# NetSpot WiFi Analyzer vs Knog Mobile

The clearest difference is rating: NetSpot WiFi Analyzer at 3.7 against Knog Mobile's 2.3. NetSpot WiFi Analyzer also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (354 vs 52). Knog Mobile's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NetSpot WiFi Analyzer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Knog Mobile asks for nothing beyond the download.

NetSpot WiFi Analyzer holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NetSpot WiFi Analyzer has 354 ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of NetSpot WiFi Analyzer's written reviews are positive against 20% of Knog Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

NetSpot WiFi Analyzer ships an update every 2 weeks, Knog Mobile every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
