See every device on your WiFi. Free — no ads, no subscription. Network Scanner Toolkit finds everything on your network in seconds: name, IP, MAC address, and manufacturer — even devices that hide from ping. One-letter capability tags show you at a glance which devices are pingable, run a web interface, speak Bonjour or UPnP, or serve as your gateway. Tap any device to ping it, open its admin page in-app, rename it, favorite it, or mark it for later. New devices get flagged automatically, so an unfamiliar gadget on your WiFi never slips past you. A full network toolbox — free: • LAN Scanner — fast sweep with smart device naming, custom names & icons, new-device badges • Subnet Calculator — CIDR math, IP-in-subnet checks, VLSM splitting, range-to-CIDR aggregation. A tool most paid apps don't have. • Port Scanner — presets, custom ranges, or all 65,535 ports • Traceroute — every hop geolocated on a live map with latency charts • Ping — live graph, configurable payload size and interval • DNS Lookup — A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME, NS, SOA, PTR & SRV records, custom resolvers, DNSSEC check • Whois — full registry data with referral chasing • Bonjour Monitor — watch services appear and disappear in real time • Network Info — IP, router, DNS, IPv6, data usage, SSID • History — every scan and test saved automatically; reopen scans as fully interactive device lists Toolkit Pro — one purchase, yours forever: • Find Cameras — sweep your network for security cameras using RTSP, ONVIF, and vendor fingerprints, with honest three-tier confidence ratings.
