OPTICS // OS: The Ultimate Device Intelligence & Threat Mitigation Suite OpticsOS transforms your iPhone into a military-grade cyber-intelligence terminal. Built for users who demand absolute control over their privacy, storage, and digital footprint, OpticsOS delivers a suite of powerful tools wrapped in a stunning, haptic-driven interface. PREMIUM MODULES INCLUDE: SHARD // KINETIC DRIVE: A localized storage intelligence tool. Shard performs a deep scan of your device's capacity and executes a "Kinetic Purge" sequence to help you visualize and manage fragmented cache and system bloat. ZENITH // ZERO-G METADATA SCRUB: Your photos are leaking your location. Zenith’s "Gravity Crush" engine strips hidden EXIF data, GPS coordinates, and camera intel from your images, returning a clean, untraceable "Zero-G" payload back to your gallery. ECLIPSE // NETWORK STEALTH: Unsure about the public Wi-Fi you just connected to? Eclipse initiates a gamified packet sweep, analyzing your connection's security protocol, gateway IP, and TLS encryption to generate an immediate Threat Level assessment. MIRROR // IDENTITY THREAT MATRIX: Powered by advanced AI intelligence, Mirror acts as your personal data breach monitor. Input any email alias to initiate a Neural Scan that queries known vulnerability databases, revealing exactly where your credentials have been compromised. SINGULARITY // PHISHING DECOMPILER: (Coming Soon) Paste suspicious SMS messages or shortened links into the Singularity engine to decompile the threat and identify social engineering scams before you click.

NetProbeX shows you what's actually on your network β€” not just that a device exists, but what it's running and what it's exposing. WHY NETPROBEX Most network scanners tell you "a device is here" and stop. NetProbeX goes further: tap any open port and see the exact raw data the service sends back, in hex and ASCII, just like a professional network tool. No other consumer scanner shows you this. Everything runs on your device. There's no account to create, no cloud backend, and nothing about your network is ever sent anywhere except the one optional, manual public-IP check you can trigger yourself. WHAT YOU CAN DO β€’ Discover every device on your Wi-Fi β€” routers, phones, laptops, printers, smart speakers, cameras β€” with real names via mDNS/Bonjour, not just IP addresses. β€’ Raw Response Inspector β€” tap an open port and see the exact bytes the service returns. Copy it, export it, or send your own custom probe. β€’ Hidden Camera Finder β€” scan for exposed RTSP/DVR camera ports, the kind hidden cameras and unsecured IP cameras commonly leave open. β€’ Router Vulnerability Check β€” a read-only look at whether your router has UPnP, NAT-PMP, or Telnet left open, the three most common home-router misconfigurations. β€’ Real diagnostics β€” actual ICMP ping and traceroute (not an approximation), DNS lookup, and an internet speed test. β€’ Wake on LAN β€” save a device's MAC once and wake a sleeping PC or NAS on demand. β€’ Rename, label, and hide devices β€” keep notes on a busy network so you can identify the culprit fast if something causes a slowdown or an IP conflict. β€’ Save scans and revisit them anytime. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT CAN'T DO Apple restricts what any app β€” including NetProbeX β€” can see about other devices' real hardware (MAC) addresses, as a privacy protection. NetProbeX respects this rather than trying to work around it: device identification relies on network behavior, hostnames, and mDNS names, which is what makes NetProbeX reliable where other scanners overpromise. Built for anyone who's ever wondered "what is that device on my network?" β€” from home users curious about their smart devices to IT-minded people managing a busy office Wi-Fi.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NetProbeX at none against OpticsOS's 1. NetProbeX also leads on device support. On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
