Copy-ready text

Three lengths, all of them checkable against the app. Please do not use the figures without the sentence beside them: they come from a network with an unusually talkative resolver.

One line

LanSheet is a network scanner for Mac, iPhone and iPad that tells you where every name came from.

One paragraph

LanSheet shows every reachable device on the network with its name, model and maker, and puts the source next to each of them. Your own names, rooms and notes survive a change of address, so the next run tells you at a glance what is new, what came back and what is missing. Ping, traceroute, port scan, Wake on LAN and a bandwidth test are included. 9.99 dollars once for all three platforms, with no account, no advertising and no subscription.

Three paragraphs

LanSheet shows you what is on a network. Run a scan, and every reachable device appears with its name, model and maker instead of a bare address. Next to each detail is where it came from: Bonjour, reverse DNS, NetBIOS, UPnP, SMB, a web page title, a TLS certificate, or the IEEE MAC register. Anything merely inferred looks like it, and anything that was never checked is not reported as a result.

The second half is the sheet. Your own names, symbols, rooms and notes stay with a device even when the IP address changes, because LanSheet recognises it by what it says about itself. The next run marks each line as new, back or missing, and the app can notify you when something unknown turns up.

Then the tools: ping with history, traceroute, a port scan across common services or a list of your own, Wake on LAN, a bandwidth test between two devices running LanSheet, your own Mac’s routing table, Shortcuts actions and a widget. LanSheet is 9.99 dollars once for Mac, iPhone and iPad together, with no account, no advertising and no subscription.

What has been measured

One run on the developer’s own test network: 69 devices, behind a UniFi router that names almost everything.

What the app cannot do

A device that answers nothing, announces nothing and carries no name stays invisible. The only complete route would be an ARP scan over a raw socket, and neither iOS nor the Mac App Store sandbox allows one. The app says so on the spot rather than claiming a completeness it cannot deliver. On the iPhone a few features additionally depend on an entitlement from Apple, and that is marked in the app too.

Images

Unframed and without marketing copy, so you can put your own layout around them. Full resolution in the pack.
