NetAdmin is a complete network administration toolkit for your local network. Scan a subnet, see every device that answers, and drill into each host: reachability, round-trip time, open ports, hostname, MAC and vendor. Everything runs on-device — no accounts, nothing to sign up for. DISCOVER YOUR NETWORK • Fast subnet ping sweep with a live reachable/latency readout • Per-host detail: hostname, MAC address, OUI vendor and country, open ports, IPv6 addresses • Device Identity: on-device brand/model/OS fingerprinting from UPnP/mDNS/hostname/OUI signals • Bonjour / mDNS service discovery across ~40 service types (AirPlay, HomeKit, printers, file sharing, and more) • Bluetooth LE device inventory • Automatic device-type classification and icons • Rename any host, and add notes and tags that survive re-scans • Custom scan port list, and CSV export of hosts, Bonjour and Bluetooth results MONITOR IN REAL TIME • Live ping-reply latency and packet-loss graphs, per host • RTT min / avg / max / current / jitter and loss statistics • Optional automatic re-scan on a schedule you choose • New-device alerts: get notified when a never-before-seen device joins • Scan Diff: compare two scans to see which devices were added, removed, or changed • Digital Presence: person-to-device profiles, who's-home status, and a network event timeline • SNMP Walk over v1, v2c and v3 (USM authentication + privacy, SHA/AES) • Module-grouped MIB tree browser with filter and search • Import your own private MIB files • Live monitoring: pick numeric OIDs (counters, gauges, timeticks) and graph them over time • Save walks and export results as TXT or CSV • Pull the ARP table to auto-fill host MAC addresses TOOLS HUB • Subnet Calculator — netmask, wildcard, network, broadcast and usable host range from any CIDR • DNS Lookup — A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME, PTR, NS, SOA, SRV, CAA, SSHFP records and a DNSSEC indicator • DNS Benchmark — ranks public DNS resolvers (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, OpenDNS, AdGuard) by response time • DHCP Discovery — best-effort enumeration of DHCP servers on your LAN • Port Checker — test whether a TCP port is open and read its service banner • HTTP / TLS Inspector — response headers plus certificate common name, issuer, validity and SANs • Speed Test — 10-second parallel measurement per direction with loaded latency (bufferbloat), an animated gauge, selectable servers (Cloudflare or public LibreSpeed), history and a trend chart • Security Audit — on-device network security score (A–F) from risky open LAN ports and a router UPnP/IGD exposure audit • Port Forwards — view, add and remove your router's UPnP port forwards, all on-device • Wake-on-LAN — save named groups of devices and wake them together • Topology Map — a visual map of the devices around your gateway • Wi-Fi Scanner (Mac) — nearby access points via CoreWLAN: SSID, signal, channel, band and security MORE NETWORK TOOLS • Traceroute with per-hop geolocation, on-demand WHOIS, and a full-screen map on iPhone • Ping Test to any host or domain with latency and loss graphs • Network topology and interface details, public IP, Wi-Fi information MADE FOR YOUR DEVICES • Universal three-column layout that adapts from iPhone to iPad to Mac • Save multiple networks and review them offline • iCloud sync keeps your saved SNMP servers and bookmarks in step across your devices • Privacy option to mask the device-specific half of MAC addresses PRIVACY NetAdmin works entirely on your device and over your local network — no analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs. Location is used only to read the current Wi-Fi name (to label saved networks) and, on Mac, to list nearby access points in the Wi-Fi Scanner; Bluetooth and Local Network access are used only to discover the devices you scan.

iRouteur turns information from your compatible GL.iNet router into a clear, fast dashboard on your iPhone. See the essentials of your network without an account, ads, or an intermediary server. Key features: • Monitor download and upload throughput in real time • See devices connected through Wi-Fi and Ethernet • Identify, rename, and personalize your devices • Generate a Wi-Fi QR code to share your network without displaying or saying the password, protected by Face ID or Touch ID • View AdGuard Home statistics: blocked queries, filtering lists, and temporary protection pauses • Get an on-device network summary with Apple Intelligence when available Privacy: iRouteur has no account, ads, tracking, or developer-operated server. Your router password is stored in the iPhone Keychain. Optional remote access communicates directly with the GL.iNet DDNS address chosen by the user. Compatibility: the app requires a compatible GL.iNet router running firmware 4.x and access to its local administration interface. iRouteur detects the model and firmware version and checks available APIs separately. AdGuard Home must be configured on the router to use its tab. iRouteur is an independent app and is not affiliated with GL.iNet or AdGuard. Flint and AdGuard Home are trademarks of their respective owners.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: iRouteur at Free against NetAdmin's $29.99. iRouteur also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). NetAdmin's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
