The Good: In a big city with loads of Wi-Fi networks and struggling to find out an open one? Now your iPhone helps you in that. Use the Setting Wi-Fi dialog to connect to an open network. The WiFinder app is here to help you:

1. It checks the local networks to see which are open.
2. It then attempts to connect to them and retrieve the web page of a popular web browser.
3. If it manages to go through it flashes green check mark indicating that it is safe to use.

The app catches those Wi-Fi with very low signal strengths, staffs that generally Apple’s Wi-Fi settings do not catch.

The Bad: Right now the app is in a sort of a beta state. For instance the listing of  networkings is pretty arbitrary. And a horribly drab looking interface. Price? Well, probably just a tad overpriced since the app’s forthcoming version suggests a much better version.
