November 13, 2012 |

LONDON -- BT today announced that its wi-fi hotspot numbers have passed over 7.5 million across the world, as it launches a new BT Wi-fi access app making it easy to find a wi-fi hotspot in the UK and to login from a Windows Mobile device (www.bt.com/getwifi).

The new app, which will be available on the Windows Phone Store is the fourth BT Wi-fi app to launch. It follows the success of iOS, Android and Blackberry apps, which have now passed over two million downloads by BT Broadband customers.
