Google Fi Wireless App for Android

Google Fi Wireless (version V167-allabi-universal) is Google's app for customers of Google Fi, the company's mobile phone service. It is used to activate a phone on Fi, watch data usage, pay bills, manage the plan and get support. The app is free, and Fi customers can download Google Fi Wireless for Android from Google Play.

What is Google Fi?

Google Fi is a mobile carrier service run by Google. It provides calls, texts and data on compatible phones, with plans managed entirely online and in the app. More about the service is on Google Fi's about page.

What can I do in the app?

• Activate a new phone or eSIM on your Fi plan.
• See how much data you have used and set alerts.
• View bills, change payment methods and switch plans.
• Manage group plan members and their permissions.
• Check settings for travelling abroad.
• Contact support through chat or callback.

Do I need it if I am not a Fi customer?

No. Without a Google Fi account the app has no purpose. If you are considering Fi, check whether it is available where you live and whether your phone is compatible before switching.

How do I install and activate?

1. Install the app from the Google Fi page on Google Play.
2. Sign in with the Google account linked to your Fi plan.
3. Follow the activation steps for a SIM card or eSIM.
4. Keep the app updated; it receives regular improvements.

The app is about 21.41 MB according to catalogue data.

What about VPN by Google?

Google offers a VPN to some Fi customers on eligible Android phones, managed through the phone's settings and the Fi app. Requirements depend on the Android version and device, as described in Google's help pages. It encrypts traffic on public networks but, like any VPN, does not make you anonymous.

How do I check data usage while travelling?

Open the app before a trip to confirm international settings, then watch the usage screen while abroad. Setting a data alert helps avoid surprises, and turning off automatic app updates on mobile data keeps usage under control.

Is my account safe?

Your phone number is valuable to attackers, who may try to move it to their own SIM to intercept verification codes. Turn on two-step verification for your Google account, review security settings in the Fi app, and never share verification codes with callers claiming to be support.
