Commercial Use Only Ekahau Analyzer is part of Ekahau Connect subscription and requires Ekahau Sidekick measurement device. The Analyzer app is a professional grade Wi-Fi health validation and troubleshooting tool for iPhones and iPads. The auto test function diagnoses your network faster and with more accuracy than any other product on the market. The simple interface provides a quick and easy-to-understand pass/fail indication of Wi-Fi network quality, identifying network problems based on predefined requirements. These predefined requirements are the most common network issues such as channel utilization and co-channel interference Time is precious. Every second counts. Especially when troubleshooting your network. A spectrum analyzer can be critical in the troubleshooting process. It records and measures the strength (power/energy) of both Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi traffic that exist in your network environment. This allows you to quickly identify potential interferers such as wireless cameras, cordless phones, or other wireless devices. In addition, a spectrum analyzer can show the channel of the measured traffic. This can allow you to optimize your network channels for peak performance while avoiding interference. Ekahau Analyzer also has the industry-standard Speedtest by Ookla® integrated into an easy to use solution. With Speedtest, you get trusted internet speed measurements that help you assess your network's performance. But that's not all – complemented with Ekahau Analyzer and Sidekick 2, you also gain access to comprehensive Wi-Fi spectrum and network configuration insights by simultaneously monitoring real time spectrum analysis whilst running a Speedtest. The integration of Speedtest into Ekahau Analyzer solves a fundamental challenge in network troubleshooting: determining whether performance issues stem from your internet service provider or your wireless network.

WiFi Device – Network Scanner is an iOS app for seeing every device connected to your WiFi or local network. Use this app to scan a home or small-office network and list phones, laptops, smart TVs, cameras, printers, and other gear with an IP address and a name. It is for anyone who wants to know who is on their WiFi without router admin access. No router login and no technical setup. The scan runs on your iPhone. WHO IS ON MY WIFI? Internet suddenly slow, or a device name you do not recognize? WiFi Device – Network Scanner scans your local network and lists connected devices in one place. Compare the list with the devices you own. Anything you cannot identify may be a neighbor or a stranger on your WiFi. Change your WiFi password in your router, scan again, and confirm they are gone. WHAT YOU CAN DO - See all devices connected to your WiFi network - Find unknown devices on your home network - View IP address, hostname, and device details - Count how many devices are on your network - Keep an inventory of your home network devices - Check the LAN when a device will not connect - Discover nearby Bluetooth devices and their signal strength FIND A LOST BLUETOOTH DEVICE Misplaced earbuds, headphones, a watch, or a speaker? Open the Bluetooth list, pick the device, and walk with the hot/cold proximity meter. The signal gets stronger as you get closer. It helps you search; it cannot promise the device is still in range. CHECK A HOTEL ROOM OR RENTAL Traveling? Connect to the hotel or vacation rental WiFi and scan it to see which cameras and smart devices share the network. Use the camera filter and flashlight to look for lens reflections, the magnetometer near suspicious objects, and the Bluetooth scanner for nearby devices. No app can guarantee to find every hidden camera, but these tools give you a fast first check.

No. WiFi Device – Network Scanner scans from your iPhone. No router login is required. How do I remove an unknown device from my WiFi? The app shows who is connected. To block a device, change your WiFi password or block it in your router settings, then scan again. Does it work on mobile data? Connect to the WiFi network you want to check.
