Network Lab
LAN Scanner, Ping & DNS
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Discover devices, services and trouble spots on your LAN. Now with Wake-on-LAN, DNS records, snapshots, CSV export and a cleaner privacy-first interface.
Network Lab is a privacy-first LAN scanner and network toolbox for iPhone, iPad and Apple silicon Mac.
Use it to discover devices on your Wi-Fi or wired network, inspect Bonjour and Zeroconf services, monitor favourite hosts and troubleshoot common connectivity problems without creating an account or uploading scan data to a cloud service.
What Network Lab helps with:
- Scan your local subnet and identify active hosts
- Browse Bonjour / Zeroconf services and service records
- Inspect IP addresses, MAC addresses, vendors, ports and host details where available
- Save network snapshots, compare scans and export results as CSV
- Monitor favourite hosts for reachability
- Run ping, traceroute, DNS lookup, whois and bandwidth tests
- Send Wake-on-LAN magic packets to sleeping devices
- Open SSH sessions to known hosts
Network Lab is built for home labs, small offices, developers, admins and curious users who want a clear view of their own network. The core LAN scanner stays available for free, while Pro unlocks the extended diagnostic tools.
