WifiManager

open class WifiManager
kotlin.Any
   ↳ android.net.wifi.WifiManager

This class provides the primary API for managing all aspects of Wi-Fi connectivity.

On releases before android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N, this object should only be obtained from an application context, and not from any other derived context to avoid memory leaks within the calling process.

It deals with several categories of items:

  • The list of configured networks. The list can be viewed and updated, and attributes of individual entries can be modified.
  • The currently active Wi-Fi network, if any. Connectivity can be established or torn down, and dynamic information about the state of the network can be queried.
  • Results of access point scans, containing enough information to make decisions about what access point to connect to.
  • It defines the names of various Intent actions that are broadcast upon any sort of change in Wi-Fi state.

This is the API to use when performing Wi-Fi specific operations. To perform operations that pertain to network connectivity at an abstract level, use android.net.ConnectivityManager.

Value: 0

WIFI_MODE_FULL

Added in API level 3
Deprecated in API level 29
static val WIFI_MODE_FULL: Int

Deprecated: This API is non-functional and will have no impact.

In this Wi-Fi lock mode, Wi-Fi will be kept active, and will behave normally, i.e., it will attempt to automatically establish a connection to a remembered access point that is within range, and will do periodic scans if there are remembered access points but none are in range.

Value: 1

WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF

Added in API level 12
Deprecated in API level 34
static val WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF: Int

Deprecated: The WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF is deprecated and is automatically replaced with WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY with all the restrictions documented on that lock. I.e. any request to the WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF will now obtain a WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY lock instead. Deprecation is due to the impact of WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF on power dissipation. The WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY provides much of the same desired functionality with less impact on power dissipation.

In this Wi-Fi lock mode, Wi-Fi will not go to power save. This results in operating with low packet latency. The lock is only active when the device is connected to an access point. The lock is active even when the device screen is off or the acquiring application is running in the background. This mode will consume more power and hence should be used only when there is a need for this tradeoff.

An example use case is when a voice connection needs to be kept active even after the device screen goes off. Holding a WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF lock for the duration of the voice call may improve the call quality.

When there is no support from the hardware, the WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF lock will have no impact.

Value: 3

WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY

Added in API level 29
static val WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY: Int

In this Wi-Fi lock mode, Wi-Fi will operate with a priority to achieve low latency. WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY lock has the following limitations:

  1. The lock is only active when the device is connected to an access point.
  2. The lock is only active when the screen is on.
  3. The lock is only active when the acquiring app is running in the foreground.
Low latency mode optimizes for reduced packet latency, and as a result other performance measures may suffer when there are trade-offs to make:
  1. Battery life may be reduced.
  2. Throughput may be reduced.
  3. Frequency of Wi-Fi scanning may be reduced. This may result in:
    • The device may not roam or switch to the AP with highest signal quality.
    • Location accuracy may be reduced.

Example use cases are real time gaming or virtual reality applications where low latency is a key factor for user experience.

Note: For an app which acquires both WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY and WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF locks, WIFI_MODE_FULL_LOW_LATENCY lock will be effective when app is running in foreground and screen is on, while the WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF lock will take effect otherwise.

Value: 4

WIFI_MODE_SCAN_ONLY

Added in API level 3
Deprecated in API level 29
static val WIFI_MODE_SCAN_ONLY: Int

Deprecated: This API is non-functional and will have no impact.

In this Wi-Fi lock mode, Wi-Fi will be kept active, but the only operation that will be supported is initiation of scans, and the subsequent reporting of scan results. No attempts will be made to automatically connect to remembered access points, nor will periodic scans be automatically performed looking for remembered access points. Scans must be explicitly requested by an application in this mode.

Value: 2

WIFI_MULTI_INTERNET_MODE_DBS_AP

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if the input configuration is null or if the security type in input configuration is not supported.

addNetworkSuggestions

Added in API level 29
open fun addNetworkSuggestions(networkSuggestions: MutableList<WifiNetworkSuggestion!>): Int

Provide a list of network suggestions to the device. See WifiNetworkSuggestion for a detailed explanation of the parameters. When the device decides to connect to one of the provided network suggestions, platform sends a directed broadcast ACTION_WIFI_NETWORK_SUGGESTION_POST_CONNECTION to the app if the network was created with WifiNetworkSuggestion.Builder#setIsAppInteractionRequired(boolean) flag set and the app holds ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission.

