Good "WiFi Analyzer" app for Apple products?

Hello community members!

Who out here has a good app for detecting SSID's and RSSI measurements in dB, when using iPad's or iPhones?

I've been a longtime Android user and have always been a fan of the free "WiFi Analyzer" app, but I have not been able to find one that is comparable, to suggest for my Apple using colleagues.

I see there are several paid-for and free "wifi apps" in the Apple store, but we're specifically looking for one that shows both SSID, as well as the Received Signal Strength level in a dB measurement.

Attached are some screenshots from my Wifi Analyzer and what we're looking for...

What do you guys use?

Thanks,

Brett

Hello Brett, I'd recommend you to consider NetSpot PRO for Mac. It is a professional Wi-Fi site surveyor, analyzer, and troubleshooter. Attached you can check out how it looks like. A free version is available as well, it helps you to get insight into the details of Wi-Fi networks around you and a channel overlap.
