About this app

Network Explorer is an easy-to-use and comprehensive network scanning and reporting utility. Among the features provided are:

1. Wi-Fi networks scanning (including a dynamic signal strength graph)
2. Wi-Fi devices scanner (including a port scanning function)
3. Bonjour services discovery
4. Wi-Fi Direct devices discovery
5. Bluetooth devices scanning
6. BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) devices scanning

Please note that this app requests location permissions because it is possible to determine a user's location based on proximity to publicly available Wi-Fi networks. Any app that provides network scanning functions like this one will also require location permissions. This is a requirement enforced by Google. Network Explorer does not attempt to actually determine, save or transmit the user's location even when the location permission is given.

Ratings and reviews

Doesnt do a whole lot. All the devices are uncategorized or unknown, except 3. no manufacturer listed. just mac addresses which are almost no use and relative signal strength (but no explanation). it works ok just not much work happening. turn on location if its not working at all.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's 5 Stars for sure. Works perfectly every time. None better in PlayStore. I've used tons of these Wi-Fi & Network Apps in the past and THIS one truly is, by a landslide, the absolute best. Huge thanks to Mr. Wixted from a true Android Green Robot fan. ✓

App did absolutely nothing. I installed, played with all the settings, couldn't get it to work. All is said was Wi-Fi not connected, but it was. Do not download this app. You'll waste your time!
