Total Hotspots hits Android

Total Hotspots the WiFi locating application that's been available on iPhone for a while has now been officially released for Android.

The Total Hotspots service is powered by the Rummble API and acquired by Rummble in 2009 now contains over 250,000 WiFi locations.

Total Hotspots gets the WiFi location data from multiple sources including user input, but it's all user rated, so users get a personalised rating that's relevant to them.

More information can be found on Rummble's site.

TotalHotspots goes free

Total Hotspots today have dropped the price of their iPhone app to a free download from iTunes.

The app which uses the Rummble API for trust relationships between users etc allows users to search for WiFi locations and also rate them, other users can then search for nearby WiFi hotspots and get a user rating.

The app works with both free and paid for hotspots and has various WiFi databases as well as user supplied entries.

If you're using an iPhone then it's a sensible app to download if you're ever in need of a WiFi location. Of course all the data is available through the website too.

Total Hotspots gets Rummbled

Rummble has acquired Total Hotspots (THS). THS already used Rummble's technology to power the THS service whereby users could find and rate WiFi services.

THS has reduced the price of their iPhone application over the Christmas period from £2.99 to £0.59.

Alex Housley CEO of THS now joins Rummble as VP Business to help drive service development and key partnerships.
