Confirm the network before scanning, with clear permission language when iOS needs location to read the Wi-Fi name.

Scan loop
Turn vague Wi-Fi frustration into a room-by-room map.
SignalNest guides a quick walk-through, places quality markers in AR, and summarizes the spots that feel strong, usable, or worth fixing.
Sample while moving
Capture repeated speed, latency, stability, and quality-score checks instead of relying on one lucky measurement.
Save the result locally
Keep scan summaries, weak spots, and comparison history on the device by default.
Compare before and after
Retest after moving hardware and compare average quality, latency, weak spots, and the worst area.
Placement advice
Advice that points to a physical action.
The MVP rules stay explainable: move the router out of a corner, lift it higher, test near the router, or place a mesh node between the router and the weak room instead of inside the weakest spot.
- No promise of professional RF survey accuracy.
- No claim that iOS exposes every Wi-Fi radio metric.
- No forced paywall before a useful first result.
Free first value
Useful before Pro appears.
The free path should let a first-time user complete a scan, read a basic result, save a recent scan, and perform a simple before-and-after check.
Trust posture
Clear limits beat overconfident colors.
SignalNest describes connection experience and confidence instead of pretending the camera can see Wi-Fi waves or that iOS exposes every router diagnostic signal.
Small-space fit
Homes, rentals, shops, and small offices.
The product is shaped for people deciding whether to move hardware, add a mesh node, or leave the network alone because the weak spot has another cause.
