Comments on Network Scanner for Android

★★★★★ Paul R · Feb 27, 2026
This scanner is the fastest and most informative scanner of five I tried. All devices on the LAN are identified. Most critical is the IP address of an ink jet wireless printer the finally works via DHCP addressing which of course changes each startup. A true lifesaver!
★★★★★ Ankit Bhandari · Apr 10, 2026
It's app helping me when my laptop battery shutdown, and I need to know all connected devices which is connected to network
★★☆☆☆ vlad hateg · Jun 25, 2026
They use some freaky Russian or something ad-provider that cannot be blocked with a custom DNS. There are more than enough apps that do the same thing, and you can use them without having to endure ads (if you are clever enough). Also, it shows no info about the devices on the network. Other apps show at least a bit of info that can help with identifying which device is that.
★☆☆☆☆ Paul Armstrong · Nov 28, 2025
Ads that look like malware... only scanned network once and uninstalled
★☆☆☆☆ Adam Ski · Nov 30, 2025
What a creepy app. It forces you to install and install other apps with so many permissions,

Description by First Row Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
App will find all hosts in your home network or in selected IP range. It can be used not only to know who are using your WiFi and learn more about every device, but also for professional tasks: dynamically port scanning and ability to filter hosts by opened ports allows to find a server of needed service in selected network. IP scanner supports 4 modes for scan - arp read, icmp ping, udp ping, dns request. Also you can select used dns server manually to scan your private networks. This is only little part of abilities of this network scanner.

• Ping
• Traceroute
• Port scanner
• IP calculator
• Wake On Lan
• Network information screen
