App size: 9.95 Mb
The AT&T Global Wi-Fi app is designed for AT&T customers with an AT&T qualifying international travel package that includes international Wi-Fi. Details on packages may be found at att.com/global.
The App enables AT&T customers to access participating AT&T international Wi-Fi hotspots from their iPhone or iPad.* These hotspots on the app are limited to:
• international AT&T Global Wi-Fi hotspots that do not require a user name, password or acceptance of terms; as well as,
• select international Public hotspots that may require acceptance of terms or other authentication steps.
The App includes the ability to:
• Display available AT&T Global Wi-Fi and Public hotspots within Wi-Fi signal range
• Authenticate on participating international AT&T Global Wi-Fi hotspots
• Search capability by City & Country with a Map view and a List view of hotspots
GPS is needed to search for hotspots within range; continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Latest reviews of AT&T Global Wi-Fi app for iPhone and iPad
The AT&T app developers clearly arent interested in user feedback because the issues we see as global travelers have no easy path to be shared with them... and then get corrected...
In the heart of London and it fails to connect me to literally dozens of options. Tried when I got a data warning. Ironic. Thanks for nothing, AT&T.
I cant begin to express how terrible this app is. It simply doesnt work, not as advertised or any other way. In point of fact, it almost seems as if it exists to lead one to believe they will be online via one of the hundreds of hot spots that scream at you from the screen (Dublin was my location) all the whole youre eating up data, never connected to a single hot spot. Ive been with ATT since my first cell phone a hundred years ago. This app and the experience with customer service to address the issues was so terrible I contemplated leaving ATT. I still may. I say that, not as some useless threat to a multi national company but, rather, to illustrate the level of annoyance this useless app caused for the first 3 days of my vacation. I solved the problem by no longer relying on it to operate in any hot spot. Once I accepted its uselessness, my annoyance ended. Save time, dont even bother to download it. International access I will have to address through moving from att or exploring local non-contract cell options in my destination.
Refuses to log you you in even to networks that it identifies as being part of its plan. Thanks for nothing AT&T
This app is absolutely useless. It will connect you to the Wi-Fi hotspots, but then it just spins and spins and spins. Though it says you are connected, you cannot do anything.
