About

IPMask

This utility helps calculate IP network addresses and subnetworks for IPv4. It assists in understanding IP addressing functions like host identification and location addressing within a network. The tool is useful for dividing networks into smaller subnetworks through subnetting.

Highlights
  • IP network address calculation
  • Subnetwork subdivision
  • Host identification
  • Location addressing
  • IPv4 support

IPMask works out an IPv4 network from an address and a mask: network and broadcast address, first and last host, number of hosts, netmask and wildcard. • Type the address the way you have it: 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.1/22 or with a dotted mask. • Move the mask slider and watch the 32 bits split into the network part and the host part. • See the address type at a glance: private, public, loopback, link-local, multicast. • Switch to the binary view to see the address, netmask and network bit by bit. • Copy the whole result as text or share it. • On Apple Watch: enter an address with a keypad, turn the Digital Crown to set the prefix and read the result on your wrist. /31 point-to-point links (RFC 3021) and /32 host routes are handled correctly. Made for network engineers, students and anyone who sets up a router at home. The app works offline; it needs a connection only for the small ad banner.

VeinScan

VeinScan turns your iPhone camera into a live vein visualiser. It analyses every frame, recombines the colour channels into a narrow synthetic wavelength band, and boosts local contrast - so the veins beneath the skin stand out clearly on screen. HOW IT WORKS A camera sees the world through wide red, green and blue channels. VeinScan mixes those channels into a much narrower band that you tune yourself, anywhere from 500 to 1000 nm. It then flattens uneven lighting, applies adaptive local contrast enhancement, and filters out fine hair, leaving a high-contrast live map of the vessels under the skin. PIN IT IN PLACE WITH AR Found a good view? Tap ANCHOR and the enhanced image is pinned in 3D space, right over the arm. Built on ARKit - and on the LiDAR scanner where the device has one - the anchored image stays locked in position while you move the phone around it and look from another angle. Optional hand tracking follows the limb if it shifts. FEATURES - Live spectral enhancement, tunable from 500 to 1000 nm - Four view modes: Normal, Spectrum, Inverse and Vessels - Adjustable bandwidth, contrast, illumination flattening and hair filtering - AR anchoring - pin the enhanced image in 3D space and walk around it - Hand tracking keeps anchors aligned when the limb moves - LiDAR depth and surface fitting on supported devices - Exposure bracketing for steady shots - Torch control, freeze frame, zoom and adjustable overlay opacity - Collapsible control panel for a full-screen preview - English and Hungarian PLEASE READ VeinScan is an experimental visualisation tool. It is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, measure or treat anything, and it is not intended for any clinical or diagnostic use. What you see is a contrast-enhanced camera image, and how well it works depends a great deal on lighting, skin tone and which iPhone you are using. Never rely on it for a medical decision. PRIVACY Everything runs on the device. VeinScan has no account, needs no network connection, and never collects, stores or transmits your images or any personal data.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: VeinScan at none against IPMask's shown. IPMask's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
