In some articles published by the world's leading technology sites such as CNET.com, Facebook stated that they want to help users to find free internet or wifi signals that are available around.
A few times ago Facebook announced that the feature to find the internet signal has been launched globally. When it is launched globally means all Facebook users including Asia or even Africa can also use this feature.
This feature will be very useful especially when you are traveling to new places, of course, we will prefer a place that has a hotspot or free Wi-Fi signal while resting and chilling in a café or other places. This feature can also save the use of our internet data plan that we have paid for.
How To Find Free Internet Wi-Fi Hotspot With Facebook Locator
Before starting to step by step or tutorial, make sure that you have used the latest version of the Facebook application. For Android OS (minimum) must use version 131.0.0.29.69. IOS (iPhone) must be using version 99.0 at least.
- Open the Facebook app on your Smartphone
- Click the >Menu button (three horizontal lines). Android Smartphones are at the top-right of the screen, and the iPhone iOS Smartphone is in the bottom-right of the screen.
- Find and select >Find WI-FI. In the first use, you will be prompted to enable the feature. Click >Enable Find WI-FI.
- Find location. After activating the feature you will be shown the map where you are located and also the locations where the internet or hotspot signal is located which are marked with a red circle with a white circle inside.
- Done! Once you find a suitable location, please go to the place because this feature only helps you find, not to bring the internet to you. :) Good luck and Enjoy!
If you guys couldn’t find the Find WI-FI option, you may need to take extra effort. On the iPhone (iOS) you can find it in the Explore section and for Android, you can find it in the Apps section and then click >See All option.
Notes!
- You can zoom the location or find out more about the place that provides the free hotspot by clicking the location then select >Visit Page and you will find more information from that location.
- We can also search for wifi signals in another area by sliding the map to the desired place and then click >"Search this area" at the top of the screen.
- In some areas, there is a location that does not match, whether it has not been registered or not updated yet by the Facebook developer, so just in case, choose more than one place if you want to go to the place so if you do not find it in the first place you can still move to the next place.
- This feature cannot be used using a computer even using a mobile version. This feature can be found and used only on the Facebook app for Android and iOS (iPhone).
