Airport Utility App Reviews

Not only does expose the wifi password, but also the password to access the hard drive on a Time Capsule. This is pretty unbelievable. I’d also like IP blocking, especially to block Apple upgrade servers. Too many iOS nag dialogs to update.

Thanks Apple

Thank you!

Thank you Apple for keeping your products updated.

The cows have come home, Apple updated the trusty ol’ app 👍👍 Airports are the best 😀

Please keep the updates coming...

They were great till Apple stopped supporting them. I’m moved on to TP-Link products.

Keeps asking for a nonexistent password to get in to the router the actual WiFi password was working for it but now it won’t work and it’s not like I can do it with my laptop because I don’t own an apple made computer. Please for the love of god fix this app apple

Last I heard Apple is longer producing/manufacturing the routers. That being said, they still have a responsibility in updating and upgrading the last models of these routers. Last update was 3 yrs ago! They have been in the internet/WiFi business for over 10 yrs! Now these newer routers you can limit internet time on your kids, block certain websites and etc. I have a 4.5 yr old son which I need to limit his time. I like my routers, never had a problem with them, the app works well on my iPhone X. Please Apple do something about it!

According to the description the app is supposed to show your connected devices. It does no such thing. You have to tap on the base station and then another tap and then you are given a list (text not graphical )

Will not the app be update?

Next time make sure the invoice that’s was printed match the serial numbers of your device.

awful. it keeps disconnecting

This app is useful and look nice. On iOS 11, it is very unstable! The app crashes at random points and I can’t save any changes! Apple needs to update it to work with iOS 11!

Constant crashing and doesn’t even support the bigger screen. Very disappointing

For whatever reason, ever since I went to an iPhone 7+ with iOS 11.4, the app has become so unstable that I can’t even edit something as simple as a timed access MAC before it crashes and puts me back on a home screen. And I’m not the only one. I’ve even used visitors’ iPhones (all the way from a 4S to an X) to try to edit the entries, and it’s unstable on theirs as well. Lend a hand, Apple!

Need update for iPhone X

The last time this app was updated was 3 years ago. The app still works somewhat well most of the time but it’s time for a refresh seeing as the Apple store still recommends it with iOS 11 and the last compatibility updated was for iOS 8.

I am unimpressed with the fact that a company like Apple seems to have abandoned one of its own apps. The fact that it hasn’t been updated in 3 years and the update brought support for iOS 8 is unacceptable. There have be 3 (going on 4) new iOS versions since then. As well, this Apple app is not optimized for my Apple iPhone X. It’s not like Apple to just abandon one of its projects like this. I understand the airport line is being discontinued but people are still using them!

Needs to be updated. If not only to support iPhone X, their own product.

Can’t find Airport Express on the network even though the AE is connected to the network (solid green light and visible to FiOS base station). Hard reset takes 4-6 tries before it completes a new connection without error. WiFi signal strength and channel interference is not the issue. Once I get it connected it will hold sometimes for a month or more, other times only for 5 minutes or so before it can no longer be found by the Utility. Very frustrating.

Dumb that I cannot access My Time Capsule flies via the iOS Files app! Where is the iCloud integration?! I mean I can use back to my Mac, so something similar should be available on iOS! Needs iPhone X update + 3D Touch support! What about Apple Watch? Is WPA3 Support coming?!

This app can be quite useful, but the layout is super outdated and not very user-friendly. This, an APPLE app, doesn’t even have iPhone X support yet. I would really like to see a “diagnostics” tab that can diagnose and fix your problem for you, instead of telling you a problem you know nothing about and expecting you to know how to fix it.

Onan iPhone X you can’t log in to change anything. Come on Apple - where’s the support?!?!

Have been using for a while, the interface really doesn’t look good with black bars on the top and bottom, please fix this, Apple, its one of your apps

This app requires optimization for iPhone X.

Unbelievable there’s no iPhone X support

Very helpful app but shouldn't it get an update for the iPhone X layout?

