Is there an app for Android which you can use to connect/hack any Wifi network?

I remember there was an application for the Iphone and Android phones where you can access even locked wifi connections.



Is it still out there?

What is it called?Is there an app for Android which you can use to connect/hack any Wifi network?
I doubt there was any app that could even come close, to hack a good WPA2 password would require a standard very fast computer some 225 - 1000 Years of computing!

I will borrow from this thread http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/unwired/crac鈥?/a>

"Assuming a decent utility is used, a 31 character long password of random upper- and lowercase letters and numbers results in 62^31, or 3.7x10^55 possible combinations. If we assume 60 attempts per second, it will take more that 1.3x10^36 times the age of the universe (15 billion years) to attempt every possible combination. The average time would be half that, or 6.5x10^35 times the age of the universe. Even if someone were to come up with a scheme that reduced the bruteforce time to 1 trillionth of what would be required otherwise, it would still take 6.5x10^23 times the age of the universe. And so on... Unless someone find another way to get the password (e.g., can determine from traffic (like with WEP), beats it out of me, hacks my laptop, etc.), my WAP will remain secure until long after I'm dead. And that's good enough for me. "

Now all that being said, using ANY wifi (even unprotected ones) that is not setup specifically for PUBLIC USE, is illegal and is covered by nearly every state, country, and nations anti hacking laws! "Connecting to a network, without the owners permission" is hacking and you can not connect to a wifi system without connecting to someones network! Don't believe me just check "wifi theft laws" in a search! You will see in some places it is a felony, others a misdemeanor but still illegal.Is there an app for Android which you can use to connect/hack any Wifi network?
This question was pure informational use ONLY. I was not trying to inflict someones privacy or anything of the sort. There was definitly a program out for it that got banned. The purpose of this program was not to hack it, rather then view your "lost" password also for Informational purposes only.

there will not be an android app which can hack any wifi network. perhaps a wep cracking app, which might gain you access to a wep protected wifi network , but not to anything better like wpa/wpa2 psk etc
