IP Geolocation & Network Tools
Read full descriptionHide full description
IP Geolocation and Network Tools is a comprehensive mobile utility suite designed for network administrators, developers, and users who want to understand their network environment and find location intelligence. The application combines advanced location tracking with diagnostic utilities into a single, high-performance interface. The application automatically resolves your current public and local IP address configuration, mapping coordinates onto an interactive display. With device location permissions, the app also displays your precise real-time GPS coordinates directly on the map card, letting you compare your actual physical location with your network IP-based location. Users can search for any valid IPv4 or IPv6 address to retrieve geographic details including country, region, city, zip code, Internet Service Provider (ISP), and timezone. The application includes six network diagnostic tools: 1. IP Geolocation: Maps and details coordinates for target IP addresses, supported by a search history panel. 2. Connection Details: Identifies connection status, interface type, local IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, DNS servers, and cellular carrier name. 3. Ping Test: Measures round-trip time latency and packet loss to any host using a TCP handshake loop, displaying results in a graphical line chart. 4. DNS Lookup: Queries Cloudflare secure DNS-over-HTTPS servers to resolve A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, TXT, and NS records. 5. Whois Query: Establishes raw socket connections to registry databases to retrieve registry data and follows referral server chains recursively. 6. Subnet LAN Scanner: Performs concurrent host sweeps on the local network to identify active devices and open connection responses. 7. Port Scanner: Scans target hosts for open service ports using custom presets such as common, web, or system ports. A localized query history database allows users to store, recall, or clear past lookup targets. The entire application is fully localized in fifty-six languages and respects dark appearance settings.

Is someone on your Wi-Fi right now? Mikat shows every device connected to your network as a dot on a radar: phones, TVs, cameras, and the ones you don't recognize. Then it tells you what to fix: a router panel left open, a factory password, a port exposed to the internet. Instead of technical tables, your home appears as a RADAR: every device connected to your Wi-Fi is a dot on the screen. At a glance you know what's on your network, what's fine, and what needs attention. WHAT IT DOES β’ Discovers the devices on your Wi-Fi network: phones, computers, TVs, cameras, consoles, printers and more. β’ Shows your home's status with a visual radar and a simple traffic light: good, review, or take action. β’ Explains risks in plain language: what's happening, how serious it is, and what to do. β’ Checks your connection from the outside (your public IP) to detect exposed ports and services, with your permission. BUILT FOR PEOPLE, NOT FOR EXPERTS No jargon. Every finding comes with a simple explanation; for vulnerabilities, the details and the steps to fix them come with Plus and Enterprise. A NOTE ABOUT YOUR SECURITY SOFTWARE Because the app checks the devices on your network, some security or firewall tools (ESET, Defender, Norton...) may show a "port scan" alert during the analysis. This is normal and expected: it's the app itself working on YOUR network, not a threat. Use Mikat only on networks you own. PRIVACY FIRST Mikat works on YOUR own network and YOUR own connection. It does not capture the content of your traffic, does not scan other people's networks, and does not sell your information. The external analysis is performed only on your public IP and only with your explicit consent. MY INTERNET, EXPLAINED Is your internet slow? Mikat measures the speed and tells you the cause: your home Wi-Fi, your router, your provider, or a device using a lot. It also counts how much your home uses today and for what type of use (video, games, downloads and updates, calls, browsing); seeing which device and on what comes with Mikat Plus. Mikat only counts bytes per device and per type: it does not store which sites you visit, and it deletes the counts after 30 days. βRead my routerβ checks your router, read-only, to see what the whole home uses; the password is used on the spot and is not stored. New networks stay provisional until you claim them as yours, and Miko falls asleep when all is calm. MIKAT PLUS (OPTIONAL) Mikat is free: it scans your network as often as you like, looks for vulnerabilities on your devices and saves what it finds. Mikat Plus shows you the details of each vulnerability and what to do to fix it, and adds automatic monitoring for new devices, security history and trends, and prioritized recommendations. Includes a 7-day free trial; after that it renews automatically until you cancel. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID Settings. You can log out and delete your account and your data at any time from within the app. A product of Lanicom S.A.S.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: IP Geolocation & Network Tools at none against Mikat's 4. Mikat's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
