BTBerryWifi
What is it about?
The BTBerryWifi app connects to your Headless Raspberry Pi via bluetooth, and allows you to select a wifi networks seen by your Raspberry Pi, using a simple wifi connection screen. The app displays the network strength, and whether the wifi network is locked (encoded) or open. If locked, it prompts you for the network's password (key). You can also connect to hidden SSID network (if you know it). Any network you connect to is saved on the raspberry pi for future re-use. This is ideal if you bring your headless Raspberry Pi to a new location or if you change your home router for example. There is no need to connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse to your Raspberry Pi. Simply fire up the iPhone app, connect to a raspberry pi and set its wifi network.
