Description
Struggeling with too many devices around you using the 2.4 GHz Wifi? This app tries to force your device to the less used 5 GHz band.
Starting with Android 10, Google no longer allows you to enforce a change of the WiFi band, but only give a recommendation to do so.
Please give a try whether this app works on your device. If not, please de-install the app. If you are using Android 12+, then you should additionally deactive the battery
optimizations for this app.
Necessary permissions:
* LOCATION: Google enforces the location permissions in order to get access to all Wifis around you. Without, the app won't work (unfortunately)
* WIFI/NETWORK: Of course the app needs access to your wifi interface
