Get a clear view of every device on your network.
Network Atlas scans your local network and shows you exactly what's connected — computers,
phones, printers, smart home devices, servers, and everything in between. No command line
needed, just a clean Mac app that gets the job done.
HOW IT WORKS
Click scan. Network Atlas runs five discovery methods in parallel to detect devices across
your network. In about 30 seconds, you'll have a complete list with all the details that
matter.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE
• Device names and IP addresses
• MAC addresses with vendor identification
• Open ports and active services
• Hostnames you can customize for easy reference
BUILT FOR REAL-WORLD USE
→ Identify unknown devices showing up on your network
→ Find the IP address of a printer, NAS, or IoT device
→ Verify your smart home gear is actually online
→ Troubleshoot connection issues without guesswork
→ Keep a mental map of what's running on your LAN
A PROPER MAC APP
Native SwiftUI interface. Sortable table columns. Search filtering. Detail inspector. Fast,
responsive, and fits right in on your Mac.
PRIVACY RESPECTING
All scanning stays local to your network. No accounts. No cloud sync. No analytics. Optional
MAC vendor lookups are the only external requests, and those just match hardware IDs

This app has a great UI and generally works pretty well. It does not report MAC addresses, as allowed in iOS 27, and that’s a pretty glaring omission. But the real problem is, you have to start over by rescanning every time you open the app. It doesn’t matter if you’ve only ever used the application on the same network. Or that you just scanned an hour or 2 ago. It still doesn’t show the devices you previously scanned. It does save customized information for devices, but the opening screen is blank each time you open the app. I also reached out to the developer before posting this but that was 2 weeks ago and didn’t hear back.
• Macs are now recognized as Macs. A Mac with File Sharing or AirPlay
Receiver on used to show up as a NAS, a Smart TV, or a Phone. The app now
reads the hardware model Apple devices broadcast and gets it right.
• Smart home gear is identified: Espressif, Tuya, Shelly, and Sonoff
devices show as IoT devices; Wyze, Arlo, Reolink, Hikvision, and Dahua
devices as cameras. Far fewer "Unknown" rows.
• Scanning stays on the Wi-Fi network you selected, and multi-address
devices are shown with their address on that network.
• Rows update as information arrives instead of waiting for the next scan.
• The ping sweep can no longer stall a scan, and reports clearly when the
network refuses it.
