WiFi On Demand
Finding a free WiFi network while on vacation can be a nightmare. Using advanced GPS technology, AirRadar scans and places all networks on a map. While walking or driving, AirRadar automatically updates the location of networks when it finds a better signal elsewhere.
Open networks are clearly marked with a green dot, and closed networks with a red dot. Simply throw the laptop on the passenger seat before leaving the house for the day, and after a day of driving, have a comprehensive map of open networks!
Enhance Home WiFi
In modern households, it's common for families to have a WiFi router. In apartment buildings and dense city areas, hundreds of WiFi signals can often be picked up from a single spot.
AirRadar can provide insight to optimizing your home network and reducing interference from other signals. The calmest, or even unused, WiFi channels are presented with every scan.

I enjoy the ease of use. A really wonderful tool for me.
Using this app, I was able to find a good channel for my network no problem. No noise, no hassle, no issues. Highly recommended.
A rare gem in a sea of awkward and finicky wireless apps.
A workhorse application. I use it a lot to scan and tune my WiFi network. Gives me a total overview of the local channels and neighbours. Allows me to manually set channel to optimal and avoid interference.
Pro: Gives a far clearer picture of my wifi situation than the software built into my MacBook Pro. Con: A lot of the information it gives is meaningless to a non-computer-professonal (i.e., what's the difference between Channel 1 and Channel 11). Perhaps I'd get more out of the information if it were explained.
Very Useful
I struggle with my network - having a large house and a bad provider (BT). I use AirRadar, iStruggle and WiFi scanner. Each provides useful information that the others don't. In Airradar I like the categories one can use (ac, g, n, open). It works fine where it overlaps with the others.
good for scanning network interconnect!
Networking apps in general tend to be ugly and clunky. This is neither. I love it!
Scans with so much detail that it’ll make an expert of me in no time.
Our manual is always expanding! While we strongly believe our products as so intuitive you shouldn't need a manual, there are exceptions now and then. If you feel there is something missing from the documentation, please contact us.
