Angry IP Scanner is free and open source under the GPL v2 license, and it runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, so one tool can cover a mixed set of machines. Its fast ping sweeps across IP ranges make it a good fit for large address spaces, and it exports results. It is distributed from angryip.org rather than the App Store. If your work spans Windows and Linux machines as well as Macs, it is a strong choice.
As a native Apple app, IP Scanner by 10base-t runs on Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Vision Pro without a Java runtime. Each device shows its name, IP address, MAC address and manufacturer, and the app includes Port Scan, Wake-on-LAN, Ping, Bonjour service discovery and IPv6 support.
The free version has no feature restrictions and identifies up to 15 devices per scan. A one-time Pro purchase removes that limit on the platform where you buy it. IP Scanner Ultra removes it on every platform and adds Home Radar, which sends push alerts to iPhone and Apple Watch when a device joins or leaves, plus a morning briefing of overnight changes. Ultra also includes Remote Scans: a copy running on your Mac publishes its results to your own private iCloud container, and your other devices read them from there. Nothing passes through a 10base-t server.
No. They are separate products from different developers. IP Scanner is a native app for Apple devices from 10base-t interactive. Angry IP Scanner is a free, open source tool by Anton Keks for Windows, macOS and Linux.
For a Mac-first fleet, IP Scanner by 10base-t is the better fit. It runs natively on Mac, iPhone and iPad, identifies each device by name, IP address, MAC address and manufacturer, and includes Port Scan and Wake-on-LAN. If you also need one tool for Windows and Linux machines, Angry IP Scanner covers those platforms.
No. Angry IP Scanner runs on Windows, macOS and Linux and has no iPhone or iPad app. The Mac builds need macOS 11 or later and include the Java runtime.
Both have a free option. Angry IP Scanner is free and open source under the GPL v2 license. IP Scanner has a free version with no feature restrictions that identifies up to 15 devices per scan, and one-time Pro and Ultra purchases remove that limit.
Download it from the App Store. Older Mac versions are available from 10base-t.com/direct.
