Sprint Connections Optimizer
The Sprint Connections Optimizer is a tool that automatically selects the best mobile network for
your phone, including "remembered" Wi-Fi networks.
About Sprint Connections Optimizer
The Sprint Connections Optimizer helps you manage and enhance your data experience by finding
and connecting to "remembered" Wi-Fi networks on your phone. Remembered Wi-Fi networks are
networks with which you have previously chosen to connect. Active Wi-Fi connections may offer
improved performance and generally improve battery life while allowing you to talk on the phone and
use data at the same time.
The Sprint Connections Optimizer works by searching for available "remembered" Wi-Fi networks. If
you do not leave your Wi-Fi antenna on all the time, you will only notice the Sprint Connections
Optimizer operating at certain times of the day in a small number of locations on the Sprint network.
Your Wi-Fi antenna will conserve battery by scanning for connections periodically (not continuously),
and if no connection is achieved, the antennas will be turned off. You may also manually turn the
antennas off during the scan period.
To facilitate quality assurance and enable feature enhancements, information is collected about your
battery levels, Wi-Fi and Sprint Network connections, and usage. No personal information is
collected.
