Scany for Negative User Reviews
✓ No IPv6 supportSeems to work ok, however no IPv6 support, so no use for me..Version: 1.10.9
✓ Can’t use network scan on iOS 11This app won’t even scan the local network anymore. Every time I’ve tried it told me I wasn’t connected to WiFi. I even turned airplane mode on and turned wifi back on so that was my only connection period and still told me I wasn’t connected to WiFi.Version: 1.10.3
✓ No MACWithout MAC this app is just as useless as iNet. Color is bad for anyone who no longer has 20/20 vision Preview show MAC addresses so after the paid download delete and forget.Version: 1.10.3
✓ WonderingDoes it show what the person looked up on the internet?.Version: 1.9
✓ BadThought this app was free when I downloaded , then I get a bill for $5.99. What a rip off! Totally worth $0!.Version: 1.9
✓ No good to meIt seems to be a great lil app however it is extremely complicated and in no way easy to navigate you can even go to thier website for help and watch the movie on how to make it work and watch the tech have problems getting it to work, when it works wow awesome, but i have not gotten it to work for me 1 single time where i could actuially use the networks i find not,,,,,NOT recommended ......and it should be automatic like the iphone network is i thought thats what i was buying an auto scanning system to find and expannd on local networks its a waste to me and provides no asistance at all i will retract or improve this rating if they ever make it workable.Version: 0
✓ Wow. so badDownloaded and paid for app to see if the channel for wifi needed to be changed. you need a computer science degree to use this app. totally useless for the average non IT pro. i mean would it hurt to put some easy to use things in like a channel traffic icon or something to help those who arent experts on wifi networks? useless in any way i can tell..Version: 1.11
✓ Good but crypticThis tool works as advertised. It works well, and it works quickly. However the color scheme, layout, and the icons aren't at all self-evident. Therefore it's hard to give this app a stellar rating since its functionality is somewhat crippled by its poor user interface choices..Version: 1.9
✓ Doesn’t Work As AdvertisedWARNING: Does not actually do all the things it says it does. Save your money, don’t buy!!.Version: 1.10.3
✓ Don’t purchase!The app freezes more than its useful.... I don’t recommend purchasing this app. I kinda want a refund to be very honest. Just forget these bs apps & save time, money & frustration and simply just purchase a firewalla, fingbox or other comprable device to really help you with your online security needs..Version: 1.10.3
✓ Nice utility, but missing some featuresThe app is nice, giving the option to port scan ranges or IP address. A missing feature however, is the ability to input IPv6 addresses into the port scan..Version: 1.10.3
✓ No working!!!No working give me my money pleas 😡🙁.Version: 1.10.3
✓ MacWhy can’t I see the Mac addresses.Version: 1.10.3
✓ Good tool, needs improvement/ updatesOne of the few good network tool iOS apps. I most often use the port scan function, and this is one of the few iOS apps that allows you to scan an entire IP range (or subnet) for specific ports. (for the price paid) I would like to see more improvements/updates, the interface does offer a lot of functionality but is a bit awkward/unorganized. (keep in mind 99% of the time I personally am scanning an entire subnet, not an individual host) One major feature/function that needs to be added ASAP, is in port scan- we need the ability to have *multiple user defined custom port lists*. currently there is *only one* that the user can edit. additionally there are ~5 , mostly useless, entries/lists of ports the user can select. 4 of the 5 consist of over 80 ports (or is a range) and *the user can **not** edit the builtin port lists*. there needs to be more custom user defined port lists (or the ability for users to create new custom lists of ports to scan for). For example at some work sites I go to I need to scan a subnet for 80, 443, 8291. Other sites there might be 10 custom ports I need to scan for. currently the only option is to keep editing/re-typing all the ports, separated by commas, I need to scan for, each time. it would be much more efficient and useful if I could define three or four different custom port lists and just click whichever i need. The built-in port lists are huge and uneditable by the user, which makes them all but useless (for subnet scans). I really hope the author adds this feature, as I’ll always be looking for it when he posts new app updates. tks.Version: 1.10.3
✓ Very much thought and detail.There was a lot of thought and detail that went into this app, but there is much more left to go. While it has a lot of bells and whistles, the overall operation of the app is a bit lagy (and sometimes completely unresponsive) on my device, and a few others I have used. (My device is an iphone 4s). Whole most of the lag comes from the opening of the app (seems to take quite a while), occasionally there's a bit of lag while going through various options and functions. There can be some more optimization that can be done, clearly, but it's a nice app. If they would do the optimization required, I would give a 5 out of 5. Sadly though, they seem to be dodging this issue. Every time a new update comes out, I'm a little more displeased, seeing this is not fixed..Version: 1.9.9
✓ Interface sucksTiny print. Green, on green on more green. No option to change it. Really pretty in a sunny room on a shiny screen. Pure genius. Nice functionality, I think. Too bad it does not come with magnifying glass..Version: 1.10.9
✓ Few things neededIt needs to work in background mode. Or at the very least pause and resume if you switch apps. As it is now.. If you are in the middle of a large scan and you switch to another app, the scan stops and you have to restart it again from the beginning. Also, it would be nice to be able to see what its finding as it scans. you have to wait until its done to see any results. And if you stop it... It doesn't show any results from what it scanned so far.. So it needs work...Version: 1.9.3
✓ Confused!?!?!Not exactly sure wot the hell this App does, I think you need to know about Ip addresses, NAT and LAN stuff, which I know nothing about! I wish there was a information section so I know wot I am looking at. It seems very techie, if I knew wot I was looking at I would probably give it more stars..Version: 1.9
✓ Need light background, bigger fonts and editable Host namesIt's a great app specially since it lets you add MAC addresses for WOL in IOS 11.x. It needs to provide option to use a lighter background since the dark background is hard to read. Also bigger fonts for easier reading and finally a way to edit Host names etc to put more meaningful info on each host scanned..Version: 1.10.3
✓ CrashesI've got a couple of groups. One group is 300 large. The app becomes unstable when that group is accessed with or without being connected to the same network. I have a gig of flash ram available on a 2 nd gen 8gig iPod. App will crash consistently after a hard reset. It makes using the App pointless on large intranets. But otherwise good for querying around 100 machines. Good effort :o).Version: 0
✓ Not working!WiFi scanning does not work at all and error states that you are not connected to WiFi or LAN. Did not throw your money away..Version: 1.10.9
✓ ExpensiveIt's a good app but to compare with other similar app way too expensive!!!.Version: 1.9
