i would suggest not having your phone auto-connect to just any open wifi network, but that's just me.
- fakename 12y agoSometimes I will purposely log in to an airport's wifi network to use their connection. The next time I'm back in that airport, my phone remembers the network and automatically connects. I guess I need to manually remove these one-off networks, but I don't think I should have to micromanage my phone like that.
- leeoniya 12y agothere's probably some app to auto-forget or a setting to "never remember" specific networks (especially ones that require an intermediate EULA agreement, which i assume the airport has)
- pornel 12y agoI don't know about L, but KitKat instantly "saves" every network you tap on, even if it's broken. I didn't find option to disable that (but then I'd worry whether it'd save passwords at all).
