It could be the answer to many user’s prayers.
这可能是许多用户一直祈求的东西!
Facebook has launched a new feature to show users where their nearest wifi hotspot is.
Facebook推出了一项新功能,可以显示离用户们最近的WiFi热点。
Called ’Find wi-fi’ it shows users a map with the nearest access points mapped.
这款APP被称之为“Find wi-fi”,能够以地图的形式向用户显示周围的WiFi热点。
’Today we’re beginning to roll out Find Wi-Fi everywhere in the world on iPhone and Android,’ Facebook’s Alex Himel said.
Facebook公司亚历克斯表示称:“从今天起,我们就会在全球推出这款APP,包括苹果和安卓两种版本。”
’We launched Find Wi-Fi in a handful of countries last year and found it’s not only helpful for people who are traveling or on-the-go, but especially useful in areas where cellular data is scarce.’
“去年我们已经在几个国家试运行了这款APP,发现它不仅对那些旅行或者外出的人很有帮助,而且在缺乏数据的地区尤其有用。”
Find Wi-Fi helps you locate available Wi-Fi hot spots nearby that businesses have shared with Facebook from their Page.
“Find Wi-Fi”能够帮助你定位附近可用的WiFi热点,这些热点都是商家企业在其Facebook主页上分享的。
So wherever you are, you can easily map the closest connections when your data connection is weak.
因此,无论你身在何地,当你的数据连接很弱时,你就可以轻松找到周围最近的WiFi。
Once activated, the feature automatically detects places with free Wi-Fi near the user’s location and marks them on their map.
一旦使用这款APP,该功能就会自动检测用户附近的免费WiFi,并在地图上标注出来。
It will list the locations, along with their business hours.
APP将列出WiFi的地点,以及所在商家的营业时间。
Facebook recently began asking Pages associated with business, such as supermarkets and hotels, to list all of the Wi-Fi hotspots at their physical addresses.
Facebook最近开始要求商家(诸如超市和酒店等等)在该网站主页上列出所有WiFi热点的物理地址。
This public information will likely lay the groundwork for the location data that the new feature will draw from.
而这一公共信息则很可能是这款新APP的基础。
The Next Web speculates that Facebook’s push to improve its Live feature may be behind the new service.
据“Next Web”推测,Facebook推动这项新服务的目的可能是为了改善该网站的直播功能。
’The inclusion seems an obvious fit for a network that’s pushing Facebook Live harder than ever,’ it says.
Next Web表示:“这款APP很明显将有力推动Facebook的直播功能。”
’Without a strong internet connection, people have pretty shoddy results when trying to film live video.
“因为如果网络不好的话,观看直播的人体验就会很糟糕。”
’The more nearby locations Facebook can point you to, the better the quality of real-time information sharing, news, and viral-esque video content becomes.
“而如果Facebook可以提供给你更多附近的WiFi热点的话,实时信息共享、新闻、以及现场直播等内容的质量就会变得更好。”
