IP Scanner

Excellent

Either I'm as dense as a piece of wood, or this software is non-intuitive and very frustrating to use. I've moved from LANscan, a free(-ish) tool that I've been using for years, until they started charging for more than the bare minimum of features. So this app, IP Scanner - where to start? There is no "scan now" button, it's just a menu pick from the top lvel of the toolbar. It doesn't show the IP address range that it's scanning over. I assume this is because it's just using my MacBook's current subnet, but it doesn't tell you this, so when a scan comes back completrely blank it's hard to know how to start diagnosing. I run a small community nertwork, and when looking for problems I'm frequently switching my Mac between the WAN (172.16.x.x) and LAN (192.168.x.x) domains. So again, if a scan comes up blank I can't immediately see if it's scanned the right IP address range or not. Add to this some other frustrating issues, like the function to clear the current scan results is buried in yet another toolbar menu pick rather than a dedicated button on the app's home screen. I need to work quickly when diagnosing network issues, and this app certainly doesn't allow me to do that. Very frustrating as I suspect that the LAN/port scanning engine at the heart of the app is very robust, but the GUI just makes it unusable.

I can see items sitting on the router . But no option to remove or block.

Sadly I have to report the application crashes now after detecting 12-15 devices I Here

Having used it for some time it’s very good and displays the IP address for the device in use. Very helpful & useful ! There is another App which I’m interested but I don’t have an Apple Watch & never thought of buying one. 5 APPS IN ONE sounds good except the Apple Watch. Why doesn’t it say FOR WINDOWS TOO & ALL PLATFORMS. FOR ALL APPLE & WINDOWS DEVICES? It looks good and the asking price is £19.99 on Apple iPad Pro and wait for a response & all the information from the developer before buying and hear from you ASAP! All thanks to the super mighty brains! Technology is so advanced, evolving and more & more becoming more or less simpler or complicated. Whatever the developers say leave it all to the super mighty brains to make the lives of the SIMPLE PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF EASIER SIMPLER AND MORE ENJOYABLE!

Whilst it works mostly fine on iOS, it’s definitely less stable under MacOS. On iOS if you scan on two separate devices, they do not always show the same results, even though the settings are the same. On MacOS, the app regularly “Forgets” the custom names assigned to MAC addresses, even when the IP address remains the same. This is frustrating and a shame as the Mac version appears to be more accurate in the devices found. There is also a little problem of “Ghosting” where a device is reported even after it has been removed from the network, and removed manually from the app (including after rebooting). It certainly has its uses and is probably one of the better IP scanners out there, but it’s a shame it’s not as stable as it could be.

Starts doing it's thing with no configuration. Can do portscans. Limited functionality, but does what it does very well. Great work devs.

I like this app

excelente

KEEPS CRASHING AND CLOSING!
