Easy to use on macos sillicon
I don't like to install Java, because it's a programming language that's not open-source. It's like speaking a language and for telling each sentence you should use the voice of the language creator. So I wouldn't install it.
Multi-platform due to Java. Lets users know active devices connected without accessing the modem/router configuration.
My boss found a commercial IP scanner, and suggested that we go and buy our own so we can use it when diagnosing connection problems in our factory. By principle I avoid commercial software, and was very happy to find Angry IP Scanner, which has the same exact functionality, but is free and open source.
This is good to have in your network troubleshooting folder along with a bunch of others.
You can specify a list of custom ports to to check for and no link layer apps needs to be installed to use
Better yet go to the av's quarantine setting and mark it as trusted as it's a know false positive as they classify it as a pup "potently unwanted program" who do they think they are av company's choosing for me what i want and don't want it's a safe security testing app.
