About this product:
Network Analyzer can help you diagnose various problems in your wifi network setup, Internet connectivity, and also detect various issues on remote servers thanks to the wide range of tools it provides.
It is equipped with a fast wifi device discovery tool, including all the LAN device's addresses, manufacturers and names, together with the Bonjour/DLNA services they provide. Further, Network Analyzer contains standard net diagnostic tools such as ping, traceroute, port scanner, DNS lookup, whois, and network speed test. Finally, it shows all neighboring wi-fi networks together with additional details such as signal strength, encryption and router manufacturer to help discovering the best channel for a wireless router. Everything works with both IPv4 and IPv6.
Reviews:
Rated 4.8 stars overall based on over 12,000 reviews. -Corwin
I have used Ubiquiti's excellent and free WifiMan for several years. From the description, this seems to do the same things. Detect uncongested channels, see the strength of all of the APs around me, etc.
Any particular reason to use this instead?

Same software, just a free vs .99 version. Not easily seeing what you get with the .99 version.

Yes. I bought this the last time it was on sale for 99 cents about a year ago. I just do odd jobs and help people out with random network things in my spare time and I've used it several times. in addition to the wireless part it's also an ip scanner with easy to use filterable results with saved history. If you ever want a trustworthy app to do those kind of things, this one does them and is nicely packaged. And yes I'd recommend it for 99 cents. I have not used that ubiquiti tool specifically so I'm going to go check it out now. i do use their access points and have used edgeswitches/routers.

looks much better and more useful than similar apps that I have used before... good timing as I just had to factory reset my google mesh network and this will make setting up all the IP cameras and smart devices so much easier.
Not worth it for me but perhaps for someone who really needs traceroute and some of those other things that I never actually end up using on my phone for light-duty wireless site surveys.
I've used "wifi analyzer" by farproc for 5+ years now for all manner of IT tasks and it gets the job done. Usually with the phone I am just trying to check channel strength/interference, see what APs our mobile devices are connecting to in a certain location, etc. Anything much beyond that and you are likely moving to another device or logging into your wireless controller.
In any event, here is the link to wifi analyzer, it's been around forever, has been downloaded a bunch, and is still free. https://play.google.com/store/app...i.analyzer
*Edit: It looks like my farproc app is suffering from some "permissions creep" in newer versions so the open source "WiFi Analyzer" might be a better choice at this point. I dislike when apps grab more permissions than they really need, even if android does a better job of taming them now. https://play.google.com/store/app...fianalyzer

I guess the video is nice so kudos for that addition but OP attached the Play store link and there are almost always screenshots in the Play store listing. This app is no exception and has screenshots available there.
