=\"loader\" id=\"gallery-loading\"><span>Loading<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span id='gallery-next' class='nav' title='Next Image'>Next<\/span><span id='gallery-prev' class='nav' title='Previous Image'>Previous<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-nav-inner'>\n<div id='gallery-nav'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"gallery-meta\">\n<div class=\"count\">Picture <span id=\"gallery-count\">1<\/span> of 3 <\/div>\n<h5 id=\"gallery-title\">WeFi hotspot map<\/h5>\n<p id=\"gallery-caption\">\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pro.gigaom.com\/2010\/04\/q1-2010-mobile-overview\/\">Related      GigaOM Pro Content<\/a> (sub req\u2019d)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/stats.wordpress.com\/b.gif?host=jkontherun.com&#038;blog=4479943&#038;post=61935&#038;subd=jkontherun&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:D7DqB2pKExk\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:D7DqB2pKExk\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:dnMXMwOfBR0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?d=dnMXMwOfBR0\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=0rawddulBl0:ceTqwQTBGZg:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/jkOnTheRun\/~4\/0rawddulBl0\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve been all over WeFi for Android since it first appeared, and the useful service just got even better.
