Review summary

The app is praised as a powerful, ad-free networking toolkit with a broad feature set that aids daily troubleshooting. Users value its utility and long-standing reliability, offering tools like MAC lookup and interface details without ads. However, repeated complaints focus on a dated UI, removal of ARP and Device Manager in recent updates, compatibility gaps with Android 14/SDK targets, and iperf3 result reliability. Requests for updates, feature restoration, and a dark mode are common as the app ages.

Pros

Comprehensive multi-tool networking suite for testing and diagnosis
Ad-free experience
Valuable tools like MAC address lookup and interface information
Long-standing, trusted tool used by IT professionals
GUI-friendly alternative to terminal tools (easy for non-Termux users)

Cons

Outdated/ugly UI
Removal of key features like ARP and Device Manager in recent updates
Android 14/SDK compatibility lag
iperf3 results sometimes not shown or broken in latest version
Lack of dark mode / theme options

2025-02-20	An*****	The interface isn't great, and I wish it had a dark mode, but this app is 5x more functional for network testing than anything else I've tried. And no ads!

2025-01-12	Ja*****	No ads, has an assortment of unique networking-related tools (like a MAC address lookup, one time password, interface information which I don't know of any other Android app that works the same), a nice user interface if you aren't looking to dig around in the terminal using an something like Termux!

2024-12-26	Ne*****	Good but in need of some updates. Whois, for example, only seems to work with ARIN and doesn't return any useful information for IP addresses in RIPE's database. Please either update it (there seem to be quite a few requests for features/functionality) or open source it. Please don't let it stagnate.
