Team review

" The wifi channels around you. "

The application has not yet detailed description, however the team assigned the note of 9 / 10. This note is based on the following criteria: Quality, Usefulness, Ease of Use, Privacy Concerns of user data (depending on the permissions required)..

The app is compatible with most Android devices running on.

Its weight is very light, less than a megabyte is sufficient to store and operate.

Its number of downloads in the Android Market (Google Play) is quite low. The application is either new, or limited to a specific area that only a few users are interested in.

Neutral review Ads ruin it. by anonym
Great app!! Deserves 5 stars. But unfortunately the ads ruin it. Would gladly pay for an ad free experience! Till that happens only 3 stars. 3/5
Negative review Won't work by anonym
Without location on. Why is that? You shouldn't need my location to show me WiFi signals. Seems sketchy. 1/5
Positive review Very useful by anonym
Indispensable tool for configuring a wireless network in order to avoid interference and channel congestion. 5/5
Neutral review Indispensable, but skeevy by anonym
This app is a must have for onsite support of Wi-Fi, it's a fantastic tool for divining overlap and signal strength issues. That said, why does this app need my location? Why does it fail to operate without it? 3/5
Positive review Needs location access by anonym
App can be very handy at times. Several reviewers complain about the location permission. It seems that the app needs this permission in order to get a detailed list of access points. That's not the fault of the app developer; it's the Android architecture. (Proof: if I disable location access on my rooted phone, the app just stalls while trying to get the list of access points.) 5/5
Positive review Excellent by anonym
Really helped optimise my wifi. :-) Sammy GS2 GS4 and GS5 5/5
Positive review Good tool by anonym
Used this to analyze a weak signal. Works great. Also a good tool to find out the best channels to set your router on. 5/5
Positive review Misread by anonym
This is not a Wife Analyzer like I thought I had searched for. However, this did prove to be a very useful app for checking WiFi signal strength and channel congestion. To be clear, it will not tell you a single thing about your wife. 4/5
Positive review Very good at its job.. by anonym

Positive review A must have! by anonym
If you want to understand the wifi signals around you, this is a must have tool! 5/5
Negative review Phantom APs? by anonym
I love the design of this wifi stumbler, but whenever I look at the list of APs there are many that always appear in the list no matter where I am. I'm not sure if others are having this issue. I compared the AP list from another wifi stumbler app and those Phantom APs don't show up on them. 2/5
Positive review Best Wi-Fi analyzer ever. by anonym
I hope passwords can also be analyzed... 5/5
Positive review Indispensable by anonym

Positive review very useful app by anonym
you can find, detect and map all the neighbours wi-fi networks 5/5
Positive review What "THEY" say is absolutely true... by anonym
within 5 minutes of downloading this app i discovered that channel 8 which my wireless router was broadcasting on was only 50% of the signal strength of channel 6. accessed the router through my browser, changed to channel 6, and viola! signal strength increased dramatically. this app is a class act! TYVM! 5/5
Positive review Useful app by anonym
This is the best WiFi analyzer I've used. Its easy to use and does what its suppose to do. Thank you for a great app! 5/5
Positive review Indispensable for unfamiliar situations like cafés by anonym
Exceedingly better than signal bars! A one-stop dashboard of your entire WiFi landscape, in a series of easy-to-read views. Just flick to any of five different screens for multiple perspectives on area WiFi coverage. One view provides a straightforward VU meter-style readout of your device's WiFi signal reception. Another view provides an at-a-glance readout listing all signals detected, including their SSID, channel number, MAC address and encryption schemes. This app is very-well developed and stable. 5/5
Neutral review Wifi Analyzer by anonym
It's a good app but I hate the adds below is there any way to remove it? 3/5
Positive review Top Notch ? by anonym
Helped me find the best channel. I use it frequently to make sure my connection is the best it can be. Plus, it make me look like a Wi-Fi genius when I'm troubleshooting someone else's Wi-Fi. The only thing I can think of that would make it better would if it identified the types of Wi-Fi (a, b, g, n, or ac) 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Very simple to use. Easy to understand. Found the best channel for my router! Thank you. 5 stars all day. 5/5
Positive review Great app for IT Pros by anonym
This app is one of many apps that are part of my IT Pro took bag. I use it to troubleshoot networking issues at clients location. It's helpful to be able to track down an access point or to look at how many APs are on the same channel. I'd highly recommend it to anyone. 5/5
Positive review Great by anonym
I love it. Good work peoples. Keep it up. Well done. 5/5
Positive review Awesome by anonym
Helped solve why my WiFi was so limited. Now I know what channel to statically assign, and helped while traveling as well 5/5
Positive review Really handy by anonym
I just wish it could do a more general spectrum analysis. It can only show 802.11 networks in standard channel sizes. I'd love to be able to avoid pesky analog devices and other noise too! (Might be limited by hardware.) Please consider adding 802.11 ah support when it comes out. 5/5
Positive review Great app by anonym
Super easy to use. Just helped us discover a noisy neighbor, change our frequency to avoid the traffic jam, and triple our throughput. 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Great app. Found all routers in the street used the same channel. Moved higher and now working even better than before 5/5
Positive review Very useful by anonym
Good for testing home WiFi coverage problems or when hunting for a strong signal on public WiFi. 4/5
Positive review Fantastic for analyzing and troubleshooting by anonym
Handy, great app. I was able to impress clients by showing them the data from this regarding their wireless networks. It goes a long way to show someone how much congestion there can be. I also fixed my Chromecast's connection issues with this! My Chromecast defaulted to 2.4 channel 6 and was conflicting with my router. 5/5
Positive review For router placement by anonym
This was great to confirm what I suspected, that placing the wifi router in the basement wouldn't provide a strong enough signal upstairs. I mean, that's obvious of course, but it helped to see the exact signal strength difference between the two locations: -30db right next to the router, to -60db upstairs where the tv is. Every 10db is a 10x drop in power, so that means a 1000x weaker signal, which is ridiculously huge. This means it's worth sucking up the ugliness of the router in my living room, in exchange for the huge difference in strength. Maybe I can put it in my cold air return.... :-) 5/5
Positive review by anonym
It feels, like, the rays, bro, and through manipulation and unblending of the cosmic waves, it makes sense of the Universe around you! Yeah! 5/5
Positive review Switching networks by anonym
I have two AP's with the same SSID and different MAC addresses (one's an extender). I'm unable to switch from one to the other using the Connector Library. It doesn't realize they're different AP's. 4/5
Positive review Best Wifi App! by anonym
Helps me to check my wifi signal issues. Best channel to use, etc. Only thing missing is a paid version without ads. I'd buy it. 5/5
Positive review Get it! by anonym
Without question, the best analyzer in the store. Must have for anyone doing anything with WIFI. 5/5
Positive review Must-have applixation by anonym
Far and away the best WiFi analysis tool I've used. The only thing missing is a version I could pay for that doesn't show ads. 5/5
