Reachable vs WiFizer

Know you’re online—and whether it’s usable—before the call drops. Reachable answers one question when you join a new network: Is this actually the internet, and is it good enough to use? What you get Automatic check on launch — no hunt for a “run test” button. Latency — quick HTTP timing so you can see if the network feels responsive. Download speed — a simple Mbps snapshot, not a lab report. Your public IP — useful when you’re debugging VPNs, tunnels, or “why does this site see the wrong place?” A human verdict — plain language like what kind of use the connection is probably fine for. Captive portal help — when the Wi‑Fi wants a login page, open it in-app and get past the splash screen. Why location is requested On iOS, Approximate Location is used so the app can read the Wi‑Fi network name (SSID) you’re on. Reachable doesn’t need your precise location to run the checks. Built for real life Coffee shops, airports, coworking, guest networks, and “it says I’m connected but nothing loads.”

WiFizer is your complete Wi-Fi and network toolbox: see your real connection quality, map your coverage room by room, discover every device around you, and diagnose problems with pro-grade tools — no account, no ads, no tracking. SEE YOUR SIGNAL — FOR REAL • Live quality ring driven by real measurements: latency, jitter and packet loss, with a rolling 60-second chart. • Go Live for true Wi-Fi numbers — RSSI in dBm, channel, band, link rates — using an Apple-Shortcuts companion built on Apple's own actions. • Mesh-friendly: see every access point you roam between, name your nodes, and track the best signal each one ever gave you. • On cellular too: no Wi-Fi? WiFizer shows your live connection quality, network type (5G/LTE) and provider. WI-FI HEATMAP • Walk your home and watch a live coverage map paint itself onto the floor through your camera. • On LiDAR iPhones, scan the room and see your signal on a real 2D floor plan and a rotatable 3D model. PERSONAL HOTSPOT INSIGHTS • Hosting? See every connected device — name, IP, live latency on an animated meter, updating as devices join and leave. • On someone's hotspot? See the provider and your latency to the host and to the internet, so you know which hop is slow. KNOW YOUR NETWORK • Device scanner: find everything on your network, with names, vendors and a detail page per device — live ping, advertised services, port check. • Bonjour browser: what every device announces — AirPlay, Chromecast, printers, shares, smart-home gear. • Bluetooth scanner with distance estimates. • A private, Face ID-protected vault for your Wi-Fi passwords, with QR sharing. SPEED TEST • Multi-stream download and upload with live gauges — no extra server needed. • Full history with charts, CSV export, and an optional daily background health check that warns you when your connection degrades. A REAL TOOLKIT Ping, traceroute, DNS lookup, port scan, subnet tools — plus an OSINT set: WHOIS/RDAP, DNS records, email security grades (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), TLS certificate inspector, HTTP security headers, IP geolocation, subdomain finder and more. ON YOUR WRIST AND HOME SCREEN • Apple Watch app: live signal strength and latency while you walk. • Home and Lock Screen widgets: your network, provider, public IP and last speed test at a glance. FOUR LOOKS Choose your vibe: Soft, Mono, Glass or full-on Terminal. HONEST BY DESIGN iOS keeps some Wi-Fi details private, and unlike some apps, WiFizer never invents numbers to fill the gap.
