The FRITZ!App Wi-Fi offers a clear overview of all access points in the home network and notifies about available FRITZ!OS updates for your FRITZ! devices. The FRITZ!App Wi-Fi makes it possible recognize whether your iOS device is connected with the FRITZ!Box via a FRITZ! Repeater or a FRITZ!Powerline adapter. Use the "Measure WiFi" function to evaluate the wireless LAN at various locations in your home network and find out where there might be a WiFi coverage hole. The "My Repeaters > Evaluate Repeater Position" function checks the quality of the connection between your FRITZ!Box and your FRITZ!Repeater. If the connection quality is suboptimal, you will be directed to position your FRITZ!Repeater further from or closer to your FRITZ!Box. Click "My Repeaters > Configure New Repeater" for instructions on establishing a connection, and on finding the ideal position to improve the configuration of your home network. Minimum requirement: - iOS version 15 or newer - FRITZ!IOS 06.50 or newer Comments on "Measure WiFi": measuring can increase the home network traffic. This could impair connection speeds between other devices in the network (for instance, reduced video streaming quality).

WiFiMaster tells you whether to trust a network before you put your work on it. You just joined an Airbnb, a hotel, a coffee shop. A couple of taps tells you whether the Wi-Fi can carry real work, what else is on the network, and how much your connection gives away. No account. No analytics. Your data never leaves your device. THE ARRIVAL PROTOCOL: Every new network, three questions. Can I actually work here? Run a speed test the second you connect: download, upload, latency, and jitter, so you know the Wi-Fi can carry a video call before you start one. Measured against Rimrock's own servers, not a mystery box. What else is on this network? Scan it with Bonjour and port scanning. Your devices sit next to everyone else's, laid out so the odd one out is easy to spot: an unknown computer, a camera named like it watches the inside. How much does this connection give away? WiFiMaster drops the location the internet guesses from your IP onto a map, next to where you actually are, then says in plain words how exposed you are. It's also a fast way to confirm a VPN moved you. ALSO IN THE BOX Connection details at a glance: IP, DNS, gateway, and status, without digging through Settings. Device detail: drill into anything on the network to identify what it is and where it lives, so a stranger on the LAN doesn't stay a stranger. BUILT FOR EACH PLATFORM WiFiMaster is a native app on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro. Not a web view, not one layout stretched to fit: each version is built for the platform it runs on. PRIVACY An app that helps you spot surveillance had better not be surveilling you. No account, no analytics, no trackers. The privacy policy is short enough to actually read. Built by Rimrock Systems in Payson, Arizona. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict

The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

WiFi Analyzer holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FRITZ!App Wi has 5.9K ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of FRITZ!App Wi's written reviews are positive against 0% of WiFi Analyzer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FRITZ!App Wi ships an update every 6 weeks, WiFi Analyzer fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
