Stay tuned for more features and upgrades which will come for all supported platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux)

WiFiman is mobile and desktop app which can scan local network for active devices and configure them.

Comparing to WiFiman mobile app, this desktop version is on a start line. WiFiman mobile app is using more sophisticated discovery process and can display generic devices in your network. In desktop version, we're using (for now) only Ubiquiti discovery protocol. That's why mobile app will show you more devices than desktop version. Desktop version will show you only devices, which replied on discovery beacons. And this is configurable in each device, so even if in default config your device should respond, some devices can have the discovery service disabled and cannot be discovered. UniFi family is not yet supported too.

Comparing to Chrome addon, WiFiman desktop should be possible to discover devices on same physical network, but you don't need to have configured IP address in same subnet (IPv6 link local discovery). So please, when you have "no results" in your WiFiman. can you try the Chrome addon and check it will discover some device? If yes, there is something bad with WiFiman desktop and we will fix it, of course.

Please note, this app primary goal is to help you with configuring your local network (connecting new device, configure devices locally). For remote network management and monitoring UNMS is much more better choice.

Bugfixes

• upload / download device config (macOS related)
• search fix
• text selection will not open device UI

Known issues

• UniFi family not supported
