WiFi Analyzer (open-source)

Edit: someone on the development team sent a comment super fast. My problem is Androids fault, not the app. I also missed the experimental "disable WiFi scan throttling". That seems to have fixed it. Great app. Original review:Loved this app, but on my Motorola it no longer updates the AP list in any sort of reasonable time. I have to kill the app and reopen then sometimes it updates. I can leave a building with WiFi and 20 minutes later it still shows the access points that I'm no longer near.

The only app I could find which shows the channel width used by each network. Other apps only show the "primary" channel for each network. Short of a true RF noise analysis, looking at the primary channels in use alone isn't enough to tell which channels are free. This app also has good features for filtering and pausing updating.

The app monitors detectible wifi signals in real time. Another reviewer claimed the app no longer does this, but it does it for me. It works great, has options to show results in chart form by channel and number of connections on each along with signal strength and another graphically presented. It's excellent, very quick on my rooted and debloated moto Z2 Force on stock android 8.0.0 -- I rated 4 rather than 5 because I'm in info systems and have seen (very expensive, not open source) software!

LOVE it, BUT there is room for improvement. Mostly the page displays and the... 2.4G channel choices. Telling them to use 5G is kind of... Obnoxious. ALSO in the channel graphs. NEED to give a way to move it UP more on the screen. Can NOT see the highest transmission, also SOME way to READ the Wifi names. They cover each other it then makes it nearly impossible to select the right one. I am joining the Beta. STILL love it.

Not updating signal strength. Go get an app called wifiman by Ubiquiti Networks instead. It is the best tool I've used. Great interface in its simplicity while relaying all the details needed. Thanks for the reply from WiFi analyzer. Despite changing the developer setting, I cannot get the app to update signal strength on either a Pixel 1 or a OnePlus 7T which are both on Android 10.

This app was amazing but it no longer works with the latest Android software OS. I noticed the issue was brought up in the FAQ 2 years ago with older versions. Uninstalled the app since it is useless now. I would have hope that it would be updated to support newer versions of Android but since this issue is 2 years old I am giving up on the app.

My issue with wireless interference was RESOLVED by using this app!! Had been dealing for a while with tablet, phone, laptop intermittently losing internet connection due to a hidden SSID sometimes appearing on the same channel despite channel changes (using a different analyzer), and WOW, all this time, it was my years-old roku stick (and not my neighbor lol) and which was clearly identified by this app! Many thanks!!
