A limitation in Android 10 and later prevents apps like Locale from toggling Wi-Fi. Similarly, a limitation in Android 13 and later prevents apps from toggling Bluetooth. To work around this, a separate free “Helper” app was compiled to run in Android 9 backwards compatibility mode.

The Helper must be downloaded from our website, because Google Play won’t allow apps running in backwards compatibility mode.

  1. Download the Locale X Helper

    1. From within Google Chrome, follow this link: Download Locale X Helper

    2. After the download completes, tap the Open button

    3. Confirm installing apps from outside of Google Play
