Router Watch: WiFi Scanner

WiFi scanner for your home network: see who’s on your Wi-Fi.
Scan the network you’re connected to in about 30 seconds and get a list of the devices that answer: phones, laptops, TVs, speakers, cameras, consoles and smart plugs. Label each one as Mine, Family or Unknown. Next time, anything new stands out at the top.

What it can’t do: Router Watch only lists what answers on the network you’re on. It can’t block or remove a device, it never logs in to your router, and it never scans outside your local network. Some devices sleep or don’t answer scans, and a phone can’t always see a device’s maker, so no scan can promise a complete list.

No account. No ads. Your device list stays on your phone.

How it scans
• Ping sweep of your local network (up to 1,024 addresses)
• Bonjour (mDNS) names, so a TV shows up as “Living Room TV”
• Device names from your router’s DNS and Windows network names
• UPnP / SSDP answers from smart TVs, speakers and routers

Included
• Unlimited scans of the network you’re on
• The first 5 devices of every scan, unknown ones first
• Names and labels for your devices
• Network health: Wi-Fi security type, whether your router’s login page opens over plain http, UPnP, and how many devices are still unknown. No made-up score.
• A step-by-step guide for a device you don’t recognize

Premium
• New device alerts: Router Watch checks your Wi-Fi in the background about every 15 minutes, hour or 6 hours while you’re connected (Android may delay checks to save battery) and notifies you when a check finds a device it hasn’t seen before
• The full device list on every scan
• Open ports summary: 20 common ports checked on that one device
• Scan history: who joined and who left since the last scan

When to check
After you give your Wi-Fi password to guests or a neighbour. When the internet feels slow. When you move into a shared flat or a rental. After you set up a new router, mesh system or smart home gadget. When a device you don’t recognize appears.

Privacy
• No account, no email, no sign-up.
• Scan results, device names and labels are kept on this phone. Nothing about your devices is uploaded.
• Android shows the Wi-Fi network name only with location permission. It’s optional, and Router Watch uses it only to read the network name.
• Delete all device data any time in Settings.
