App works great, your able to get notices and see when new devices access the network your on. You can even block the device. Hey, if your kids are suppose to be off line at a certain time and connect after cut off then block their wireless device when your notified they tried to get back on.

Thus shows me every device on my network. I have it setup to notify me when a new device grabs an IP address.

Just a simple little app that does what it promises. . . In less time than it takes to find the installed app (uh, yeah, I have a few more pages than the factory install!) it shows you all you need to know. I didn't think it would matter that much to me, but I was curiously relieved to see I was hacker-free! And no useless, memory-wasting "bells and whistles" to bloat it up. To address a previous review concern, I don't think the app can provide any more information than what the connected device is "pinging;" if I wasn't ...

Labeling doesn’t work correctly.

I renamed 1 device. The next time I opened the app ALL my devices had that same name. Not good but I laughed. Deleting and going with the Fing app.
I like the app but it has a few bugs

Sometimes it shows the name of the devices and then later lists those same devices as “unknown”. Whenever you try to edit the name of one device it gives all the devices in the list that name regardless of each device having it’s own static IP address.

Good app. Wish it had option for a text (alert) to go out if an unrecognized person hacked into your wifi. I can't always be checking the app or its logo. It would give me a better sense of security. Thank you.
Excellent

I've tried others but this is the only one that is dependable. It has caught a device that isn't mine twice. I blocked it. It's easy to use and even sees my roku.

I had unknown people using my wifi. I noticed this when all of a sudden my video streaming and Sling tv got sluggish. After I changed my network settings I downloaded this app. Simple and basic, all I need to know is when something enters my wifi.
Great App
Iz-man!

This app is messed up. I set a name for one of the devices showing on the wifi list and all the device names change to that name. Fix this please thx.
Names of devices flawed

It appears to detect devices using my wi-fi accurately but it does not “name” them accurately. I opened the app this morning and all devices were called Roku. I corrected the name for one and it renamed all of them with the same name. Tried again, same result. I don’t remember the IP addresses of all my devices so this app is useless to me if I have to pull up my computer or use another app to figure out if these are “approved” devices.
