What WiFi Scanner is
WiFi Scanner is desktop software from AccessAgility LLC for viewing wireless signal, interference, coverage, and possible causes of WiFi problems. Its live access point grid shows signal, channel, width, security, vendor, and last-seen details, with alerts for interference and weak security. WiFi Survey and Planner support walk-through and predictive coverage heatmaps, AP-on-a-Stick capture, and post-validation heatmaps. Copilot presents diagnostic action cards by category, with live finding counts and recommendations that respond to filters. Performance tools cover throughput, latency, jitter, packet loss, and network quality; LAN discovery can identify switches, access points, and other equipment. Users can share a live scan through a WebViewer link without requiring the viewer to install the app, and export CSV files or reports. The software supports Windows 10/11 on a 64-bit host and macOS 13 or later on Apple Silicon or Intel. A 7-day trial includes the full feature set and requires no credit card. Afterward, scanning continues in the background, but viewing live results requires a paid licence. Core costs $195 a year, billed once rather than as a subscription.
