About this app

WiFiman is here to save your network from sluggish surfing, endless buffering, and congested data channels. With this free-to-use (and ad-free) app, you can:

* Detect available WiFi networks and Bluetooth LE devices instantly.
* Scan network subnets for additional details on detected devices, such as Bonjour, SNMP, NetBIOS, and Ubiquiti discovery protocols.
* Connect to your UniFi network remotely via Teleport - a free, zero-configuration VPN.
* Conduct download/upload speed tests, store results, compare network performance, and share insights with others.
* Relocate your access points (APs) to nearby data channels to instantly increase signal strength and reduce traffic volume.
* Test the connection speed between your UniFi Dream Machine or UDM Pro and mobile devices.
* See enhanced details about all of the Ubiquiti devices on your network (UniFi, AmpliFi, AirMAX, EdgeMAX, EdgeRouter, EdgeSwitch, UISP, AirCube, AirFiber).

Ratings and reviews

It's OK. ...Just don't have high expectations. Scanning updates are quite a bit slower than in some apps, but usable. The real disappointment was the "AR" heat mapping. It technically produces a heat map, but *extremely* minimalist. A blob shape roughly representing the area scanned with colors corresponding to strength. No indication of AP, SSID, 2.4/5/6g. No lines for walls nor ability to add, nr export the generated "map." Overall, less useful than just looking at the network list imho.

I tried half a dozen apps of this type, and they all required enaibling location to measure the Wi-Fi signal strength. There is no technical reason for this; it is needed by the ads to tie your behavior to a location. This app does not do that. Thank you! It has an intuitive UI, easy to navigate, easy to read. Good job.

This app is by far the best WiFi monitoring app that I have used. It has so many features and gives so much more information than it's competitors. It also has a very clean looking UI. My only issue is that their privacy policy is too vague and generic. Since this app requires so many permissions, I would like to have a listing of what data is being sent back. However, I trust Ubiquiti and would recommend this app to everyone.
