Can’t find under settings

Downloaded but it is not under settings. It just an app that when it opens it starts searching and nothing happens. Tried to contact support but ….

Wifi Channels; Great Utility Tool

Allows you to scan wifi channels to find the best signals/latencies for your home network.

Thank you

iOS settings > apps > AirPort Utility > Toggle on "WiFi Scanner"

Thank you so much for this. Please, for the love of WiFi, please update this with a live signal graph. This is the only app in the app store that let's me see what channel to choose for my router (the channel least saturated by other routers). A live signal graph would be a godsend. How does this not just come with iOS?

Junk

Does nothing but ads

Do not remove this app

Please do not remove. Some of us still use Airport routers.

Do not delete this app.

Please don’t terminate this app on iOS. We still need for our sound system settings for Airplay. Just leave it!!!!!

The reliable standard to get the most out of an Apple Airport

Easiest to understand and best tool to configure Apple Airports

Underrated

For free? Seriously? πŸ™ nice

Cannot scan wifi

On the iPad version without any AirPort devices, you can scan WiFi to determine signal strength. On the iPhone version, this is not available; at least for me without any airport devices.

Poor

Doesn’t seem to work any more - won’t see the base station. πŸ˜”

πŸ›œWaiting For The ComebackπŸ›œ

Greetings Tim and the Apple Team,

Here we are in the year 2026. If you want to own the smart home then you gotta build Airport Pro!

Come on Apple, can you imagine how magical this could be? All my Airport Access Points are still going strong after all these years but us diehard Airport users deserve a revolutionary hardware and App refresh. We’re ready to throw down the money if you deliver, LFG!!! πŸ›œπŸ§΅πŸ€“

Apple, please get back into consumer network hardware. πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Shows Wifi Channels

This is the ONLY App in the App store that shows which channel the networks around you are using. Playstore has β€œWifi Analyzer” that shows so much, but this at least shows the bare minimum you need to help you select the best channels for your router. Setup permissions in settings to allow Wi-fi scan first and you’ll be good to go.

Useless

I don’t get what the point of this is. It’s just a dark/grey screen with a world on it, that just sits there doing nothing. No buttons, no menu, no options, no links. How many years am I supposed to sit staring at it wait for it to DO anything or give me ANY options? It’s telling me I need an airport hub. Nowhere online do I find where this app requires a hub. Again, what is the point of a blank screen app that does ….. nothing?

Please add 6 GHz scanning

Since apple removed all wifi scanners from the App Store except their own, this is the only one available to use. Minimal interface, missing 6GHz scanning

Completely useless

Can’t diagnose details of connection errors or automatically fix them.

Old eye can’t read results

Terrible display contrast , white background with small light grey lettering?

Still useful

The easiest way to monitor since I have 1 Airport Extreme and 2 A Express…. flawless

Missing Functions

Didn't realize until yesterday that the IOS app doesn't have all the features of the Mac app meaning that unless you have a Mac, you cannot completely administer an old Airport Extreme router.

Wasn't worried about my ancient Macbook dying since I've been able to use my Iphone for everything I needed until now.

Can you please at least add the few left out features of the Mac app to the IOS app?
