What network scanner app from the App Store do you use?

I have used Net Analyzer, but it stopped identifying my RPi as a PcP device. It sees the IP address but its name is N/A.

You may want to look into the useful range of (free) programs at:

I am away from home but I think I use their "Wireless Network Watcher" for a quick network inventory/status. It does list ethernet devices also.

I use Fing but not sure if it will work for you.

I no longer need one with Roon but..... - AbeCollins 19:32:38 01/15/24 (0)
I've had pretty good results with Fing network scanner on my iPhone but there are many others to choose from. The problem here is that we have SO SO many network devices that I have to scroll slowly and look closely at all the onscreen entries to find what I'm looking for.
Roon RAAT is a self discovering protocol. It automatically finds the device and its IP :

Roon 'sees' many devices and other protocols that it can play to on our network but I only Enable
the ones that I want. My Raspberry Pi and its IP address is circled above.

  Thanks
  
  IP Scanner identifies RPI as PcP, but my WiiM had to be labeled manually.

I've used Angry IP Scanner on both Mac (at home) and PC (at work) for decades. Old school, but it tells me what I need to know. I use Debookee Tools for home wifi analytics. Also, the browser-based UI from my Asus router has lots of useful info. A few years ago when I had an Apple router and mesh I used Airport Utility, which was fine at the time.
I suppose it depends on what you want to get out of it.

. . . in theory, practice and theory are the same; in practice, they are different . . .
