List available wifi network

From what I see surfing the internet, I have to use the

NEHotspotHelper

classes and request apple the granting of a special permit for my provisioning profile but it is not clear to me what I have to ask apple or what process I have to follow to get it.

Take a look the Important box at the top of the main Hotspot Helper documentation page.

To do this, I need to show the user the Wi-Fi networks that are within their reach at a specific moment for the user to select our network and the app to carry out the authentication process.

Just so we’re clear, these isn’t how hotspot helper works. Rather:

• Your hotspot helper can annotate networks as being supported by it.

• The user chooses the network via the usual means.

• The hotspot network subsystem invokes your helper to do the authentication.

It is possible for a hotspot helper to build a list of known networks as a side effect of this process, but there’s is no API that simply returns a list of nearby networks.

For more background on this, see the Hotspot Network Subsystem Programming Guide and the Technical bullet on this post.

Hello,

Based on the documentation you have provided me, in order to list nearby Wi-Fi networks I would have to use the class "kNEHotspotHelperCommandTypeFilterScanList". But for this I would need permission to use NEHotspotHelper. I'm right?

First up, just to be clear, any use of the

NEHotspotHelper

com.apple.developer.networking.HotspotHelper

Secondly, you wrote:

Based on the documentation you have provided me, in order to list nearby Wi-Fi networks I would have to use the class

kNEHotspotHelperCommandTypeFilterScanList

.

It is true that scan result are passed through your hotspot helper via the

kNEHotspotHelperCommandTypeFilterScanList

The hotspot helper API does not work the way you want it to work, and if you go into this effort assuming that it does, you will be disappointed.

Thanks for your time.

Although I wonder if it is possible to get a real-time listing of wifi networks in my app without directing the user to adjustments.

It is not.
