- Turn off open Wi-Fi network nags
For some reason, Android phones like to notify you
constantly when there’s an open Wi-Fi network in
range, regardless of the potential security risks and
unreliability of connecting to random hotspots. Turn
off these nags by heading to Settings > Connections,
then selecting Wi-Fi. (Make sure to press the text,
not the toggle on the right.) On the next screen,
select Advanced, then turn off the toggle for
Network notification. If your carrier has a setting
for auto-connecting to its own hotspots, I suggest
turning that off as well.
