Wi-Fi

The Wi-Fi plugin allows you to explore the information on detected and saved Wi-Fi connections.

 

NOTE: This plugin is only available for iOS 7.x.x - 13 backups of the following types: iCloud, iClous sync, and iTunes (encrypted, not encrypted, and backups with restored and not restored file names).

 

When opening the plugin, you have an option to download the locations and addresses of the Wi-Fi connections. Please note that the Internet connection is required to get the locations and addresses for the first time. After the Wi-Fi location data is downloaded, it is saved to local cache.
