Beacon Scout vs NetPulse Diagnostics

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.

NetPulse Diagnostics is a clean network troubleshooting toolkit for iPhone and iPad. It helps developers, system administrators, website owners, support teams and everyday users understand what is happening with their connection. Check your network without guessing: • View Wi-Fi, cellular, VPN and network path status • Inspect local interfaces visible to iOS • Run DNS lookup and DIG-style record checks • Test ICMP ping and TCP latency • Check TCP ports and UDP diagnostic responses • Probe HTTP and HTTPS endpoints • Inspect SSL/TLS certificate details • Detect your public IP address • Scan your own LAN with ping sweep or selected TCP ports • Measure download and upload speed • Save local diagnostic history and export reports NetPulse is useful when a website does not open, a DNS record looks wrong, a VPN route changes, a certificate needs verification, a local device disappears from the network, or a service port does not respond. Built for both technical and everyday use: Developers can quickly validate hosts, ports, DNS records, SSL certificates and HTTP responses. Site owners can check whether their domain, website and certificate are reachable. Home users can inspect their current network, VPN state, public IP and local devices in a simple interface. Responsible diagnostics: LAN scanning is designed for networks you own or have permission to test. iOS may ask for Local Network permission before local device checks. Some routers, VPNs and cellular networks block ICMP ping, so NetPulse also provides TCP and HTTP checks as practical alternatives. Privacy-first workflow: No account is required. Reports are stored locally on your device. Diagnostic requests are started by the user when running a selected check, scan or speed test.
