Review summary

Users appreciate the WiFi Hotspot Manager app for its clean, minimal interface and ability to display connected devices accurately without intrusive ads or permissions. However, many report frequent crashes when enabling the hotspot and note that the app lacks key features like renaming devices, blocking connections, or disconnecting devices. The app hasn't received updates since 2019, resulting in unresolved bugs and limited functionality. While it can identify connected devices better than some alternatives, inconsistent detection on certain phones reduces its reliability for hotspot management.

Pros

Simple and clean user interface without unnecessary features.
Effectively shows connected device names, IP addresses, and MAC addresses.
Small app size with minimal permissions required.
Useful for identifying devices connected to the hotspot, helping manage access.
Accurate detection of connected devices compared to similar apps.

Cons

App often crashes or stops working when the hotspot is enabled.
Lacks essential features such as renaming connected devices or blocking them.
No recent updates, leading to unresolved bugs and missing functionality.
Fails to detect connected devices consistently on some devices or Android versions.
Limited usefulness due to inability to disconnect devices or manage hotspot beyond showing connections.

2020-09-01	Pi*****	Simple/clean UI (without extra/junky features), which is exactly what I wanted, in order to identify which of my kids' devices are connected when I turn on my hotspot. However, for an app identifying/displaying IP#s, there MUST be a rename function (or at least able to read/display the device names I've signed on device side), or it's practically useless (ie. I won't possible remember all their IP#s or "Unknown Device"). If that feature is added, it'd quickly be 5 star. No updates since 2019.
