See this device’s network path, find advertised local services, and test a connection to a host you choose. Discover web, printer, AirPlay, Google Cast and workstation services advertised on your local network for 10 seconds. Up to 256 resolved services are retained. Test one hostname or IP address on specific ports. Each attempt stops after 3 seconds. Only test devices and services you are allowed to access. Read response headers with normal certificate validation. Redirects are shown without following them. No response body is downloaded. Some servers do not support HEAD requests. iOS does not expose nearby Wi-Fi access-point lists, signal strength or channel scans to this app. An available network path does not guarantee internet access. Discovery lists advertised services, not all devices. TCP timing measures a connection handshake, not ICMP ping or internet speed. Connection details, local discovery, diagnostics, saved reports and text, CSV and JSON exports remain free. Reports, addresses and notes stay on this device unless you share them. System backups may include saved reports. Connection tests contact only the host or URL you choose; no packet traffic is captured. The latest 100 saved reports stay on this device. Save or share important reports before older ones leave the history. Annual Pro removes ads and adds PDF export of your network reports. Payment is charged to your Apple account after confirmation. The subscription renews automatically each year unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel it in your Apple subscription settings.
