So far I've had 0 issues using this app. No requirements for unnecessary permissions, as far as I'm aware. My phone tells me that it has 0 system permissions yet the app still works as intended. I would pay for some additional features such as automatic network prioritization based on signal strength and/or user preference. Currently, the app works great.

Wow, this app is awesome. I tested it with many settings available in the menu. All works fine. You can configue it the way you want. Highly recommended to people who like to contol their wifi connection. You can disable the notifications, but still it works though mentioned not to, in Android 8+ onwards.

I've set up the app so my wifi turns off after 5 minutes of not being connected, and it seems to be doing its job. Thanks for the great free app!

I experimented with this app longer to give it more chances to work for me. Wanted to uninstall it initially. After many tries it did work for me, although I still have to keep it in launched mode in order for it to work, unlike normal clock. Thanks to the developers.

No bugs reported as the reason for not updating app in 1.5 years and no dark mode because of infrequent configuration are reasonable. Would be most useful for turning off Wi-Fi when not connected to a network.

This finally solved my battery drain issue since the option was removed in Android 9. I no longer have to worry about idle drain as much now because of Wifi and Google's constant meddling.

About this app

This simple app can help you increase the standby time of your device: WiFi Automatic automatically disable your WiFi radio when you don't need it and thereby lowers the battery consumption.

You can also specify to automatically turn on WiFi again, if you turn on your device or when you enter a specified location (requires a cell radio and therefore does not work on WiFi-only tablets!). Also, the app can regularly scan for available networks to connect to and re-disable WiFi if no suitable network is found. This way, you are always connected to your WiFi network when using the device.

WiFi Automatic is open source: https://github.com/j4velin/WiFi-Automatic

A WiFi connection generally uses less power than a mobile data connection, so on your phone, it makes sense to keep the WiFi radio active, whenever a WiFi network is in range
