iOS WiFi Scanning
Apple does not allow iOS apps to WiFi scan. It does, however, allow users to WiFi scan using its own AirPort Utility app. For more information on how to set up this app for WiFi scanning, please check out our blog:
Free WiFi Scanner for iPhone and iPad Without Jailbreak
Once you have AirPort Utility set up for WiFi scanning, users can post the scan information to the Optifi Agent app (make sure the app is open, signed in, and running when posting to it).
- When the scan is finished, use the Export icon in the bottom left.
- If Optifi Agent is not an option in the middle section, swipe across and select More.
- Activate Optifi Agent
- Select Optifi Agent and then Post it!
- The WiFi Scan information will be sent to the Optifi Manager in the WiFi Scanner tab, not in Agent Status.
