Facebook has grew from been just an ordinary social media app. It is now part of our everyday life, you can buy/sell on Facebook, shop on FB and even do a lot more than that.


This time around, Facebook has introduced a new feature called Wi-fi Discovery that allows users to find Free and Public WiFi hotspots from within the App/website.


The new feature called Wi-Fi Discovery is being tested and is designed to highlight places where Facebook users can access free and public Wi-Fi places. This feature is currently available for iOS users and the testing is currently available for some selected countries and should be available worldwide by next month.


A Facebook spoke person confirmed this “To help people stay connected to the friends and experiences they care about, we are rolling out a new feature that surfaces open Wi-Fi networks associated with nearby places.”

How Can I Access it on iOS?
>>Update your Facebook App to the latest
>> scroll the menu option to locate the “Enable Find Wi-Fi.” Toggle the settings so its turn on and the app will automatically detect the nearby free Wi-Fi.

Note: For the Facebook WiFi Discovery feature to work, you have to activate your Location.

It is a welcome development… waiting for it to be rolled out globally.
