Wi-Spy Air

Air Viewer software requirements will be Android v7 or above and iOS v12 or above.

The device software must also be able to support On-The-Go (OTG) cables and data transfer. Please ensure your device is compatible with OTG. This mainly impacts Android devices as different manufacturers handle OTG compatibility differently.

Air Viewer is being built specifically for iOS and Android enabled phones. A tablet specific application will not be available with the initial iterations. However, Air Viewer will be available for iOS and Android tablets and will utilise scaling.

The Wi-Spy family of products has traditionally solely been a spectrum analyser. The Wi-Spy DBx is a dual-band spectrum analyser that captures raw spectrum in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

The Wi-Spy Air is also a dual-band spectrum Analyser. On top of that, it also has a dedicated WiFi chip that captures WiFi packets. Air Viewer, an application for Android and iOS, uses the spectrum and WiFi data from the Wi-Spy Air and presents this data within the application. This is so Air Viewer can be free of the constraints of what WiFi data Android and iOS provides. Because we have control over what packets we capture and interpret, we are also able to provide more rich WiFi data than we would otherwise be able to provide.
