MobileWiFi is the framework that manages WiFi functionality on iOS. It replaces the obsolete Apple80211 framework.
- Note: Your program needs the com.apple.wifi.manager-access entitlement to use any of the WiFiManager functions.
Retrieving a list of known networks
#include <MobileWiFi.h>
WiFiManagerRef manager = WiFiManagerClientCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault, 0);
CFArrayRef networks = WiFiManagerClientCopyNetworks(manager);
NSLog(@"networks: %@", networks);
CFRelease(manager);
CFRelease(networks);
Getting the WiFi signal strength
#include <math.h>
#include <MobileWiFi.h>
WiFiManagerRef manager = WiFiManagerClientCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault, 0);
CFArrayRef devices = WiFiManagerClientCopyDevices(manager);
WiFiDeviceClientRef client = (WiFiDeviceClientRef)CFArrayGetValueAtIndex(devices, 0);
CFDictionaryRef data = (CFDictionaryRef)WiFiDeviceClientCopyProperty(client, CFSTR("RSSI"));
CFNumberRef scaled = (CFNumberRef)WiFiDeviceClientCopyProperty(client, kWiFiScaledRSSIKey);
CFNumberRef RSSI = (CFNumberRef)CFDictionaryGetValue(data, CFSTR("RSSI_CTL_AGR"));
int raw;
CFNumberGetValue(RSSI, kCFNumberIntType, &raw);
float strength;
CFNumberGetValue(scaled, kCFNumberFloatType, &strength);
CFRelease(scaled);
strength *= -1;
// Apple uses -3.0.
int bars = (int)ceilf(strength * -3.0f);
bars = MAX(1, MIN(bars, 3));
printf("WiFi signal strength: %d dBm\n\t Bars: %d\n", raw, bars);
CFRelease(data);
CFRelease(scaled);
CFRelease(devices);
CFRelease(manager);
Scanning for nearby networks
#include <MobileWiFi.h>
static WiFiManagerRef _manager;
static void scan_callback(WiFiDeviceClientRef device, CFArrayRef results, CFErrorRef error, void *token);
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
_manager = WiFiManagerClientCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault, 0);
CFArrayRef devices = WiFiManagerClientCopyDevices(_manager);
if (!devices) {
fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't get WiFi devices. Bailing.\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
WiFiDeviceClientRef client = (WiFiDeviceClientRef)CFArrayGetValueAtIndex(devices, 0);
WiFiManagerClientScheduleWithRunLoop(_manager, CFRunLoopGetCurrent(), kCFRunLoopDefaultMode);
WiFiDeviceClientScanAsync(client, (CFDictionaryRef)[NSDictionary dictionary], scan_callback, 0);
CFRelease(devices);
CFRunLoopRun();
return 0;
}
static void scan_callback(WiFiDeviceClientRef device, CFArrayRef results, CFErrorRef error, void *token)
{
NSLog(@"Finished scanning! networks: %@", results);
WiFiManagerClientUnscheduleFromRunLoop(_manager);
CFRelease(_manager);
CFRunLoopStop(CFRunLoopGetCurrent());
}
