Pros and cons of iPass SmartConnect™ app for iPhone and iPad
iPass SmartConnect™ app good for
Great user experience, I particularly like the offline hotspot finder so I can always find the nearest available hotspot, and connect immediately.
The software is actually not needed after the first connections, it remains on background and the connections are visible directly on my iPad and iPhone, cool stuff.
The iPass app works very well with my iPhone 4s but it constantly crashes on my iPhone 5. Strange!
Just used this app on my flight to LA to connect to inflight WiFi and it connected just fine. I didnt have any issues....
Motion notifications are a little annoying some times but 5 stars for my great inflight experience.
This app is a great way to get free wifi about anywhere. Its easy to use as well.
iPass connects me securely and seemlessly to Wi-Fi hotspots anywhere and everywhere. The "smart" technology allows me to be a productive mobile professional. Great innovative service!
After a few flights it began connecting me automatically to gogo. Really happy with this app.
Some bad moments
Previous version was working okay. The new release does not start up on IOS5.1
This app makes it so much harder to connect to free wifi offered by hotel, airport, etc that has ipass designation even your hotel rate include internet. As an example: attwifi. It is very frustrating that you have to login and logout through ipass then it will allow you to logon to the logon page. On top of that it always disconnect and makes your connection unstable. The only solution is to uninstall and cancel your membership. Go with other services.
Have to uninstall app in order to connect at Marriott hotels.
Whats about old Corporate IDs used in iPass Wifi global connect? Why this old version was dismissed before ensure Corporate customers was migrated to new one authentication schema?
I cannot even turn it off, how could I connect to the free wifi!!! Have to delete it!!!
We are testing this app and its not cutting it. You have to open the iPass app to connect to previously connected wifi even when in range. At other times when it connects theres no service so why does it connect. I verified the ipass traffic throttle down and its very very slow. I prefer not to use this garbage.
