Along with the "WIFI on/off toggle," can there be a checkbox to make sure WIFI never turns off and is guaranteed to be in the active state?

  Hi Steve,
  Currently, we do not have the option to keep the "WIFI never turns off" option. But, I will be happy to pass your suggestions to the product team.

  After doing substantial testing, I just sent another request to support regarding erratic WIFI operation as the WIFI does not reconnect. It is both reproducible and random. Very concerning and disappointing. Since WIFI is central to using this product, this is unacceptable.

  For example, if your mobile phone only randomly connected to your home WIFI you would not be pleased (you would be really upset) and as an Android device KAROO should have dependable WIFI that reconnects to known WIFI networks. Please get this fixed. Honestly, for me this is a deal breaker.

  PLEASE allow wifi to be left on permanently, or at least set to on/off by profile. Having to re-enable wifi every time I go for a ride so that it uses my iPhone hotspot for live tracking is ridiculous.

  Let the user decide how much battery to use.
