About

My Network Scanner (MyNeS)

Features
Read full description

MyNeS (My Network Scanner) turns your phone into a full home-network scanner. No server, no Docker, no pairing, no account โ€” the scanning engine runs entirely on your device. Open the app on your Wi-Fi and MyNeS finds the devices around you and tells you what they are: manufacturer, model, type and operating system, pieced together from IP, MAC address, vendor (OUI), hostnames and the services each device advertises. WHAT YOU GET โ€ข Fast discovery โ€” a ping/TCP sweep plus mDNS/Bonjour, SSDP/UPnP and optional Bluetooth LE finds Wi-Fi and nearby Bluetooth devices. โ€ข Real identification โ€” vendor from the MAC address, device type and OS from the services a device exposes. Rename devices and add your own notes. โ€ข Identify with AI (optional) โ€” tap to send a device's technical facts to our hosted service for a manufacturer/model/type guess when the offline heuristics aren't sure. โ€ข Security view โ€” flags open ports, default-credential risks and known-CVE fingerprints on the gear you own, with links to the advisories. โ€ข Alerts & history โ€” see what joined or left your network over time, and get a notification when something new appears (optional background scanning). โ€ข Home Assistant (optional) โ€” connect your own instance to cross-check its device list against a live scan. โ€ข Private by design โ€” no accounts, no analytics, no ads, no trackers. Your scan results and settings stay on your device. PERMISSIONS โ€ข Local Network โ€” to discover devices on your Wi-Fi (this is the scan). โ€ข Bluetooth โ€” only if you turn on Bluetooth LE discovery. โ€ข Notifications โ€” only if you enable background scan alerts. MyNeS does not use your location. It is the mobile edition of the open-source My Network Scanner (MyNeS) project.
