I used to use and love this app and recommend it to others. Not a thing I need often but when I do, it's great. Or at least it was. Now I get prompted every time I open it to pay for a subscription. I am a firm believer in paying for tools and I don't mind a subscription for something I use all the time. Something I need a couple times a year? Not so much. I'd purchase a one-time version that limits the number of scans or some other sort of reasonable limit for a very light user. Now the latest version says I have to get the desktop version simply to view the MAC address for a device. I only have it installed until I can post this review and then I am off to search for (and then purchase) a tool I can actually use.Show lessDon’t get the subscription
I’m not to sure how the app was like 4 years ago but it sound loads better that what I’m paying for now. I originally paid for it to help me figure out who and what’s on my private network and it never really worked to well. I ended up just dropping the whole idea of a private network within my own home that I share with 7 other non family people and now I have to allow someone else to see what I do on my Internet service that everyone just uses because I change the passwords and in a few days they’re all on the same network when I had a private network it was easy but this app all of a sudden doesn’t let me see who is getting into my network or letting me block their access. I would very much enjoy the ability to at least boot someone from my personal network and keep them off would be amazing and also find out when I’m being spied on as well so helpful maybe I should get one of them boxes but I’m not sureShow lessCan’t even complete speed test…
Just installed this app today thinking this would help detect issues that might appear on my network but it won’t even run a basic speed test. I’m surprised this app has such a high rating when a basic function (speed test) doesn’t work. Detects ping speed, destination and provider but never displays a speed. Get two accordion type spinning circles that are gray and green but it never completes the test. Waited for more than five minutes, still nothing. Speed test is a basic function that should work. Also the basic network scan comes up with very little information on the devices it finds. My router provides more info. I’m certainly not paying money for something that provide less information than my home router.Show less
