What to look for in an iPad WiFi scanner

Why IP Scanner is the best WiFi scanner for iPad

IP Scanner has been the professional's network scanner on Apple platforms for over 15 years, and it's fully native on iPad. Open it on the WiFi you want to check and it instantly lists every connected device, phone, laptop, TV, smart-home gadget, with its name, IP address, MAC address and vendor. Assign custom names and icons, then use Ping, Port Scan and Wake-on-LAN to dig deeper. It all runs locally and privately, with no account and no ads.

A note on "WiFi scanner"

If you specifically want to map WiFi signal strength or channels (an RF heatmap), that's a different category of tool. But if you mean "scan my WiFi to see the devices on it", which is what most people want, IP Scanner is the best native option for iPad.
