PUNE: People
can now search the location of public WiFi hotspots in the city with Datally, a
smart and simple Android app that helps smart phone users understand, control
and save mobile data, Google announced on Tuesday.
Datally, launched in November last year, works on all smart phones
running Android 5.0 (Lollipop) and higher and is available on the Google Play
Store globally.
Over 10,000 hotspots across India can be found with Datally. To
find the nearest hotspot with Datally, a user needs to click on "Find
Wi-Fi". The user would see all the networks which are available - rated by
the Datally community. Once connected, a user could rate the Wi-Fi networks
based on their own experience.
The announcement came almost two months after Google, in partnership
with Larsen & Toubro, announced 150 Google Station WiFi hotspots in Pune.
The development was a part of the Pune Smart City Development
Corporation Limited's "Smart City" project and was the first time
that the company deployed "Google Station" - a localised captive
portal that enables the connection to public Wi-Fi - outside of the railways.