NOTE:

  • These networks are just a suggestion to the platform. The platform will ultimately decide on which network the device connects to.
  • When an app is uninstalled or disabled, all its suggested networks are discarded. If the device is currently connected to a suggested network which is being removed then the device will disconnect from that network.
  • If user reset network settings, all added suggestions will be discarded. Apps can use getNetworkSuggestions() to check if their suggestions are in the device.
  • In-place modification of existing suggestions are allowed.
    • If the provided suggestions include any previously provided suggestions by the app, previous suggestions will be updated.
    • If one of the provided suggestions marks a previously unmetered suggestion as metered and the device is currently connected to that suggested network, then the device will disconnect from that network. The system will immediately re-evaluate all the network candidates and possibly reconnect back to the same suggestion. This disconnect is to make sure that any traffic flowing over unmetered networks isn't accidentally continued over a metered network.
    • On android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#TIRAMISU or above If one of the provided suggestions marks a previously trusted suggestion as untrusted and the device is currently connected to that suggested network, then the device will disconnect from that network. The system will immediately re-evaluate all the network candidates. This disconnect is to make sure device will not remain connected to an untrusted network without a related android.net.NetworkRequest.

Requires android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_STATE
Parameters
networkSuggestions MutableList<WifiNetworkSuggestion!>: List of network suggestions provided by the app. This value cannot be null.

Exceptions
java.lang.SecurityException if the caller is missing required permissions.

addOrUpdatePasspointConfiguration

Added in API level 26
open fun addOrUpdatePasspointConfiguration(config: PasspointConfiguration!): Unit

Add or update a Passpoint configuration. The configuration provides a credential for connecting to Passpoint networks that are operated by the Passpoint service provider specified in the configuration. Each configuration is uniquely identified by a unique key which depends on the contents of the configuration. This allows the caller to install multiple profiles with the same FQDN (Fully qualified domain name). Therefore, in order to update an existing profile, it is first required to remove it using WifiManager#removePasspointConfiguration(String). Otherwise, a new profile will be added with both configuration. Deprecated for general app usage - except DO/PO apps. See WifiNetworkSuggestion.Builder#setPasspointConfig(PasspointConfiguration) to create a passpoint suggestion. See addNetworkSuggestions(java.util.List), removeNetworkSuggestions(java.util.List) for new API to add Wi-Fi networks for consideration when auto-connecting to wifi. Compatibility Note: For applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#R or above, this API will always fail and throw IllegalArgumentException.

Caller can remove a previously registered listener using WifiManager#removeSuggestionConnectionStatusListener( Same caller can add multiple listeners to monitor the event.

Applications should have the android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION and android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_WIFI_STATE permissions. Callers without the permission will trigger a java.lang.SecurityException.


Requires android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION and android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_WIFI_STATE

Parameters
executor Executor: The executor to execute the listener of the listener object. This value cannot be null. Callback and listener events are dispatched through this Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
listener WifiManager.SuggestionConnectionStatusListener: listener for suggestion network connection failure. This value cannot be null.

addSuggestionUserApprovalStatusListener

Added in API level 31
open fun addSuggestionUserApprovalStatusListener(
    executor: Executor,
    listener: WifiManager.SuggestionUserApprovalStatusListener
): Unit

Add a listener for Wi-Fi network suggestion user approval status. See SuggestionUserApprovalStatusListener. Caller will receive a callback immediately after adding a listener and when the user approval status of the caller has changed. Caller can remove a previously registered listener using WifiManager#removeSuggestionUserApprovalStatusListener( A caller can add multiple listeners to monitor the event.
Requires android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_WIFI_STATE

Parameters
executor Executor: The executor to execute the listener of the listener object. This value cannot be null. Callback and listener events are dispatched through this Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
listener WifiManager.SuggestionUserApprovalStatusListener: listener for suggestion user approval status changes. This value cannot be null.

allowAutojoinGlobal

Added in API level 33
open fun allowAutojoinGlobal(allowAutojoin: Boolean): Unit

Control whether the device will automatically search for and connect to Wi-Fi networks - auto-join Wi-Fi networks. Disabling this option will not impact manual connections - i.e. the user will still be able to manually select and connect to a Wi-Fi network. Disabling this option significantly impacts the device connectivity and is a restricted operation (see below for permissions). Note that disabling this operation will also disable connectivity initiated scanning operations.

Disabling the auto-join configuration is a temporary operation (with the exception of a DO/PO caller): it will be reset (to enabled) when the device reboots or the user toggles Wi-Fi off/on. When the caller is a DO/PO then toggling Wi-Fi will not reset the configuration. Additionally, if a DO/PO disables auto-join then it cannot be (re)enabled by a non-DO/PO caller.

