Network Analyzer review
Useful for Wi-Fi troubleshooting, but it does not provide security checks or monitoring alerts.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Network Analyzer is a mobile network-analysis app for iPhone and Android, aimed at home users and people diagnosing connectivity on a local Wi-Fi network. Its scanner checks IP addresses on the connected network and lists discovered devices, including available names, IP and MAC addresses, and manufacturer details. The app also brings together several diagnostic tools, making it relevant to users who want network visibility on a phone rather than a dedicated Wi-Fi security scanner.
The feature set leans toward troubleshooting: users can inspect Wi-Fi signal information and channel occupancy, run ping and visual traceroute with geolocation data, scan TCP ports, and use DNS lookup and Whois. Bonjour and UPnP/DLNA browsing can surface services and devices on the network. Android adds signal strength by channel; information and features vary by operating system. The Free version is ad-supported, while the paid Pro version for Android is ad-free and adds result exports plus scan and query history. The published plan details describe Pro as a paid app, without specifying its price here.
For buyers focused on finding connected devices and investigating connectivity, those tools offer a broad mobile toolkit. But the fit is limited for Wi-Fi security scanning: the app’s documented capabilities do not include checks for wireless security weaknesses or monitoring alerts. Choose it for on-device network discovery and diagnostics; look elsewhere if vulnerability checks or ongoing alerts are essential. Support channels include email and documentation.
