Did not function

The preview images look good but I could not get this app to function.

Superb Wi-Fi analyzer for the money!!!

I ended up buying two of the hardware units (together they can do a lot more measurements then with only one hardware analyzer). The combination of both this iOS app when coupled with the hardware is a killer combination.

The criticisms of the hardware are that it only works up to the 802.11ac standard and NOT the newer 802.11ax standard. However, if you have the hardware, it is a superb Wi-Fi measurement system.

The negative feedback is from people whom don’t read the documentation and whom expect a true Wi-Fi analyzer but for 100% free. Sorry, but the age old saying is true, i.e., “...you get what you pay for...”.

It is totally unfair to download a free app like this without reading up on it first to see if any hardware is required to make it work and then after they discover this they leave negative feedback since they desired something like this for free. As another age old saying goes: “...you can’t fix stupid...” I strongly recommend others disregard negative feedback comments on this app based on such baseless feedback.

By the way, I also own. Metageek Wi-Fi analyzer too (another great Wi-Fi analyzer).

Uses $2,2250 test device needlessly

This functionality is available on the windows 10 store app for free any windows 10 tablet can use the WiFi analyser program to scan from tablet or desktop that has built in wifi no need for expensive devices aimed at stupid it departments who dont know better and have too much money to impress a thick boss . Sorry

Useless Garbage

Hasn’t been updated in years. Probably not what you’re looking for in the first place doesn’t matter either way you need to pay more and register etc etc etc.

Unless you know you need this it’s a wasted download and even then it barely still works.

Buy Metageek

An app which used the built in WiFi adapter to collect SSIDs, channels, and signal strengths, would be worth paying for.

An app which was last updated 3 years ago and rests on its laurels while expecting you to buy expensive hardware, is asking a bit much of credulous buyers.

If I’m going to buy hardware to permit my iPad to collect detailed WiFi information, I’ll buy from Metageek, who update their software more frequently. I already own a WiSpy for Mac/PC, and am satisfied with it. If I really need the same for the iPad, I’ll buy their hardware. It’s cheaper, too.

Loaded then deleted.

Not obvious from the description but this app requires you to have additional hardware before it will do anything.

Junk

This app does not do what it claims

Not user friendly...

Not made to be used stand alone, may require $ to do anything...

This app requires a hardware device purchase

This app requires you to purchase a hardware device, it CANNOT use your iPhone or IPad WiFi to even test for WiFi’s seen and chat channel they are using or their signal strength.

Without the hardware purchase it DOES NOTHING, it should be renamed WFED-300AC partner app. Then no expectation would be created and no disappointment and no bad reviews.

Do not waste your time downloading, I did because last negative review was 4 years old, so please mark this review as helpful so less people make the same mistake.

It is sad that I can get an app that does the things shown in photos of this app on a laptop but not on an iPad.

Not a standalone app.

The app doesn’t work standalone. You need to have other scanners purchased and register with the app.

Works great!

This app works EXACTLY as advertised, which means it WILL NOT work without the hardware it is designed to work with. I’m using it in a security environment to troubleshoot problems with customer WiFi setups and it has already proved invaluable. Don’t believe any of the reviews that say it doesn’t work.

NEEDs OTHER DEVICE.

Don’t bother installing as it cannot do anything...

Strange app

You have to register network interfaces. I am sure they charge for it.

doesn’t really work

I see a load of options but it. Doesn’t actually work lol and no guide.

WiFi Advisor

Poorly written. Don’t waste your $...

Junk

Waste of time, other reviews are accurate too

Not even sure this is meant to analyse wifi

As others have said, don’t bother.

Absolutely rubbish

Don’t bother

Useless

Wish I had read all the other reviews first.

It seems like this app was made to be used only within the developer’s company
