Exactly what I need when on the road!

eduroamer · 14 years ago · v1.0

eduroam is a great free hotspot system - but how do you find the nearest hotspot when youre offline? This app tells you with an offline database, without needing expensive 3G data roaming first. Great for people like me who travel a lot.

Great!

bassi1992 · 13 years ago · v1.0.1

Great App for Finding next eduroam-Hotspot.

Funktioniert!

HyperMiler · 13 years ago · v1.0.2

Kann man jedem Wissenschaftler nur empfehlen!

worse utility, limited like a paper address list

Fridricc · 10 years ago · v1.0.2

Tested this App in Germany in Frankfurt/Main and Cologne. Well, it displays the central office location of some(!) academic institutions on a map. BUT: - not granular to anything - not location-aware, does know nothing about faculties, departments or buildings - more omission than content What a pity.

Bisher eine wirklich zu empfehlende App

Navigator..... · 9 years ago · v2.0.0

Leider funktioniert seit iOS 10 die Heatmap nicht mehr! Die war wesentlich aussagekräftiger als die offiziellen Daten. Daher leider nur noch ein ⭐️

Nice

ingens.it · 13 years ago · v1.0.2

Nice, but the new 4" retina display is not supported.

Too bad the institution database is not frequently updated

Howlatthemoon · 13 years ago

It could be quite useful, but because the database of institutions is not updated new sites cant add their locations.
