Question

feature request - signal strength

russellmorgan opened this issue 5 years ago · comments

Sorry for making this an "issue" but I couldn't find any other way to make contact...

Is there method to check the signal strength?
Something like this: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/networkextension/nehotspotnetwork/1618923-signalstrength

That is currently not available. I haven't thought about adding that in but it's not a bad idea. I'll leave this open and see if I can find a way to add it in for both iOS and Android.

Awesome, thanks for getting back to me. I'm currently trying to figure out how to get the strength for a prototype I'm working on and I'm hitting quite a road block. Any advice you have on the subject would be welcome, happy to fork and contribute to repo if I make a breakthrough.

Thanks man! It's what I was afraid of, you need to go for a second approval with Apple to register the app as a hotspot helper. (not a problem with Android)
