About this app

Optimize your WiFi network using WiFi Analyzer (open-source) by examining surrounding WiFi networks, measuring their signal strength as well as identifying crowded channels.

Users' privacy and security is a huge concern these days and WiFi Analyzer (open-source) is designed to use as few permissions as possible. It asks for just enough to perform the analysis. Plus, it is all open source so nothing is hidden! Most notably, this application does not require access to internet, so you can be sure it does not send any personal/device information to any other source and it does not receive any information from other sources.

WiFi Analyzer is under active development by volunteers.
WiFi Analyzer is free, has no-ads and does not collect any personal information.
WiFi Analyzer is not a WiFi password cracking or phishing tool.

Better than many adware klunkers. It found a hidden channel, unlike the klunkers, that intermittently blasts at same dB level on my preferred channel that took ages to set up away from others, swamping my link and causing regular slowdowns. Suspect it may be the recently installed power meter with net access which is just a few feet away from my modem.

It does what is advertised to do. But i wish there was a way to force switch wifi within the app. Certain mesh networks have both 2.4 and 5 capabilities but dont give u the option to choose which to connect to. Would be nice if we could force the one you want

This was and still is, a great tool for moving my network(s) on to better channels. The only problem is that it thinks that networks with the "Enhanced Open" security protocol is completely insecure.
