Service providers have found that simply looking at signal strength measurements and using a single instrument is not a true measure of the Wi-Fi user experience in the home. Current workflows result in an uncharacterized Wi-Fi environment causing a high amount of customer service calls and truck rolls. AirScout provides an automated solution that surveys the residence from Layer 1 all the way through to the application layer. AirScout provides technicians with a tool that distills complex measurements into easy to understand metrics, enabling technicians to convey to consumers location-specific application performance when and where they need it.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AirScout holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: unWired Support has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of AirScout's written reviews are positive against 33% of unWired Support's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AirScout ships an update every 4 months, unWired Support every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on June 11, 2026 and August 29, 2026 respectively.
