US Cellular's Wi-Fi Now for Android hops automatically to partner hotspots, saves cellular strain

US Cellular's Wi-Fi Now for Android hops automatically to partner hotspots, saves cellular strain

We've seen a paradoxical trend among carriers determined to get users off their networks as often as possible - they'd rather grant access to sea of public Wi-Fi than push their 3G or 4G networks a step too far. US Cellular isn't immune to peer pressure and has launched Wi-Fi Now, its own take on streamlining hotspot access. Android phones with the app lurking in the background will automatically latch on to the hotspots run by partners, no sign-in required, as well as factor in both the owner's home network and other hotspot accounts.
