IP Workbench: Professional Subnet Calculator A Powerful IP Subnet Calculator for Network Professionals IP Workbench was built based on my use of various subnet calculators over the last decade. I don't like having to type in subnet masks over and over so in my app you can pick any class mask and apply it with a single click. I also don't like typing in IPv6 addresses so I included a feature to import addresses via the camera and OCR. This an essential tool for network engineers, IT professionals, and students who need quick, accurate subnet calculations on the go. Whether you're configuring networks, studying for certifications, or troubleshooting connectivity issues, IP Workbench delivers precise results with a clean, intuitive interface.

Understand your connection with SpeedN, an iPhone speed test and network toolkit. MEASURE REAL BANDWIDTH Run M-Lab NDT7 download and upload tests with two live gauges. Follow each test stage, then review final speeds and throughput charts. CHECK THE SERVICES YOU USE Measure HTTPS response times to popular services or add your own HTTPS hostname. Custom services stay saved on your device. View completed, unavailable and failed checks clearly. KEEP AND SHARE YOUR RESULTS Browse your test history, open detailed results and read an analysis generated on your device. Share a text report using the iOS share sheet. Public IP addresses are excluded from shared reports. EXPLORE YOUR NETWORK View your public IP and approximate IP region, current connection type and local device information. Use website checks, DNS lookup and TCP connection tools. Optional Globalping tools add remote Ping, HTTP, DNS, Traceroute and MTR measurements. KNOW WHAT THE NUMBERS MEAN Bandwidth measures the connection to an automatically selected M-Lab server. Website latency measures HTTPS response time; it is not ICMP ping. Wi-Fi and cellular quality icons reflect response measurements, not radio signal strength. The selected country labels a result and does not change your route or location. YOUR CHOICES No account, subscription or in-app purchases. Version 1.1.0 includes Google AdMob interstitial and native ads with non-personalized ad requests and privacy choices where required. History and preferences stay on your device. You can use offline mode and change network permissions in Settings. Before your first bandwidth test, SpeedN explains M-Lab data handling and asks for permission. M-Lab collects your public IP and test data, retains them indefinitely and publishes them for research. You can reset this permission in Settings. Tests may use more than 1 GB; carrier charges may apply. SpeedN limits bandwidth tests to four starts in a rolling 24-hour period. Globalping is optional and sends your selected destination and diagnostic request to external probes. Network tools depend on provider availability and local connectivity. Results do not guarantee performance for every app or destination. Requires iOS 17 or later. The app interface is in English.
