The app "Public Wi-fi Location Services in NYC!" is open for anyone and about the provision of public Wi-Fi services in New York City is undeniably beneficial for any residents and visitors alike. The project address how without assistance, many individuals are able to find where nearby Wi-Fi is available. Throughout the design and development process, the idea was made to help others in New York City with the help of finding secure and accessible Wi-fi in the five boroughs.

How the project works is that the user inputs which borough they would like using the dropdowns. The output will be randomized with the location of the public Wi-Fi, the provider, where the user will be able to access the Wi-Fi and the postal code which will be displayed in the appropriate text areas.

More information will be listed on the presentation and please enjoy the app!
