Quickly scan your network!
Lightweight Wi-Fi Scanner helps you quickly and clearly discover devices connected to your current Wi-Fi access point. No payment or sign-up required!
The app scans your local network segment to show devices that are reachable from your phone’s active Wi-Fi connection. This works great on traditional home networks.
Features:
- Discover devices reachable on your current Wi-Fi access point
- View IP addresses, hostnames, and advertised network services
- Fast, lightweight scanning with minimal battery usage
- Uses standard Apple networking APIs, no special permissions required
- Minimal storage requirements (less than 3 mb)
Runs entirely on-device; no data is sent to external servers
Mesh networks: Some mesh Wi-Fi systems isolate clients by access point. In these cases, only devices on the same access point as your iPhone may appear.
LW Scanner is intended for use on networks you own or have permission to manage.
