Used to be useful, now ads
I regret updating the app, which now includes links everywhere to upgrade to premium. It used to be a mediocre app for limited network testing. Now it’s just a less useful advertisement for upgrading to premium.
Ads now!? And Devs say they have an ad free version now which expects you to pay a SUBSCRIPTION!? You want to offer an ad free product for a low one-time fee (i.e. $1-$2) then great. I don’t know of any mobile app that deserves ongoing charges. None that I’m willing to pay for ... Prior Review: This app used to be a useful tool. However since Apple apparently changed how MAC addresses can be used I do not find this app useful anymore. Its not the Dev’s fault, but it does render this app fairly useless for my purpose. Not being able to map unknown devices via their MACs is unfortunate. If the Devs can somehow update their app to provide this functionality I’d be willing to update my review.Show lessRaptor Hawk

We are sad to know that your experience on the app was not satisfactory. Please share your issue and feedback with us at support@fing.com as we are always looking to improve the User experience. ThanksCan’t Find Camera
I like the app and think it’s beneficial and the desktop is amazing and accurate I believe for the most part. But the developers boast about how many cameras they have been found, but every time I check, it says no camera. But I have a hidden camera on my network and it doesn’t even register it. i’ve had this app for a while so I’ve scanned my network many times and still no camera. That is a security issue hence the three stars.Show lessK.W. Martin
The app it’s excellent
I really like this app compare with others but the only thing I sign in my Mac and won’t let install but well buy the app see how it’s going to worked it’s excellent I know how many devices are connected and who it’s my network but the only issue it’s in my Mac I got in my iPad and also in my phone but thank you any for this app I will sign for the year unless they help me with the support that’s for the developer thank youShow lessChubbie5
Cameras not detected.
I downloaded this app when staying in an airbnb just to feel reassured by whether or not the house had cameras. The scan said no cameras were detected. Which made me feel better BUT, I have 2 ring cameras at home and I decided to do a scan when I got back home. It also showed no hidden cameras found on my network.. That just tells me there very well could have been in that house that didn’t show up. The app will show connected devices but if you’re downloading to find hidden cameras, I probably wouldn’t trust it.
Cameras are running on my WiFi, otherwise they wouldn’t work?Show lessAshleyWilham1

Hi, Ashley. Are your ring cameras connected to your wifi? If not, our app won't be able to detect themAdd a signal strength meter
I love the app no doubt it is the best so far but the mobile version of the app should have a panel for checking the signal strength from the router to your mobile device, the feature is present on the Macbook or desktop app but not on the mobile app, Please include it, it would be very helpful,keep up the good work Thank you!Show lessZedXInfinity
stay away
You buy a thing box and they will never leave you alone….Always hounding you to upgrade to their premium service in the matter how many times you want subscribe it doesn’t work so stay away from these people… And they don’t respond to text messages or emails eitherFat Goalie
Bring back “people” tab or the groupings please.
I love this app. But please revert to the old version where you’re able to see the profiles you created on the Home Screen of the app. It’s hard to find the device groups or “people” tab on the app now. I’ll definitely give it a 5 star once that issue is fixed. Everything else works pretty wellRubbertoe3213
Terrible
The app has barely worked. I canceled before my 24 he mark and I was still charged $7! I have continued to go in to the app after updating and restarting my phone and all that good stuff and the app still will only allow me to click RESTORE and does not give me the option to cancel. What a joke . I read the reviews… they looked good so I figured what the heck. I will give it a try. Only wanted to see if it was a legit camera in a store in the women’s bathroom. But the app was of really no help. I would love if some one could now refund my $6.99 that I have been charged TWICE!Show lessLeasha:-)
Really helps me
I use this to see the IP address of my Raspberry Pi. Makes it so much easier because I take it with me traveling as a portable Plex Server. Useful because the IP address of the Pi can change at any time. This way I can either SSH into it or pull up Plex in my web browser without problem. Helpful when running updates or adding content via Samba through Wi-Fi. Best of all, free!Show lessandiamo71
My go to app for my local network scans
So far used every feature and really like the monitoring feature as well. Personally only need that in trouble WAN(internet) situations when for example a particular ISP says that everything is top-notch or their not having problems with latency or DNS servers always rebooting or going offline for hours… it does come in handy I use multi tools usually like solar winds toolset. I’m a more tech user familiar with advanced network engineering… so I’m just a lil more fluent than most but tools like this make things easy I. My opinion for the norm individual to know some key concepts and basics. EZ in EZ out and KISS PRINCIPLE (keep it simple stupid)Show lessjasondotnet
