### 4/5 — Me on my iPhone 15 PRO MAX

*2026-08-03, version 2.4.1*

Sometimes it just glitches every time when I scan the network

### 4/5 — Hmmm? 🤔😳🤨

*2026-07-22, version 2.4.1*

I got this to see who was on the house WiFi. 
Lots of ‘Unknown Devices’ many of which are devices in the house anyway. New review here, surprisingly this was a prob years back Guys? 
I have a snippet of the information I really needed! 
But hey, I find it quite ironic that you have found a very old nickname? 
Is this FB spreading out, just as it SHOULDN’T!? Me thinks yes! 
I’m asking nicely, not to let me down regarding this WiFi Guard. 
I need it to PROTECT ME, not give others a ‘window in’! 
So hmmmmm for now… 🤔🤨🙏

### 2/5 — Crashed on IOS

*2026-01-08, version 2.4.1*

Cant get it working, crashed on first touch.

### 4/5 — Best so far

*2025-12-06, version 2.4.1*

Really helpful and easy to use. Only hoping that future updates to the app may include the features that allow one to block unwanted devices that connect to the wifi

### 3/5 — Works well

*2025-10-21, version 2.4.1*

But would’ve been better if the app can block the devices that connected

### 3/5 — Renames devices at random

*2025-10-04, version 2.4.1*

I like the app to see who’s on my wifi, but I have taken the time a couple of times to name devices based on their IP addresses and every time they all randomly change to the same name… like MyiPad. I say randomly because I have no idea what triggers this. 
Please address this issue!

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2025-08-05, version 2.4.1*

But it's quite annoying that on some devices there is an questionmark and the name is set as unknown

### 5/5 — Excelente!

*2025-06-06, version 2.4.1*

Wonderfull!

### 2/5 — Won’t auto-start

*2025-05-14, version 2.4.1*

It’s a great idea and would be awesome if it auto-started; that way I could work out what belongs to my home and when some loser tries to join my network. Sadly that’s not possible, no matter what I the ‘Want to protect this network’ button always switches itself back off.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2025-02-26, version 2.4.1*

it does exactly what it says it does and the longest part was downloading the app it’s very easy to use.

### 4/5 — There’s still room for improvement. 4/5

Yuy

### 1/5 — Doesn’t do what it says

*2026-07-08, version 2.4.1*

I got this app so I could scan and protect my home WiFi Network. It provides details about devices connected and asked if I want to know how to block the devices. I click on it and it says to change my password or contact my Internet Service Provider. Why doesn’t it give me the option to block devices like other reviews say? The only thing this app does is list devices. That is it! Why? How does that protect my Internet from intruders? Very disappointed!

### 1/5 — Chuncfh

*2026-05-12, version 2.4.1*

I can’t block outHacker

### 1/5 — President

*2026-03-12, version 2.4.1*

I have support saying at the White House the administration president George the peso bush is getting hung

### 1/5 — All same name

*2025-09-21, version 2.4.1*

After renaming 30+ devices to their correct names, the app decided they all were my laptop. Completely useless. Deleting app

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-09-30, version 2.4.1*

I am totally blind here, and I always enjoy a tool that’s easy to use and doesn’t try to dazzle me with eye candy that I can’t see. So far, it’s simple, easy, and tells me what I need to know without adding extraneous information. However, one small item: you guys might want to consider making sure that it’s completely compatible with the Apple’s accessibility API. Just a thought.

### 5/5 — Впросак
