Decent range of tools. Ads not invasive. Unfortunately local network scan didn't detect any hosts other than the one running the app.

I'm a fan of this app for nearly a decade. No other apps implement the same features in a way that provides such useful functionality as this one. It is best in its class, and therefore has likely been installed on every Android device I've owned since discovering it.
