SINGAPORE, Oct. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- WiFi Master Key (goo.gl/AA2CmY), a free crowdsourcing WiFi app tops the Google Play app chart as the no. 1 free utility app, and no. 5 free app in Malaysia since Sept 29 2015.
A heightened popularity for safe WiFi sharing among users in the South East Asian region is credited for this success. Through the concept of crowdsourcing, users can share WiFi hotspots with the community via the app. To protect user privacy and data security, the app is designed not to reveal any shared WiFi passwords; instead, it encrypts and stores the shared information in its cloud database. Other users can then retrieve this secured information to get connected.
Reaping the huge success of being China's third largest mobile app in terms of user base, the company strategically set up a Singapore headquarter this May to tap into the fast growing markets in the region.

Key features of the app include safe WiFi sharing without revealing shared passwords, in-built signal detector, customisable power saving settings, tethering function and more to enhance connectivity experience.
