Google is boosting the signal on Wi-Fi Assistant, a special Nexus phone feature that allows you to join free Wi-Fi hotspots instantly.
Once exclusive to Project Fi users in the US with either a Nexus 5X or 6P, the feature is expanding out to all Nexus owners in the US, UK, Canada, Mexico and Nordic countries.
In case you’re paranoid about security when connecting to a bunch of free networks, don’t fret – Wi-Fi Assistant is turned off by default, and also uses encryption each time you connect.
