Abstract

A Wireless Fidelity network scanning method and a mobile device are provided. The method includes: obtaining, by a mobile device, information about a distance between a location of the mobile device at a first time point and a location of the mobile device at a second time point, where the first time point is a time point later than the second time point; determining, by the mobile device, that the information about the distance is less than a first distance threshold, and adjusting a first scanning frequency at which the mobile device scans a WiFi network to a second scanning frequency, where the second scanning frequency is less than the first scanning frequency; and scanning, by the mobile device, the WiFi network according to the second scanning frequency.
