Excellent for the monthly review of the Wi-Fi channel used. Allows you to see the channels used by neighbors in range and select the Wi-Fi channel that gives you the best bandwidth and least overlap with your neighbors.

It's not a bad app, but this thing's incessant fetish with demanding my location to let me use it when I know for a fact that it absolutely does not need it. Every other Wi-Fi analyzer app doesn't hard require location just to show me what frequencies are around me only when I would like to map out the interference within an area but in those apps, if I tried to use that feature, then I would try to turn it on, but I don't care for it.

This is the app you never knew you needed. Sketchy Wi-Fi? Learn what channels are, why they are important and how to use them. It's not hard. With 2.4 Ghz being massively crowded, I see a Samsung Fridge hogging half of my 2.4Ghz - not mine... You get bad performance, akin to traffic jams! Channel switching lets you skip the jam, power ahead. Better still, go 5 or 6 Ghz though most smart stuff still relies on 2.4Ghz

Good, but slow to update. It also keeps asking to report back my GPS location so all the SSIDs can be sent back. Who is all this Wi-Fi info being sold to? That data is obtained deceptively. To show a signal strength, you monitor RF, not send a copy of what I can hear at my address. It also stays running and reports SSIDs heard while I am out.

Fake results showed hidden networks but other apps showed the real networks by their names

Wi-Fi analyzer but wants location??? Shuts down if you deny location access???? Scam. Scam. Scam. "Open source" implies transparency - usually. You don't give a reason why you need location, so I'm out. Uninstalled!!!

A gentleman by extreme internet who has stocked me for a total of five years, broke in and my Kent land Indiana picture. He recorded the entire last four years via Media companies and has stolen 5 years worth of intellectual property value. He has a bit at me relentlessly for months and breaks into the jail systems to falsify documents now he harassed everybody. He is a not a billing specialist. He is a Jerk stealing.
