Whether for troubleshooting, security, or simple curiosity, it’s always helpful to know which devices are connected to your network. Network Radar is a powerful yet easy-to-use network scanning and management tool for iPhone and iPad that gives you detailed insights into all devices on your network. As Network Radar scans, it instantly displays newly discovered devices. For each device, you can view comprehensive information such as IP address, DNS names, mDNS name, open ports, response time, and more. You can also create scans with custom IP ranges. All scans are saved and can be revisited later — even when your device is no longer connected to that network. Take advantage of the built-in network utilities, including Ping, Port Scan, Whois, and DNS lookups (forward and reverse). These tools work not only within your local network but also with external IP addresses and domains. Network Radar is not limited to your local network. Specify custom start and end addresses to scan any reachable segment of any network from your device. With its intuitive user interface, Network Radar is simple to use across all your iOS devices. It’s a modern, efficient app designed for iOS with minimal impact on your network. By the way, Network Radar is also available for macOS — check it out!

About

EchoFind

EchoFind helps you track down the mystery sounds in your home — the hum behind a wall, the buzz from an outlet, the rattle you can hear but can't find. IDENTIFY Tap once and EchoFind listens, then names what it hears from a library of common household sounds — appliances, motors, water, HVAC, alarms, and everyday ambient and human sounds. Classification runs entirely on your device in real time. LOCATE Can't tell where a sound is coming from? Start Locate and walk slowly through the room. EchoFind tracks your path with your phone's motion sensors and builds a simple heatmap showing where the sound is loudest — guiding you toward its source. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your audio never leaves your device. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics, and no tracking. Sounds are analyzed on your iPhone and discarded. Motion data stays on your device too. (See our privacy policy.) HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT CAN DO EchoFind reliably detects common ambient, biological, and human sounds. Detection of specialty mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical sounds is experimental in this release and clearly labeled as such in the app — treat those results as hints, not conclusions. NOT A SAFETY DEVICE EchoFind is an informational tool only. It is not a safety, diagnostic, or measurement device. If you suspect an electrical, gas, water, or fire hazard, stop and contact a licensed professional or your utility — do not rely on this app. Built for curiosity, not certainty. Point it at the unknown and start hunting.