Parameters
allowAutojoin Boolean: true to allow auto-join, false to disallow auto-join Available for DO/PO apps. Other apps require android.Manifest.permission#NETWORK_SETTINGS or android.Manifest.permission#MANAGE_WIFI_NETWORK_SELECTION permission.

Note: Network communication may not use Wi-Fi even if Wi-Fi is connected; traffic may instead be sent through another network, such as cellular data, Bluetooth tethering, or Ethernet. For example, traffic will never use a Wi-Fi network that does not provide Internet access (e.g. a wireless printer), if another network that does offer Internet access (e.g. cellular data) is available. Applications that need to ensure that their network traffic uses Wi-Fi should use APIs such as Network#bindSocket(java.net.Socket), Network#openConnection(java.net.URL), or ConnectivityManager#bindProcessToNetwork to do so. Applications are not allowed to enable networks created by other applications.

Parameters
netId Int: the ID of the network as returned by addNetwork or getConfiguredNetworks.
attemptConnect Boolean: The way to select a particular network to connect to is specify true for this parameter.
Return
Boolean true if the operation succeeded

getConfiguredNetworks

Added in API level 1
Deprecated in API level 29
open fun getConfiguredNetworks(): MutableList<WifiConfiguration!>!

Deprecated: a) See WifiNetworkSpecifier.Builder#build() for new mechanism to trigger connection to a Wi-Fi network. b) See addNetworkSuggestions(java.util.List), removeNetworkSuggestions(java.util.List) for new API to add Wi-Fi networks for consideration when auto-connecting to wifi. Compatibility Note: For applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q or above, this API will always fail and return an empty list.

Deprecation Exemptions:

  • Device Owner (DO), Profile Owner (PO) and system apps will have access to the full list.
  • Callers with Carrier privilege will receive a restricted list only containing configurations which they created.

Return a list of all the networks configured for the current foreground user. Not all fields of WifiConfiguration are returned. Only the following fields are filled in:

getConnectionInfo

Added in API level 1
Deprecated in API level 31
open fun getConnectionInfo(): WifiInfo!

Deprecated: Starting with Build.VERSION_CODES#S, WifiInfo retrieval is moved to ConnectivityManager API surface. WifiInfo is attached in NetworkCapabilities#getTransportInfo() which is available via callback in NetworkCallback#onCapabilitiesChanged(Network, NetworkCapabilities) or on-demand from ConnectivityManager#getNetworkCapabilities(Network).

Usage example:
final NetworkRequest request =
       new NetworkRequest.Builder()
       .addTransportType(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_WIFI)
       .build();
  final ConnectivityManager connectivityManager =
       context.getSystemService(ConnectivityManager.class);
  final NetworkCallback networkCallback = new NetworkCallback() {
       ...
       @Override
       void onAvailable(Network network) {}
 
       @Override
       void onCapabilitiesChanged(Network network, NetworkCapabilities networkCapabilities) {
           WifiInfo wifiInfo = (WifiInfo) networkCapabilities.getTransportInfo();
       }
       // etc.
  };
  connectivityManager.requestNetwork(request, networkCallback); // For request
  connectivityManager.registerNetworkCallback(request, networkCallback); // For listen
  

Compatibility Notes:

  • Apps can continue using this API, however newer features such as ability to mask out location sensitive data in WifiInfo will not be supported via this API.
  • On devices supporting concurrent connections (indicated via isStaConcurrencyForLocalOnlyConnectionsSupported(), etc) this API will return the details of the internet providing connection (if any) to all apps, except for the apps that triggered the creation of the concurrent connection. For such apps, this API will return the details of the connection they created. e.g. apps using WifiNetworkSpecifier will trigger a concurrent connection on supported devices and hence this API will provide details of their peer to peer connection (not the internet providing connection). This is to maintain backwards compatibility with behavior on single STA devices.
  • Return dynamic information about the current Wi-Fi connection, if any is active.

