BSSID SCAN vs DFIR Toolkit
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
BSSID SCAN
This utility app helps you easily copy BSSIDs (Basic Service Set Identifiers) of nearby Wi-Fi networks. It's designed for users who need to quickly access and utilize this network information.
- Remember BSSIDs
- Copy BSSIDs
- Access Wi-Fi settings
- Useful for network identification

BSSIDScan helps you review Wi-Fi network observations made available to the app on your device. It is designed for diagnostics and keeps its event history locally. • Review recorded SSID, BSSID, signal strength, security status, and timestamps. • Search and filter event history. • Ignore selected BSSIDs in future captures. • Export selected observations as JSON or Markdown for your own analysis. The app uses Apple's Hotspot Helper capability. Available observations depend on device, iOS behavior, and granted capabilities. BSSIDScan does not reveal Wi-Fi passwords or change network settings. Exported network identifiers can be sensitive, so review files before sharing them.
DFIR Toolkit
This app provides forensic examiners with tools for documentation and reference, including chain-of-custody forms, case organization, and artifact lookups. It operates entirely offline and encrypts data on the device, ensuring privacy and security in the field.
- Chain-of-custody documentation
- Consent-to-search forms
- On-device signature capture
- Encrypted case workspace
- Artifact reference library
- File signature database
- Timestamp and storage calculators

Built by a court-qualified forensic examiner: chain-of-custody and consent-to-search documentation you can complete, sign, and export at the scene — fully offline, encrypted on device, no account, no cloud. Everything runs on-device. Look up an artifact location at a scene, convert a FILETIME value on a flight, or document a matter in a facility with no signal — the toolkit works the same everywhere. DOCUMENTATION • Evidence Forms — chain-of-custody and consent-to-search documentation with on-device signature capture. A completed form locks; corrections create a new version instead of overwriting the record. • Case Workspace — organize matters, evidence items, and notes in an encrypted, on-device workspace. • Exports — PDF and JSON generated locally, with a clear disclaimer. Deterministic: the same case produces the same bytes every time. REFERENCE • Artifact Reference — where forensic artifacts live across the operating systems you encounter in the field, with what each one does and does not establish. • File Signature Database — identify files by their magic bytes; search by hex, extension, or type, with a hex quick-view. • Calculators — timestamp (Unix epoch, FILETIME, WebKit, Cocoa, GPS), storage-size, hash, and base conversions, each validated against a published test-vector suite. • Dashboard — resume recent work and pin the tools you use most. BUILT FOR THE WITNESS STAND DFIR Toolkit never touches your evidence. It does not acquire, image, parse, or analyze data, and it produces no findings or opinions — so nothing in it can be attacked as an unvalidated analytical tool, and nothing you do here can alter a working copy. It documents your process and answers your lookups; your validated tools and your judgment do the examination. PRIVATE AND OFFLINE BY DESIGN • No data collection — the app declares "Data Not Collected." • No account, and no network connection required for any feature. • Case data and captured signatures are encrypted at rest on your device. • Full Dynamic Type and VoiceOver support; dark mode throughout. FREE AND PRO The reference side is free: the File Signature Database, all four calculators, the iOS artifact reference, and the Dashboard. DFIR Toolkit Pro unlocks the documentation side — Evidence Forms, Case Workspace, deterministic PDF and JSON exports, and the complete artifact library. DFIR Toolkit Pro is an auto-renewable subscription: 1 year, $119.00 (USD). Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.

It was written by a working, court-qualified examiner to be the reference he wanted in the field: fast, offline, and defensible.
