One app instead of a dozen. Socketta is a professional network bench for iPhone and iPad: Wi-Fi speed test, LAN scanner, port scanner, ping, HTTP/REST client, WebSocket, MQTT, BLE tools, traceroute and on-device network diagnosis — 25+ tools in a single, focused instrument. WHY SOCKETTA • Replaces a stack of single-purpose apps (network scanner + API tester + MQTT client + BLE scanner + speed test) • No ads. No account. No data collection — everything runs on your device • Fair pricing: a genuinely useful free tier, subscriptions, and a one-time lifetime purchase (no forced subscription) MEASURE • Wi-Fi speed test with an instrument-grade analog gauge (download / upload / latency / jitter / packet loss) • Ping (TCP, custom port), batch ping, traceroute with per-hop latency • Network quality score for gaming, VoIP, video calls and streaming • On-device diagnosis engine: find out why the connection is slow — no cloud, nothing leaves your phone SCAN • LAN device scanner: see every device on your network with vendor and type • Port scanner (parallel), DNS & reverse DNS, mDNS browser • Wake-on-LAN, UPnP/SSDP browser, network topology map, scan diff (spot new devices) • SSL certificate viewer, WHOIS lookup, HTTP header analysis, subnet calculator DEVELOPER BENCH • Full HTTP/REST client: methods, headers, auth, cURL import/export, Postman import, code generation (Swift, Python, JavaScript, Kotlin, PHP, cURL) • WebSocket client, MQTT client, UDP/TCP send & listen, millisecond precision send engine • BLE central & peripheral: scan, connect, read/write/notify, beacons, RSSI radar • Cross-protocol macros, profiles, scheduled tasks, JSON/CSV/TXT export HONEST NOTES • iOS does not expose MAC addresses of other devices to any app; Socketta identifies devices by vendor, hostname and mDNS data instead. • Local-network features require the Local Network permission.