    Return
    WifiInfo! the Wi-Fi information, contained in WifiInfo.

    getDhcpInfo

    reportCreateInterfaceImpact

    Added in API level 33
    open fun reportCreateInterfaceImpact(
        interfaceType: Int,
        requireNewInterface: Boolean,
        executor: Executor,
        resultCallback: BiConsumer<Boolean!, MutableSet<WifiManager.InterfaceCreationImpact!>!>
    ): Unit

    Queries the framework to determine whether the specified interface can be created, and if so - what other interfaces would be torn down by the framework to allow this creation if it were requested. The result is returned via the specified BiConsumer callback which returns two arguments:

  • First argument: a boolean - indicating whether or not the interface can be created.
  • Second argument: a Set<InterfaceCreationImpact> - if the interface can be created (first argument is true then this is the set of interface types which will be removed and the packages which requested them. Possibly an empty set. If the first argument is false, then an empty set will be returned here.
  • Interfaces, input and output, are specified using the WIFI_INTERFACE_* constants: WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_STA, WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_AP, WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_AWARE, or WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_DIRECT.

    This method does not actually create the interface. That operation is handled by the framework when a particular service method is called. E.g. a Wi-Fi Direct interface may be created when various methods of android.net.wifi.p2p.WifiP2pManager are called, similarly for Wi-Fi Aware and android.net.wifi.aware.WifiAwareManager.

    Note: the information returned via this method is the current snapshot of the system. It may change due to actions of the framework or other apps.
    Requires android.Manifest.permission#MANAGE_WIFI_INTERFACES and android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_WIFI_STATE

    Parameters
    interfaceType Int: The interface type whose possible creation is being queried. Value is android.net.wifi.WifiManager#WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_STA, android.net.wifi.WifiManager#WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_AP, android.net.wifi.WifiManager#WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_AWARE, or android.net.wifi.WifiManager#WIFI_INTERFACE_TYPE_DIRECT
    requireNewInterface Boolean: Indicates that the query is for a new interface of the specified type - an existing interface won't meet the query. Some operations (such as Wi-Fi Direct and Wi-Fi Aware are a shared resource and so may not need a new interface).
    executor Executor: An Executor on which to return the result. This value cannot be null. Callback and listener events are dispatched through this Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
    resultCallback BiConsumer<Boolean!, MutableSet<WifiManager.InterfaceCreationImpact!>!>: The asynchronous callback which will return two argument: a boolean (whether the interface can be created), and a Set<InterfaceCreationImpact> (a set of InterfaceCreationImpact: interfaces which will be destroyed when the interface is created and the packages which requested them and thus may be impacted). This value cannot be null.

    setTdlsEnabled

    Added in API level 19
    open fun setTdlsEnabled(
        remoteIPAddress: InetAddress!,
        enable: Boolean
    ): Unit

    Enable/Disable TDLS on a specific local route.

    TDLS enables two wireless endpoints to talk to each other directly without going through the access point that is managing the local network. It saves bandwidth and improves quality of the link.

    This API enables/disables the option of using TDLS. If enabled, the underlying hardware is free to use TDLS or a hop through the access point. If disabled, existing TDLS session is torn down and hardware is restricted to use access point for transferring wireless packets. Default value for all routes is 'disabled', meaning restricted to use access point for transferring packets.

    Parameters
    remoteIPAddress InetAddress!: IP address of the endpoint to setup TDLS with
    enable Boolean: true = setup and false = tear down TDLS

    setTdlsEnabled

    Added in API level 34
    open fun setTdlsEnabled(
        remoteIPAddress: InetAddress,
        enable: Boolean,
        executor: Executor,
        resultsCallback: Consumer<Boolean!>
    ): Unit

    Enable/Disable TDLS on a specific local route. Similar to setTdlsEnabled(java.net.InetAddress,boolean), except this version sends the result of the Enable/Disable request.

    Parameters
    remoteIPAddress InetAddress: IP address of the endpoint to setup TDLS with This value cannot be null.
    enable Boolean: true = setup and false = tear down TDLS
    executor Executor: The executor on which callback will be invoked. This value cannot be null. Callback and listener events are dispatched through this Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
    resultsCallback Consumer<Boolean!>: An asynchronous callback that will return Boolean indicating whether TDLS was successfully enabled or disabled. true for success, false for failure. This value cannot be null.
    Exceptions
    java.lang.NullPointerException if the caller provided invalid inputs.

To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use Context.getMainExecutor(). Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
    resultsCallback Consumer<Boolean!>: An asynchronous callback that will return Boolean indicating whether TDLS was successfully enabled or disabled. true for success, false for failure. This value cannot be null.
    Exceptions
    java.lang.NullPointerException if the caller provided invalid inputs.

    setWifiEnabled

    Added in API level 1
    Deprecated in API level 29
    open fun setWifiEnabled(enabled: Boolean): Boolean

    Deprecated: Starting with Build.VERSION_CODES#Q, applications are not allowed to enable/disable Wi-Fi. Compatibility Note: For applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#Q or above, this API will always fail and return false. If apps are targeting an older SDK (android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#P or below), they can continue to use this API.

