## What it is
WiFiAnalyzer is an open-source Android application for analyzing Wi-Fi signals. It identifies nearby access points, graphs signal strength by channel and over time, and rates channels across 2.4/5/6 GHz bands.

## Use cases
- find the least congested Wi-Fi channel for my router
- see signal strength of nearby access points on Android
- diagnose why my Wi-Fi is slow in certain rooms
- check which devices are on 2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz vs 6 GHz
- estimate distance to a Wi-Fi access point
- export a list of nearby Wi-Fi networks

## When to choose
- you need an open-source, ad-free Wi-Fi analyzer on Android
- you want channel rating and signal graphs to optimize router placement or channel selection
- you need vendor/OUI lookup and filtering by band, security, or SSID

## When to avoid
- you want to crack Wi-Fi passwords or audit network security - the app explicitly does not do this
- you need an iOS or desktop Wi-Fi analyzer
- your device or Android version throttles or restricts Wi-Fi scanning

## Facets
- artifact type: application
