# Wifi Analyzer vs Web Inspector

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Web Inspector at none against Wifi Analyzer's 8. Web Inspector also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). Wifi Analyzer's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 3.9). On price, ratings volume, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wifi Analyzer sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Web Inspector asks for nothing beyond the download.

Wifi Analyzer holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 269 and 152 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Wifi Analyzer's written reviews are positive against 65% of Web Inspector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Wifi Analyzer ships an update every 2 months, Web Inspector weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
