Share your Android device’s Internet connection with other devices without needing Root.
TetherFi works by creating a Wi-Fi Direct legacy group and an HTTP proxy server. Devices can connect to the broadcasted WiFi network by locating the Wi-Fi SSID displayed in the application and using the password. Once connected to the network, a device can connect to the Internet by setting it’s proxy server settings to the server created by TetherFi.
Please note that TetherFi is still a work in progress and not everything will work. For example, using TetherFi to get an open NAT type on consoles is currently not possible. General "normal" internet browsing should work fine - however it is dependent on the speed and availability of your Android device’s internet connection.
Privacy
TetherFi respects your privacy. TetherFi is open source, and always will be. TetherFi will never track you, or sell or share your data. TetherFi offers in-app purchases which you may purchase to support the developer. These purchases are never required to use the application or any features.
Development
TetherFi is developed in the open on GitHub. If you know a few things about Android programming and are wanting to help out with development you can do so by creating issue tickets to squash bugs, and propose feature requests for future inclusion.
Anti-Features: NonFreeComp(the application includes non-free components):
⇒ The app includes non-free Google libraries (BillingClient, Google Mobile Services, Google Play Core).NonFreeNet(this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
⇒ The app connects to Google services (billing).
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).

Libraries:
- Android Support v4 (Development Framework)
The Android Support Library is not actually a single library, but rather a collection of libraries that can roughly be divided into two groups: compatibility and component libraries. For details, please see Understanding the Android Support Library.
- AndroidX Activity (Utility)
provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.
- Android Jetpack Annotations (Utility)
library that contains the annotations for Android Jetpack.
- Arch (Utility)
helper for other arch dependencies, including JUnit test rules that can be used with LiveData.
- AppCompat (Utility)
support newer Android features on older Android versions.
- Android Support Library collections (Utility)
standalone efficient collections.
- Jetpack Compose (Development Framework)
a framework to define UIs programmatically with composable functions that describe its shape and data dependencies.
- Concurrent (Utility)
AndroidX library to help move tasks off the main thread with coroutines and take advantage of ListenableFuture.
- Androidx Core (Utility)
a static library that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or utility APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs.
- Android Support Library Custom View (UI Component)
a module to implement custom views. Part of the Android Support Library.
- Android Emoji2 Compat (UI Component)
core library to enable emoji compatibility in Kitkat and newer devices to avoid the empty emoji characters.
- Exifinterface (Utility)
a library to read and write image file EXIF tags.
- AndroidX Fragment (UI Component)
AndroidX library to encapsulate part of the user interface or behavior into reusable components.
- Androidx Graphics (Utility)
leverages graphics facilities across multiple Android platform releases.
- Interpolator (UI Component)
AndroidX library to use animation interpolators on older platforms.
- Lifecycle (Utility)
perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
- Loader (Utility)
library to load data for your UI that survives configuration changes.
- Preference (Utility)
a library to build interactive settings screens without needing to interact with device storage or manage the UI.
- ProfileInstaller (Utility)
AndroidX library that enables libraries to prepopulate ahead of time compilation traces to be read by ART.
- Recyclerview (Utility)
display large sets of data in your UI while minimizing memory usage.
- Android Activity Saved State (Utility)
provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.
- Startup (Utility)
AndroidX library to implement a straightforward, performant way to initialize components at app startup.
- Tracing (Utility)
AndroidX library to write trace events to the system trace buffer.
- Vectordrawable (UI Component)
AndroidX library to render vector graphics.
- Android Jetpack VersionedParcelable (Utility)
Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.
- Coil (Utility)
an image loading library for Android backed by Kotlin Coroutines.
- Accompanist (Utility)
a collection of extension libraries for Jetpack Compose.
- Firebase Data TransportⓃ (Utility)
Firebase Data Transport is part of Google’s Firebase SDK.
- Google Mobile Services© (Development Framework)
Google Mobile Services in terms of the Android library refers to Google Play Services, a proprietary background service and API package for Android devices which is not part of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). The library does not contain those services (i.e. it usually requires the Google Framework, often referred to as „GApps“, being installed on the device), but allows an app to communicate with them. Be aware this usually goes along with transferring at least parts of your personal data to the Google network.
- Google Play CoreⓃ© (Utility)
runtime interface with the Google Play Store.
- FirebaseⓃ© (Utility)
- pydroid (Utility)

This process, known as dependency injection, is beneficial to most nontrivial applications.
- Kotlin (Utility)
The Kotlin Programming Language
- kotlinx.coroutines (Utility)
library support for Kotlin coroutines.
- OkHttp okio Framework (Utility)
A modern I/O API for Java to make it much easier to access, store, and process your data.