    Deprecation Exemptions:

    • Device Owner (DO), Profile Owner (PO) and system apps.
    Starting with android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#TIRAMISU, DO/COPE may set a user restriction (DISALLOW_CHANGE_WIFI_STATE) to only allow DO/PO to use this API.

    Enable or disable Wi-Fi.

    Applications must have the android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_STATE permission to toggle wifi.

    Parameters
    enabled Boolean: true to enable, false to disable.
    Return
    Boolean false if the request cannot be satisfied; true indicates that wifi is either already in the requested state, or in progress toward the requested state.
    Exceptions
    java.lang.SecurityException if the caller is missing required permissions.

    startLocalOnlyHotspot

    Added in API level 26
    open fun startLocalOnlyHotspot(
        callback: WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotCallback!,
        handler: Handler?
    ): Unit

    Request a local only hotspot that an application can use to communicate between co-located devices connected to the created WiFi hotspot. The network created by this method will not have Internet access. Each application can make a single request for the hotspot, but multiple applications could be requesting the hotspot at the same time. When multiple applications have successfully registered concurrently, they will be sharing the underlying hotspot. LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#onStarted(LocalOnlyHotspotReservation) is called when the hotspot is ready for use by the application.

    Each application can make a single active call to this method. The android.net.wifi.WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#onStarted(android.net.wifi.WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotReservation) callback supplies the requestor with a LocalOnlyHotspotReservation that contains a SoftApConfiguration with the SSID, security type and credentials needed to connect to the hotspot. Communicating this information is up to the application.

    If the LocalOnlyHotspot cannot be created, the LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#onFailed(int) method will be called. Example failures include errors bringing up the network or if there is an incompatible operating mode. For example, if the user is currently using Wifi Tethering to provide an upstream to another device, LocalOnlyHotspot may not start due to an incompatible mode. The possible error codes include: LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#ERROR_NO_CHANNEL, LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#ERROR_GENERIC, LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_MODE and LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#ERROR_TETHERING_DISALLOWED.

    Internally, requests will be tracked to prevent the hotspot from being torn down while apps are still using it. The LocalOnlyHotspotReservation object passed in the android.net.wifi.WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#onStarted(android.net.wifi.WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotReservation) call should be closed when the LocalOnlyHotspot is no longer needed using LocalOnlyHotspotReservation#close(). Since the hotspot may be shared among multiple applications, removing the final registered application request will trigger the hotspot teardown. This means that applications should not listen to broadcasts containing wifi state to determine if the hotspot was stopped after they are done using it. Additionally, once LocalOnlyHotspotReservation#close() is called, applications will not receive callbacks of any kind.

    Applications should be aware that the user may also stop the LocalOnlyHotspot through the Settings UI; it is not guaranteed to stay up as long as there is a requesting application. The requestors will be notified of this case via LocalOnlyHotspotCallback#onStopped(). Other cases may arise where the hotspot is torn down (Emergency mode, etc). Application developers should be aware that it can stop unexpectedly, but they will receive a notification if they have properly registered.

    Applications should also be aware that this network will be shared with other applications. Applications are responsible for protecting their data on this network (e.g. TLS).

    Applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#TIRAMISU or later need to have the following permissions: android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_STATE and android.Manifest.permission#NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICES. Applications targeting Build.VERSION_CODES#S or prior SDK levels need to have the following permissions: android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_STATE and android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION Callers without the permissions will trigger a java.lang.SecurityException.

    Parameters
    callback WifiManager.LocalOnlyHotspotCallback!: LocalOnlyHotspotCallback for the application to receive updates about operating status.
    handler Handler?: Handler to be used for callbacks. If the caller passes a null Handler, the main thread will be used.

    Deprecated in API level 28
    open fun startScan(): Boolean

    Deprecated: The ability for apps to trigger scan requests will be removed in a future release.

    Request a scan for access points. Returns immediately. The availability of the results is made known later by means of an asynchronous event sent on completion of the scan.

    To initiate a Wi-Fi scan, declare the android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_WIFI_STATE permission in the manifest, and perform these steps:

    1. Invoke the following method: ((WifiManager) getSystemService(WIFI_SERVICE)).startScan()
    2. Register a BroadcastReceiver to listen to SCAN_RESULTS_AVAILABLE_ACTION.
    3. When a broadcast is received, call: ((WifiManager) getSystemService(WIFI_SERVICE)).getScanResults()
