Unlike many other apps that aim to fix Android Wi-Fi problems, it does not run as a service in the background – it only runs when you open it.

It therefore does not add any CPU (processor) load to your device and does not consume your battery.

It is recommended to install it even if your Wi-Fi is working so it will be available if Wi-Fi stops working in future – the app is so tiny it takes up virtually no space.

One click activation – wait for a few seconds (up to about one minute) and that’s it!

How Bad Android’s Fragmentation Problem Is [GRAPHIC]

Android

When Google first launched Android, the open-source operating system came with the promise that it could power almost any device. That’s created a proverbial cornucopia of mobile devices that consumers have to choose from, but it’s also led to the issue of fragmentation — there are so many devices running different versions of Android with different capabilities that can alter experience.

Just how bad is the problem? The site Open Signal Maps studied fragmentation in detail, gathering data from 195 countries, and it put its findings in easy-to-discern graphics. The main takeaways: Yes, fragmentation is huge, with 3,997 devices, but it’s also a blessing that has led to the platform becoming the No. 1 mobile OS in the world by far.

From the graphic above, it’s clear Samsung is the king of the mountain among Android devices. The company’s Android phones and tablets make up 40% of the devices Open Signal was able to discern through its methodology. HTC is next, followed by Sony Ericsson, Motorola and LG.

The graphic below shows that the Samsung Galaxy S II smartphone is the most popular device, making it the world’s most popular Android phone. If you’re a developer, you’d do well by ensuring your apps are optimized for the S II first.


For the Android OS itself, a little more than half of Android devices run the most recent version of Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3). About 5.7% of devices are tablets running some version of Android 3.0 “Honeycomb,” and 8.5% are phones or tablets running the latest version of Android, version 4.0 “Ice Cream Sandwich.”

In conclusion, the study notes, “API and screen fragmentation is probably going to get worse. Android has, however, shown commitment to make it easier to target multiple screen sizes — by introducing the (perhaps ironically named) fragments APIs in 2011 which makes it easier to turn view elements into modules.”
