That logo is just ducky. I didn't know this was a children's game.

Hopefully, you have plans to update the paid version, as well?

Just a FYI about this app: The list it provides includes arp cache entries. This is a bad idea, because it will show no longer available devices. If you use this app, clear the arp cache before (sudo arp -a -d) "scanning". It gets even worse, if you did a broadcast ping before.. Also lacks the possibility to chose the interface to scan. If you have several interfaces up (incl. VPN and such), it's kinda random which interface the apps scans. So, well, a nice entry-level tool to make a fast scan, but beware of ghostly arp-entries.

Only per AppStore? No thanks.

Making this available ONLY through the app store is another example of short sighted authorship. Single source supply through only Apple? What a slippery slope you tread! We need distributed sourcing and we need robust fully functional applications not crippled by the requirements imposed by Apple. If you won't provide me these things I'll do without. I hope more people will see the dangers of Apple's app store and opt instead to use Macupdate as their preferred source or download directly from the developer. I'd love to try LanScan, but I won't go to Apple's app store.

Great application. Identifies each and every device on the net (just hit a couple of times on the Scan button). The only feature I miss is the ability to assign names to the different MAC numbers (devices).

Great app, does what it says and the price is perfect. For the price it's tough to beat, a few more features like hostname would be great.

Excellent App! Just straight in use, it has found all the devices on my network, even barcode scanners and virtual machines. Thanks to do that for free !
