Look for the Logo
The Wi-Fi CERTIFIED logo sets products apart. Our seal of approval indicates all the
ingredients of a good user experience: Proven interoperability, industry-standard security
protections, and the latest Wi-Fi technology. We have certified more than 25,000 products
since 2000, and we are just getting started.
Our certification program and logo are at the heart of Wi-Fi’s worldwide success in
computing, handsets, and multimedia. Wi-Fi is one of the world’s most loved technologies —
an indispensable part of our daily lives. Wi-Fi has a massive installed base of more than
four and a half billion products, growing to nine billion in 2019.1 Wi-Fi continues to extend its
reach into a variety of segments, building on its nearly ubiquitous adoption
in smartphones, tablets, and laptop computers with a growing presence in automotive,
smart home, and health devices. As Wi-Fi connects a growing range of smart home gadgets
and industrial things, Wi-Fi CERTIFIED will continue to be a critical designator of product
quality and compatibility.

network of companies that brings you Wi-Fi. The members of our collaboration forum
come from across the Wi-Fi ecosystem and share a common vision of connecting everyone
and everything, everywhere. Since 2000, the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED seal of approval designates
products with proven interoperability, industry-standard security protections, and the latest
technology. Wi-Fi Alliance has certified more than 25,000 products, delivering the best user
experience and encouraging the expanded use of Wi-Fi products and services in new and
established markets. Today, billions of Wi-Fi products carry a significant portion of the
world’s data traffic in an ever-expanding variety of applications.
This report has been prepared without audit from the books and records of Wi-Fi Alliance. The information in this report is given as of the date specified and Wi-Fi Alliance assumes no responsibility

2015. Statements concerning 2015 are forward-looking statements; they are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and
changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from these expectations and assumptions due to changes in global political, economic,
business, technological, market, regulatory and other factors. Management undertakes no obligation publicly to update or review any forward-looking information whether as a result of new
