WiFi Mapper — Wireless Survey Tool
See exactly where your WiFi is strong, weak, or dead — mapped in full color onto your floor plan.
WiFi Mapper turns your iPhone into a professional wireless survey tool. Scan entire buildings with multi-room LiDAR or upload your own floor plans, then walk through recording signal readings. The app builds a smooth, color-coded heatmap — green where coverage is strong, fading through yellow and orange to red where it drops off — so problem areas are obvious at a glance.
How It Works:
1. Scan rooms with LiDAR — walk through doorways and the app automatically detects each new room
2. Tap your location on the map to record WiFi signal readings
3. View a smooth, interpolated heatmap showing coverage across your entire space
4. Run speed tests at key locations to measure real-world throughput
5. Export a professional PDF report
Key Features:
• Multi-Room LiDAR Scanning — Scan an entire floor in a single session. Walk room to room and the app automatically detects doorway crossings, captures each space, then merges everything into one spatially accurate floor plan using Apple's StructureBuilder
• Unified Floor Plan View — See all scanned rooms positioned exactly where they are relative to each other, with WiFi coverage mapped across the whole building
• Smooth Signal Heatmap — High-resolution, Ekahau-style color gradient from green (excellent) to red (dead zone)
• PHY Rate Monitoring — See real TX/RX link rates, noise floor, SNR, and Wi-Fi standard (802.11ax/be) via live Shortcuts integration
• Speed Testing — Measure download, upload, and latency at each survey point
• Upload Floor Plans — Import your own blueprints or photos and survey on top of them
• Multi-Room Projects — Organize rooms into projects for building-wide analysis with combined heatmaps and statistics
• PDF Reports — Export detailed wireless reports with heatmaps, per-room breakdowns, band analysis, and AP detection
• Access Point Roaming — Track when your device switches between APs in real time
• Scan & Go — Record WiFi signal readings automatically as you walk during a LiDAR scan
• iOS Shortcuts — One-tap setup for continuous live PHY data
Built For:
• Home users finding and fixing dead zones
• IT professionals planning access point placement
• Network engineers documenting wireless coverage
• Property managers assessing building connectivity
Pro subscription unlocks unlimited projects, full PDF export, and advanced analytics.

This is such a great idea but such a bad implementation with so much potential. You spend a while doing a 3D LIDAR scan of your space that looks like it could be great. Then the app converts it into a 2-D drawing that looks like a two-year-old did it with crayon that barely resembles the floor plan. The UI is just terrible and the automatic scan for Wi-Fi while you do the lidar simply does not work it says it's great everywhere when it's not - even based on its own data it's not. So the net result is completely useless. You can't edit it. And it's factually inaccurate. The best feature is you can cancel during the free trial and avoid paying a stunning $9.99 a month for it should be a grade 5 class project.
hat's New in Version 1.4.5
Multi-Room LiDAR Scanning
Scan an entire floor in a single session. Walk through doorways and the app automatically detects each new room, then merges everything into one spatially accurate floor plan. All rooms maintain their real-world positions so you can see WiFi coverage across your whole building at once.
• Auto room detection at doorways
• Unified floor plan with all rooms positioned accurately
• Combined heatmap and coverage statistics across rooms
• Per-room detail pages in PDF reports
