7 Best Hotspot Apps for Android

Today internet is a must-have for everyone. The need for the internet is rising every day. For everything, we require the internet. Even if it is for small and minute tasks. Without the internet, we are lost. Also, during the pandemic, the internet was our lifesaver.

We could reach at least some extent of normalcy only because of the internet; we could continue our education, attend online meetings, etc. Can you imagine a life without the internet? You can’t, right? Nor can we. Thank God there’s an invention of hotspot apps that acts as a lifesaver. 

Although all the android phones have an in-mobile hotspot feature, not everyone likes to use it as it’s not very convenient. The in-built hotspot has some limitations. With an android hotspot app, you can quickly turn your device into a Wi-Fi hotspot.

We know when there are many choices, confusion is complimentary. But in any case, do not worry; we are here for you. We have curated a list of the 7 Best Hotspot Apps for Android to save your time and money.

Best Hotspot Apps for Android

1. Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot

Let’s begin the list with Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot, an app to enhance the internet experience. This app allows users to convert the regular Wi-Fi module of their device into an access point. The user interface of this app is simple and transparent and easy to use.

The working of the Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot app is in AP mode, and a user just needs to write the name of their hotspot and password. Furthermore, users can also rename the hotspot’s name (SSID).

Security is the heart of this app, and there’s no chance of data theft over the wireless internet. The app needs to be configured before use, and the configuring process is relatively easy.

2. PdaNet+

PdaNet+ is one of the most popular hotspot applications available in the app market. PdaNet+ is free, and to have internet access on your device, you don’t need to root it. However, users need to set up a proxy or install a client application.

This app uses your android device as a Wi-Fi access point, connecting all the stationary devices around it. Any device that comes close to your device gets quickly detected by this app, and also you get all the information about that device.

Also, users can share the internet via Bluetooth and USB. This app offers Direct Wi-Fi Hotspot, which is quite helpful. The friendly user interface of PdaNet+ allows users to protect their network by setting a password and customized hotspot name.

3. FoxFi

The third app on our list of best hotspot apps for android is FoxFi. If you are looking for reliable and free Android hotspot apps, then FoxFi is your pick. There’s a preconceived notion that free hotspot apps don’t work correctly, but FoxFi has proved that all these are myths.

With its excellent and friendly user interface and advanced features, FoxFi is a clear favorite. Even using Bluetooth and USB mode, users can connect devices.

This app works on all Android versions, no matter how old it is. The internet connection provided by this app is more durable and stable. However, once the trial version ends, users need to pay in order to continue further.

4. NetShare

The fourth app on the list is NetShare, which helps you create a Wi-Fi hotspot to share your internet with other devices without any extra cost. Typically, the modem blocks the Wi-Fi connection, but you can easily bypass the modem, and the access point locks with this app.

Although the connection provided by the Netshare app is secretive, it is safe and does not expose any device to data piracy. Most importantly, NetShare does not require root access to create a hotspot.

Not just Wi-Fi hotspots, this app can also create USB and Bluetooth hotspots like other apps. Users can distribute the internet without mobile internet- something unique only to the NetShare app. However, it only works on devices with android version 6 and above.

5. Xfinity Wi-Fi Hotspots

The next app on our list is Xfinity Wi-Fi Hotspots, a widely loved hotspot app. The Xfinity Wi-Fi Hotspots app is exclusively for Xfinity Internet’s customers and offers the entire map of all nearby Xfinity hotspots with no geographical restrictions.

As soon as a user is in the range of a hotspot, the app will automatically connect without entering the password. Users can even locate a nearby Xfinity hotspot area.

Also, the Xfinity Wi-Fi Hotspot app allows users to save their favorite hotspot area. There’s a business category feature in this app where the internet’s speed is relatively more. However, for that, login credentials are required.

6. Osmino

Moving forward on our list of best hotspot apps for android, next we have Osmino, one of the most secured hotspot apps. Osmino is exclusively designed to share your android device’s internet with all the devices around you.

The speed of this app is incredible and loved by many. The app uses the integrated mobile device hotspot feature to achieve this high-speed internet. We were not kidding when we said Osmino is the most secure app. For a user to get connected via this app, they need to enter a key, failing which connection is not possible.

And to get the key, users are required to subscribe to the Wi-Fi network. Even users can change their password so no unauthorized person can access their internet. The only limitation of the Osmino app is that all android versions do not support it.

7. Wi-Fi Automatic

Finally, the last app in our list is Wi-Fi Automatic, a pretty easy and convenient hotspot app for android. With Wi-Fi Automatic, users can get internet without any extra cost as that of a Wi-Fi router.

Wi-Fi Automatic app automatically protects the device’s battery life by automatically turning off the Wi-Fi when not in use. The Wi-Fi Automatic app supports multiple languages such as Spanish, English, French, etc.

This app has a custom map style and is supported by many android versions. The user interface of this app is easy to use. The advanced technology of the Wi-Fi Automatic app gives faster and more reliable connectivity.
