Android getWifiNetworks not providing latest available networks.

Open sardanadeepak opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Hello There, I am facing a problem, the getWifiNetworks is not providing latest available wifi networks. I have to go to phone wifi settings and if the new devices are available there then only its giving that results. Its a weird thing I am not able to see latest available devices which I want to connect from my app.

Thank you for any advice in advance

getWifiNetworks function has a param which forces the device to do a rescan

I already used that param but getting the same results. Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong?

const wifiNetworks = await TetheringManager.getWifiNetworks(true);

Which android version are you using? Did you grant all required permissions?

Which android version are you using? Did you grant all required permissions?

I am using android 12 and 13 for testing.

And these are the permissions which I am giving. android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> android:name="android.permission.NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICES" /> android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" /> android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE" /> android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" /> android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE" />
