Why does Apple need to allow this kind of low-level access on a consumer device when a Mac can do what you want? That would be a huge hassle for Apple and its customers if that level of software were allowed. That's a good point and quite applicable to your original question. The scanner I have on my Mac does that, and shows multiple SSIDs and channels at the same time. Photoshop because they aren't "professional" tools? Does that make iPhoto or Photos useless vs. Why don't they use Photoshop? Because they don't need it, the cost, or the complexity, to achieve what they want. The scanner I have on my Mac does that, and shows multiple SSIDs and channels at the same time.Īs a comparison, millions of people use iPhoto or Photos. I have not been able to have it show channels, which is the most basic level of comparing interference. etresoft you said iOS already shows SSIDs and signal strength. Not everyone needs professional level tools to do something useful. But I've found a basic scanner on my Mac to be very helpful, and I think having one on an iPhone would be as well. Sure, if I were setting up, say, an entire corporate campus for WiFi, then professional tools would be a help, maybe a requirement. My interest is something as simple as what I found at the coffee shop, that they were set up on the same channels as the store next door. To both LACAllen and etresoft, I think you are getting a lot deeper than what I intended. we're having trouble keeping the flimflam capacitor from sending the IP noodle data to anybody with a grep recovering unit within 14 feet""