It’s very helpful app but need support for iPhone x

Optimize for iPhone X!!!!!!

Apple may not be offering their AirPort line of products anymore and the app still functions as intended, but how hard is it for a company as resourceful as Apple to update the UI of an app?!

Great utility but ever since iOS update 11.3 it seems to crash randomly.

Magic to your finger tips!

Long time no update.

This doesn’t even work on my iPhone X. When I type in the password nothing happens, it just stays on that screen. It works sometime on the 8+. Think it’s due for an update badly.

Why is this app not designed to fit the form factor of the iPhone X? Isn’t this an AppStore requirement since April 2018? It’s April 2018 now, yo!

单纯拿来当Wi-Fi信号分析仪用，很好用。

Works but needs an update for iPhone X

Where are the updates apple????

I paid for the same ecosystem to have every device and app working perfectly together. Please update the design for iPhone X

I’m not sure if the app is the problem or the airport device is the problem. It’s unstable. Sometimes it’s showing I’m connected and sometimes it’s showing I’m not connected. Even though my modem is fine, the connection from my phone to the airport base is unstable. It changes from minute to minute.

App is okay but seriously no app switching? I lose whatever I was doing if I even so much as lock the phone screen?

This app is useful but it will crash when I use it which gets annoying.

This app was once great. Even though Apple has discontinued Airport products they should continue to update this app to work with iOS 11 and the iPhone X.

I use this app on occasion and it works for the most part when I need it to. I would like to see it updated and a little deeper control over my airport. I get the feeling Apple wants out of the networking business or is dragging their feet.

1- app does not fit the iPhone X screen size like it should. Come Apple this is your phone and your app. You are warning people to apply your UX guideline that you don’t even respect yourself 2- it ask the password of my time capsule every time that quit the app and come back. That is a problem because I need to copy paste a MAC address on my notes to force a static IP 3- Face ID is not leveraged 4- after successful entering a MAC address the app crashed Lot of work to do here. :-/

Update your app already Apple.

Apple isn’t what it used to be. Devices I had for years going down constantly. This with the awful iPad software and the apple Rv that randomly goes out. Apple, what did you do??? And WHY.?????

The app works but is long overdue for an update and iPhone X full screen view.

Generally, I love having access to my networking hardware settings via mobile devices. However... What’s one of the most commonly executed troubleshooting actions? Restarting or rebooting your device? Apparently not via this app. Why is one of the most commonly needed actions not available?

This app needs an update. It is to old and the screen to small. Please update this app. Thank you.

I am stunned that Apple distributes an app with the latest update being for IOS 8...! How can you expect developers to update their apps for iPhoneX when you won’t do it for your own apps?

Here we have an Apple produced app for their products and still no update to accommodate an iPhoneX? I’m shocked this has still not been handled and it’s mid February. Disappointing.

PLEASE HELP ME I GOT A VIRUS IM NOT KIDDING PLEASE DO SOMETHING

Sad that Apple isn't making any more Time Capsules in the future though.

App was updated and not it does not work at all. I’m very disappointed. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the Airport App and it still does not work. So I have no control of my Airport device from my phone and I’m forced to log onto my computer each time I want to access my airport. Please fix this Apple.

Looks like junk! Functions ok but needs a refresh and more function!

But I wish we could block unwelcome devices

Finally updated for iPhone X support full screen!!! Works good on the iPad too... So far no problems.

My AirPort Extreme is a Smart Wi-Fi Router which is better than other Wi-Fi Routers (e.g. NETGEAR, D-Link, Linksys, TP-Link, etc.).. Probably the Wi-Fi Range of my AirPort Extreme is about AC2600 (speed) per coverage for large home (property size)...

Not happy can’t keep a signal.

It never requests a password now when I log into the app. Not very secure. Why is this?

Still the best WiFi ecosystem available.

Another way to charge more storage. I don’t know what to use this out for.
