Fing - Network Scanner 4+

Amazingly useful and polished network app

How dare this app be so amazing? I've had fing for years and have depended on it always for help with troubleshooting and setting up networks, mainly my home LAN. I also really appreciate that, for a free app, it has only gotten better over the years and added truly useful features. A particular recent favourite is the proper bandwidth speed test.

I also also appreciate that while the app exists to encourage people to upgrade to the security and convenience of an actual FingBox, it never annoys you with that fact or cripples its functionality. The app is so good, that I've decided I'll get a FingBox as soon as I can afford one. But even if you never intend to get one, this is an invaluable tool for anyone working with networks, and I hope it always sticks around. To be honest it's one of those rare apps that I would pay for rather than lose it. It's that good. Get finging now! It's so well designed that you'll probably learn more about networking and your setup. I know I did. Thanks fing. I love each and every one of you.

Since premium it’s downhill all the way

And my fingbox is still in the draw. Unwanted and no longer used. Update: I really hoped Fing would see the error of going premium and sort out all the annoyed users. But alas nothing has changed. Weirdly I put my Fing box on eBay and nobody bid on it. Update: Premium features not for the loyal long term customers who have been with you from the start. Guess no camera feature for us. Trying to sell my Fing box no buyers yet. Update: Thanks for reply but I bought this product BEFORE the over priced premium was introduced. So either you give it to existing users or buy my product back. There is a LOT of people complaining. This is completely unfair. And don’t think that £42 a year at half price is a great deal. Seriously just give me my money back for the Fing box if you can’t help. Original: As a Fing box owner, there hasn’t been much in the way of new features for a long time. Now they finally offer some new features of which some used to be standard features but now come at a premium. This is all rather confusing and annoying. I don’t mind paying for the Fing box and if there was a once off app fee I’d be happy with that or if there was a small yearly fee of say £6 then also cool but not £6 a month or more and Fing box was all suppose to be a free once purchased. I am fuming....and confused and still annoyed the Fing box itself hasn’t really improved over the years like it was suppose to.

Developer Response ,

Dear user, thank you for leaving a review. We are sorry to know you feel this way. Our premium subscription is meant for those users who wish to have new, additional, advanced features to monitor their network. Please keep in mind you can still use your Fingbox without the premium subscription as only some features will be limited now. Moreover, we are offering a 50% off Cyber Monday deal which you can still benefit from.

Great product

I have used Fing for many years and found the software version very useful wherever I travel. Having the Fing box connected to my router now provides a wealth of information about my home and also who is around it. This is particularly useful when I'm not at home as I can see who is around my property. In theory this is anonymous but I have added a few regulars from observation and given then pseudo names. It's good to see how well my ISP is performing too. Pleased to see that extra features are being added and so far they have been foc. Thanks for a great product.
