Beacon Scout vs NetScanPro

Search and find your missplaced BLE or Bluetooth devices with this simple scanner app. Simply scan for devices in the environment and select the oine you want to locate. It will then show signal strength and the direction you are facing in a "Radar screen look" allowing you to see where the signal ius strongest. Usually when the signal gets stronger, you get closer to the device until its directly infront of you. You never had this issue? You put your wireless in-ear headphones somewhere and can't remember where. They are even connected to your phone, but playing music would not work because those modern erapühones only play while ion your ear. Also they would not be very loud... At this point, this app is very usefull. Just select the device and follow the signal. You can even mark a device as favourite so you can find it faster when it happens again. Otherwise the devices you connected to will be persistently stored in a list. Long press on a device in the list to get some additional information about it. All this functionality without the need to be online, without payment or hidden fees, without registration and without advertisement.

NetScanPro turns your iPhone or iPad into a professional-grade Wi-Fi network scanner. Discover what's on your network, identify what each device actually is, see which services are exposed, and understand what might be at risk — with all scanning and identification happening on your device. FEATURES Device Discovery - Finds devices on your local Wi-Fi network using four discovery methods working in parallel: TCP probing, Bonjour/mDNS, SSDP/UPnP, and ICMP ping - Shows IP and IPv6 addresses, MAC addresses where available, hostnames, and device categories - Works with Macs, PCs, smart TVs, printers, speakers, Fire TVs, Apple TVs, routers, smart-home and Matter devices, and more Device Identification - Identifies devices from Bonjour records, UPnP announcements, open-port patterns, and — for devices that broadcast one, such as AirPlay and Chromecast hardware — MAC vendor prefixes matched against the full IEEE manufacturer database, bundled offline - Reads the Bonjour service types printers, speakers, streaming devices and smart-home hubs use to announce themselves - Every identification carries a confidence level, so you can tell a confirmed match from a best guess - The device you're scanning from identifies itself - Devices that share nothing identifiable stay unlabeled rather than mislabeled - All identification happens on-device with no cloud lookup Port Scanning with Plain-Language Descriptions (Pro) - Tap any device to scan 27 common TCP ports - Identifies HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, FTP, SMB, IPP, RDP, VNC, and more - Tap any port to learn what it actually does — no networking degree required - Security guidance for sensitive ports explains real-world risks like WannaCry, credential exposure, and exposed cameras and printers, with severity tiers so you know what needs attention - Devices with a web port open get a one-tap link into Safari — the fastest way to identify something that won't tell you its name Network Security Summary (Pro) - Scan every device on your network at once and see all your security findings in one place - Findings grouped by service and ordered worst-first, so you can spot patterns across your whole network at a glance - Tap any finding to see exactly which devices are affected - Color-coded severity separates real risks from what's just worth knowing - See every device with a web port open in one place, with one tap to each Network-Aware Scanning - Each Wi-Fi network keeps its own separate device list - Switch between networks (home, work, anywhere) with a tap - Per-network scan history, device renaming, and PDF reports that open with a summary of what the scan found - Rename a device and the name sticks, even after your router hands its address to something else. When NetScanPro can't tell whether a device moved, it asks instead of guessing, and the answer can be undone for two weeks - Create networks manually and pin a scan to one, so two sites that look identical (same subnet, same gateway) stay separate Privacy First - Face ID or passcode locks the app — optional in Settings - All scanning happens on-device — nothing leaves your local network - No accounts, no analytics, no tracking SDKs - Your scan history stays on your phone Freemium - Free: unlimited device discovery, 3 network scans per day - Pro ($9.99 one-time): unlimited scans + port scanning on every device + network security summary + PDF report export + device renaming. No subscriptions. Built for home network administrators, IT professionals, security-conscious users, and anyone curious about what's on their Wi-Fi. The in-app help screen explains how device discovery works and which devices may not appear (some IoT and privacy-mode phones don't expose themselves to any iOS scanner).
