IP Scanner Ultra vs Kestrel Sight

Home Radar: always know what's on your Wi-Fi. An old phone reconnects while you're out. A laptop joins the office network at 2am. Something you don't recognize appears next to your TV. Home Radar tells you the moment it happens: a push alert on iPhone and Apple Watch, a morning briefing of overnight changes, and a Network DVR timeline to scrub back through. Remote Scans checks in from anywhere. IP Scanner Ultra bundles our award-winning Mac, iPhone and iPad apps together with new Apple TV, Apple Watch and Vision Pro versions - 6 apps in one. Scan your local area network to determine the identity of all machines and internet devices on the LAN. Powerful results, yet easy and intuitive to use. It’s like a level 9 detect devices spell for your network! Key features: * Home Radar push alerts: know the moment a device joins or leaves your Wi-Fi, on iPhone and Apple Watch * Network DVR: scrub back through your network's history and see exactly what changed and when * Remote Scans via iCloud: check your home network from anywhere, straight from your iPhone * Automatic vendor identification for discovered devices * Bluetooth device name detection for clearer device identity * Full IPv6 support * Extremely fast scan results * Customizable results - assign your own names and icons to discovered devices * Save and consult past scans * PING, Wake on LAN and Port Scan tools built right in * Option to open a device in browser, VNC or other applications * Save and import custom device lists, or sync via iCloud * Sort network list by device name, IP address, MAC address or Last Seen * System level notifications for newly discovered devices and changes in device state * Add custom network ranges * Import/export scan results via email or bonjour * Clean, professional design that is super easy to use Whether you’re a casual home user or a network professional, IP Scanner Ultra is all about customizing the way you view and analyze your network. You may apply custom names and icons to the devices on your network and adjust the type and amount of information you see in the network overview; don't need to see the MAC address column... don't display it! Text too small... make it larger! We also include a whitelist feature that lets you filter out known and trusted devices to reveal new or unexpected ones, a great way to easily identify unwanted network visitors. IP Scanner Ultra can be used in several primary modes such as: * A quick overview of which devices are currently on the network, including seeing which devices are actively and passively present * A “Cumulative Mode” that shows network changes over time, including options to display devices which were once present but now no longer visible. Still not sure if IP Scanner Ultra does what you need? * Try it out with our FREE version of IP Scanner available in the App Store for macOS & iOS https://apple.co/3WURLXz * Check out our FAQs at http://10base-t.com * Or contact us directly with any questions at hello@10base-t.com - we always love hearing from our customers. We use our own tools daily and strive to make the best possible IP Scanning utility available - let us know what features you’d like to see!

Kestrel Sight brings professional packet capture analysis to iPhone and iPad. Every byte is processed on-device — Kestrel makes no network connections, and collects no analytics. WHAT'S NEW CSV Export — Three profiles: Summary (Excel-ready, 9 columns), Detailed (every protocol layer, ~24 columns), Flow (one row per conversation). Export everything or just bookmarked packets, with bookmark notes preserved as columns. Filenames indicate scope at a glance. Smart Bookmarks — Bookmarking a flow, host, DNS query, or stream now resolves to all related packets in CSV exports. Tap "View" on any bookmark to jump straight to that data with the right filter applied. Expanded Protocol Detection — Added classification for SMB, mDNS, DHCP, NTP, SNMP, SSDP, and QUIC. Dashboard Navigation — Every dashboard widget is now interactive. Tap Total Packets to open Packets, tap a Top Talker to filter Hosts to that IP, tap "TCP" in Protocol Distribution to filter the Packets list, and so on. Subtle chevrons indicate what's tappable. Haptic Feedback — Bike-spoke clicker feedback when scrolling lists. Crisp tap feedback on buttons. Adjustable row density. New filter-bar toggle cycles between Classic, Compact, and Comfortable layouts in the Packets browser. Compact fits ~22 rows per phone screen; Comfortable mirrors iOS Mail's two-line look. On iPad, Classic uses a denser style single-line row. App Switcher privacy. Sight now hides the analysis surface behind the Kestrel logo whenever the app leaves the foreground, so the iOS App Switcher thumbnail and AirPlay mirroring. Faster first-tap haptic response and internal robustness improvements. CORE FEATURES Dashboard — Protocol distribution, encryption stats, top talkers, session summary Packets — Browse and filter with detailed per-layer inspection Raw Data Search — Query any byte sequence in its original form Flows — Bidirectional reconstruction with byte counts, packet counts, timing Hosts — Per-IP profile with traffic stats, port activity, connection mapping DNS — Extract and search all DNS queries and responses Streams — TCP stream reassembly with full-content viewer (auto-runs under 1 GB) Timeline — Visual event timeline with filtering Audit Log — SHA-256 file hashing and session audit log included in PDF exports CAPACITY Up to 1 GB — Full feature set with automatic TCP reassembly Over 1 GB — TCP reassembly disabled; packets, flows, hosts, DNS, and timeline remain fully functional Over 2 GB — Application performance may degrade SUPPORTED FORMATS PCAP, PCAPNG IDEAL FOR SOC analysts reviewing captures away from the workstation Network administrators troubleshooting connectivity Incident responders triaging captures in the field Penetration testers reviewing engagement data Educators and students learning protocol behavior PRIVACY AND SECURITY Zero network access — no outbound connections No analytics, tracking, or advertising Kestrel is designed as an analytical and educational starting point. Always verify findings independently before acting on them. No software can guarantee absolute security; follow your organization's evidence-handling procedures when working with sensitive captures. IMPORTANT NOTES Kestrel analyzes pre-captured PCAP files only — live capture is not permitted within iOS by the platform itself. Screenshots may combine demo and real data. Large captures may extend load times. Devices with 8 GB RAM or more are recommended for multi-gigabyte files. The demo uses fabricated sample packets.
