A Brand New Wi-Fi Experience.

Picture this.

You’ve just arrived at the hotel.

In a city you don’t know.

You throw yourself on the bed without unpacking.

You want to grab something to eat and you start looking for information about where to find good local restaurants. After a long search, you can’t decide between two restaurants.

Think about it, what is the factor that will make you choose one restaurant over another?

Free Wi-Fi!

Don’t be ashamed to admit it ;)

Small Biz Trend research shows that:

  • 61% of clients look for a place with free Wi-Fi
  • 45% of clients think it’s important to remain online while eating
  • 27% of clients admit they usually come back to a place where there is free Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi has become one of the main priorities of our time.

The previous post, which announced the new Wiman, started with a sentence that has become so important to us it’s now the basis of our vision:

“WiFi is valued more by the users than by the provider”

So far, Wiman has helped thousands of users worldwide to find Wi-Fi networks and auto-connect to them.

But something was missing. The puzzle was missing a piece.

Now, we’ve found that piece.

From now on, we wish to hold your hand and guide you through the whole Wi-Fi research process.

We are happy to announce the integration with Citymapper for an easier and automatic experience!

In a few words: a complete experience.

Our Wi-Fi vision is very simple and it’s divided into three steps: Search — Reach — Connect. We were only able to help you with two of these three steps until yesterday, but from now on the new Wiman app will allow you to literally reach the Wi-Fi, wherever it is.

Wherever you are. With a tap.

Alright, back to business.

You are still at the hotel, lying in bed. How can Wiman help you?

It’s super simple:

  • Open Wiman App
  • Search for free Wi-Fi networks in the area
  • Sift through the information about places that offer free Wi-Fi
  • Go to the place you’ve chosen in a few minutes using the integration with Citymapper
  • Auto-connect to the Wi-Fi
  • You’re online ;)

Search — Reach — Connect

Everything comes full circle!

What if you’re up for a drink later?

Who knows, maybe there’s a nice pub that offers free Wi-Fi around there…
