Projects General Guidance

I want to connect ESP8266 wifi module to wifi network using Android app. I tried smartPoint app,which is not working correctly.

Any idea about other app.

Thank you in advance.

You don't need an app to do this. The code you put into the ESP8266 can make it connect to the network when it powers on.

I don't understand - you need to provide more information.

Where is the WiFi network that you want to connect to?

My Android phone can act as a WiFi hotspot - is that what you are doing?

I guess he is wanting the ability to load the initial configuration settings into the ESP8266 via a web browser (on his android device) so the ESP8266 can then talk to his wireless lan.

Something like this:

Edit

It looks like, in the mean time, the link is dead.

Wifi Smart Socket works correctly, only it wasn't made to control ESP8266 the same way your TV remote control or car door remote lock weren't. The word "WiFi" written on things doesn't unlock connectivity spells

@6v6gt: Sir, Yes exactly ,i want to load the initial configuration settings into the ESP8266 but via Android app so the ESP8266 can then communicate to Wifi router.

I tried smart point android app. but it is not getting connected.
