What Fing costs

The three plans

Fing’s pricing page states that displayed prices may vary at checkout by region, local taxes or currency. Annual billing is presented on that page as saving up to 30%.

The three-scan cap

The free plan allows up to 3 manual scans per day. That is the number that decides whether the free tier is usable for what you want to do.

In practice, 3 scans is enough to check who is on the network occasionally — a scan now, a scan when a new device shows up, a scan to confirm something left. It is not enough to work through a problem across an afternoon, where the normal pattern is to change one thing, rescan, change the next thing, and rescan again. That loop runs out of scans quickly.

This is the limit people most often hit before subscribing.

Monitoring needs more than the app

Continuous monitoring is the headline Premium feature — the thing that turns Fing from something you open into something that watches the network while you are not looking. It is also the part of the plan with a requirement attached.

Fing’s pricing page states that a monitored network requires an active Fing Desktop or Fing Agent. Fing Desktop runs on a computer. Fing Agent installs on hardware you leave running.

So the subscription alone does not give you monitoring from your phone. It gives you monitoring from a machine that stays on, which you also have to set up and keep powered. The phone app becomes the way you read what that machine sees.

This is disclosed on Fing’s own pricing page, in the same place as the plan features — it is stated, not hidden. But it is easy to miss when you are comparing a monthly price against other scanners, because the other scanner in the comparison usually has no equivalent requirement, and a price-to-price reading does not surface the difference.

Monitored networks

Premium includes 2 monitored networks. Professional includes more, presented on Fing’s page as a scale starting at 3 — the exact count could not be read from the page, and it is listed as unresolved below rather than estimated here.

A monitored network, in Fing’s own terms, is a network kept under continuous control, giving ongoing visibility into devices, changes and security events without manual action. The count matters if you are responsible for more than one location — a home and an office, or several sites — because each one you want watched consumes one of them.

What we couldn’t determine

• How many monitored networks Professional includes. Fing’s page presents a range beginning at 3, and the figure did not resolve to a single number when the page was read
• Whether the in-app subscription price on iOS matches the price on Fing’s website, which App Store listings do not show
• What “up to 30%” saving on annual billing applies to, since the published monthly and annual figures imply different discounts on each plan
• Whether the 3-scan daily cap counts automatic scans or only manual ones, which the page does not specify

Where this came from and where else Fing appears

Every figure on this page comes from Fing’s pricing page, read on 2026-08-14. Prices change, and plan contents change with them — check that page before relying on any figure here. Fing’s App Store listing, read on 2026-08-21, is cited as the source of the App Store link on this page, not of any figure on it.

Fing appears in three comparisons on this site:

• Fing vs. Ubiquiti WiFiman — two free iPhone network scanners, compared on pricing, discovery protocols and platform support.
• Fing vs. Network Analyzer Pro — a subscription scanner against a single-purchase one, compared on pricing model, scan limits and data collection.
• NetScanPro vs. Fing — NetScanPro is published by Fogarty Holdings LLC, which operates this site. The comparison covers pricing model, scan limits and data collection.
