Hello Domo,
It's always a pleasure to hear from someone who uses the app regularly, so thank you for your message. Google tells me how many copies were downloaded, but nothing about who's using them, or for what purpose... which is a good thing for your privacy, but leaves me with little information about which features are useful, where it can be improved, etc.
Now for your questions:
1. Sort the AirWave site list... I have this feature coded so it will go out in the next release. If you need it in a hurry, email me and I will send off a pre-release version.
2. Extend the timescale of the Monitor Tab. I used to have it on a horizontal scroll so the bar-graph section (and the scanned APs under it) extended left-wards for ~10 minutes and could pan to touch. But the scrolling got in the way of the Tab-swiping with the old navigation. Now I could bring it back, but it is difficult to snapshot a ribbon like that, or send it off as an email attachment.
It sounds like you are doing a site-survey function? You walk on a pre-defined path and want to see signal strengths? There are a couple of features to help with that.
- On the AirWave Tab, try "site survey mode". This allows you to touch the screen when/where you want to make a measurement. Measurements are captured in a .csv file that is attached to the "email" function. Then you have a spreadsheet of BSSID/RSSI values at given xy points. But I think I only report the strongest APs (that can be changed if you would find it useful).
- There's a function triggered on the "survey" button on the Monitor Tab. Long-click to define and select points (1, 2, 3...) and then touch the button to take readings. this creates another csv file that's emailed as an attachment.
- And there is the text file for the Log which is emailed. This has entries for scans and measurements but it's in text so parsing is cumbersome.
If a picture would do it, I will think about extending the Monitor Tab bar-graph and emailing as a jpg or similar, would that be useful? Or would you prefer data for a spreadsheet, like a csv file?
3. Snapshot of the Monitor Tab. If you use the "email" button you should find the app attaches a snapshot of the display among other attachments. This is already in released versions since early this year. That's my first effort at it, if you can see a way to improve it please let me know.
Thank you for your comments, please let me know if you have more ideas. And I'd be grateful if you could mark up the notes above, especially if any of them look worthwhile.
Peter
