IP Scanner scans your local area network to determine the identity of all machines and internet devices on the LAN. Powerful results, yet easy and intuitive to use.

Key features:
• Extremely fast scan results
• Customizable results - assign your own names and icons to discovered devices
• Save and consult past scans
• PING, Wake on LAN and Port Scan tools built right in
• Option to open a device in browser, VNC or other applications
• Save and import custom device lists, or sync via iCloud

• Add custom network ranges

• Clean, professional design that is super easy to use

Whether you’re a casual home user or a network professional, IP Scanner is all about customizing the way you view and analyze your network. You may apply custom names and icons to the devices on your network and adjust the type and amount of information you see in the network overview; don't need to see the MAC address column... don't display it! Text too small... make it larger! We also include a whitelist feature that lets you filter out known and trusted devices to reveal new or unexpected ones, a great way to easily identify unwanted network visitors.

IP Scanner can be used in a variety of modes, including:
• A quick overview of which devices are currently on the network, and remotely via the Apple Watch companion app.
• A “cumulative mode” that shows network changes over time, including options to display devices which were previously present but now no longer visible.
• Schedule automatic snapshots of the network state at regular intervals; save results locally or to the cloud.
