It gives you points, which you can exchange for Amazon vouchers, in return for pinpointing and verifying wifi hotspots. I've just signed up so not really sure what I am doing yet but thought I'd mention it in case it floats someone's boat!

It's those first 100 users who verify 30 hot spots get £20 Amazon thing I am interested in ;)

OK, to do 'Explore' mode which is what you need to do you need a Google device

So am taking my work phone which is Android to see how this works

I'd be interested to hear how you get on. There are literally hundreds of greyed out (unverified) hotspots near me but I can't escape the office until tonight. I'm not sure I really understand the instructions but I was going to go out there and bash some buttons until something happened :)

done a few

u go there, click on the grey icon, verify it, confirm the WiFi / Location / Name etc.

I have also added wifi hotspots which aren't there. to do that hold your finger on the map and add the name/details having chosen the WiFi network in question

Installed and I have ONE! Even that is a 10 minute drive away...I think I need to move ???

In London next weekend so hopefully grab a few there though I might show this one to Aaron for while he is driving around.

I had to re-locate myself from France as well.

Barely any hotspots showing near me, but nothing showing for places like Costa, Waitrose & pubs (except a Weatherspoons). Looked at a couple of other towns & not much showing there either.

You can ADD spots and then verify them if you know of free WiFi areas near you
