This screen is the one that provides you the clear idea of the strength of the network which you are using.
Once you do the right swipe, this App would show you the available networks along with statistics such as their SSIDs, whether they are locked or not and their signal strength.

Apart from all these,this App will help you to identify the “dead zones” on your home network which may slow your Wifi speed, anonymous attack etc. In case, if you are a travel freak, you can check whether there are any open Hotspots in your surrounding or not.
