Who Is On My WiFi App Reviews

This application is unusable on OS X. A memory leak exists that causes the application to steadily consume system memory, even while idle. It continues to do so until the system has no more memory to allocate, at which point apps and services begin to fail, potentially causing your system to crash. The developers were alerted to this severe bug about eight months ago, and provided a “sorry about that, we had no idea” type of response. As of today, the problem hasn’t been fixed. In fact, the application has not been updated in 18 MONTHS - the lastest version is dated January, 2015. This app is unusable and the developers are irresponsible. Don’t waste your money.

I have found this app. very useful. I don’t understand the negative ratings at all. Apparently some users do not understand the WiFi World and MAC addresses. Once identified (yes it requires some insight and checking) everythning run smoothly. A log review option would be an added benifit and helpful, but not a problem for the price. I believe it is a great free app. For free it does a great job. 5 Stars all the way from me for the Mac version. Maybe the negative are from the Windows Version.

Essentially this is a solid program, but it is a much more useful program than it’s name implies. It can be used to detect any clients across a network, not just WiFi. The name is a little rinky dink and honestly undersells the program. Also, after running the program for a few days it was at over 3 GB memory utilization. This is why I do not use this product anymore, but hopefully that will be fixed in a future update. Still useful, but I wouldn’t run it on startup due to the memory issue. Implement better garbage cleanup for memory and this will be a 100% app.

This programs is simple and easy, but only scan the main network and then stop. It doesn’t scan all possible exisiting sub networks components. On the description picture, all components are under the same networks with adresses like "192.168.1.x " , if there is a sub network with automatic HTCP adress like "192.168.2.x » it doesn’t succeed to found the existing components under it. I think it should be a very good improvement , an this program would then be very great.

Nowhere to be seen. Support is usless because it is for an older version!

Everything works well and efficiently, thanks.

It tells me that I’m not on a local network, all the while being, well, on my usual WiFi.

Easy to use and very useful to spot intruders on your wireless network.

Sulla beta di yosemite non funziona. Peccato. On Yosemite Beta it list my network adapter insted of the devices attached to the network.

This is one of those apps that has a lot of potential but totally falls short on performance. You can identify a connected device but it will not remember it when you close the program and reopen it. Also sloppy glitches like the “add our online services by visiting our website” - but then nothing happens when you click on the link. Also there’s no way to remove a device that you see connected that you don’t recognize. Good concept overall but it needs a lot of work.

Effectively identifies other connected devices on the network. Would be nice, though, if you could use it to block users form the network.

I used this utility in conjunction with my Airport Utility to identify clients on my network. It’s nice that this is statefull, and accumulates data over time. I’d like to see an export facility, or at least a print option, so that I can take the data I have entered & save it, or relate it to my Airport data. That’s a relatively easy easy addition, so maybe that could make it into the next version. It would be really nice if this could merge in data from the Airport Extreem, for example getting the addition fields like Airport Name which are known to the Airport Utility. I’m not sure if there’s an API for that. It’s going to be interesting to see if this picks up any surprises in the next week.

This works. It totally does what it promises and tells you the manufacturer of each device it finds on the network (albeit a router, TV, laptop, desktop, tablet, smartphone, Dropcam or other IP camera etc…). I LOVE IT!

Add icon for Printers.. more icons to choose from with Number 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 inside Screen of icon.. Most homes have several iPhones, Laptops, Desktops, iPads, WiFi Printers, ? iWatch….etc… Thanks for this App...

I rarely ever write app store reviews, a positive one rarer still. This app deserves some praise. They kept it very basic, It’s simply doing a continous ping scan at a set interval and showing a notification when a device appears that you have not tagged as “Known”. If you are running an open wifi AP this could be very useful. However, I’ve found it fills an awesome role as a wifi doorbell. For example, my partner has our network saved in her phone. When she arrives home from work, it auto-connects to the network, and if I leave her marked as Unknown, I’ll get a notification that pop ups and translated, tell me “Time to hide the porn, wifey is home!” The only negative part of this app is that I want it to do MORE, like fing (another similar app). I want it to do port scans on connected computers, which they probably don’t have because it would require admin access and a libpcap layer. I want it to have more icons for devices. I want it to have an export feature and to keep logs. I would pay for these features. Unfortunately they have chosen the subscripton model for the premium service, the same as fing. For the totally not-low price of $10/month you can get cloud logging and some other stuff that a simple home user like myself simply doesn’t need (well, not for $120/year!). Please make a version of this app aimed at home power users who dont necessarily need all the fancy enterprise level stuff, but want more out of this app. The space you are trying to function is, frankly, better served by fing and others in my opinion and there is a vaccuum when it comes to home users with less than 20 devices to monitor. Add some features to the app, allow people to save logs to a local network server and charge $10 for it and I’ll buy it for days. This app slaughters other contenders I’ve seen on the app store trying to boast the same features with neutered functionality like a device limit. This app is clean, basic, and just works. Kudos for that, it’s hard to find on the app store. I haven’t tested whether it can recognize a device by the mac address if the ip changes, as it will, with DHCP. If it can’t please get on that. Also, where is the OUI lookup???

App did exactly as stated !! Awesome see ALL connected devices on my Apple Airport Utility… total “A” !!

Does not work for more then 1 minute. Freezes every time I open it.

Ability to edit (and correct) description. More device types (editable list?) e.g. Switches, Home Automation devices, Servers. Additional columns in display. Vendor/Manufacturer (with ability to update “unknown” mfr?)

Had it working well in 1.0.0 in Mac OS 10.10.1 except the names I gave to devices sometimes didn’t save. Now with Version 1.1.0 it opens but hangs up and shows as Unresponsive in Activity Monitor. 75% to 115% of CPU on Core2Duo iMac and when I checked the Momory usage it got up to 2 GB real memory and 10 GB virual and was still creaping up. Looks like it has a bad memory leak or has a really bad routine going. Tried to run after restart and same problem. This Bug Fix version appears to have added worse bugs. Look forward to it being fixed as it was nice when it worked. Now it’s a good way to waste CPU cycles and Memory.

At first I gave this app one star, the program just kept locking up and giving me the spinning wheel. After waiting for over five minutes the wheel goes away and it starts working.
