McAfee Safe Wi-Fi 1.1.0.204 Apk

Smartphones send Wi-Fi signals when connecting to home or office networks. These signals contain information that can be used to track and map your device.

When you’re in an unknown zone, we turn off your Wi-Fi to protect your device info. And when you’re in a known Wi-Fi zone, we turn your Wi-Fi back on. We keep your device info safe by remembering the Wi-Fi zones you’re in.

What info is leaked when Wi-Fi is on?
1. Wi-Fi network names you’ve connected to
2. Your mobile device unique identifier, or MAC address

How do we protect you?
When you’re on the go—say at hotels, airport, shops, cafés—your device can be tracked and information about your whereabouts can be leaked to others. Imagine a a grocery store visit where your route in the store and your buying habits are tracked. With this valuable information, the store manager can advertise to you in specific locations around the store according to your buying habits.

The solution? With McAfee Safe Wi-Fi, we turn off your Wi-Fi when you’re not using it to keep your data from being leaked and tracked.

How does it work?
The app checks a cell tower ID instead of your GPS location to decide whether your Wi-Fi should be on or off. When you’re away from this Wi-Fi “zone”, the app turns off your Wi-Fi.

Notifications
We let you know your Wi-Fi status and networks you’re connected to.

McAfee Safe Wi-Fi does not gather any of your personal info. We may ask for minimal permissions to perform certain operations. And best of all, it’s a free app, with no ads.
