Does Fing Desktop use the Fingbox?

This seems like an obvious question, but I don't see any answers. Does the desktop program use the Fingbox to do its work or is it entirely separate?

So then the only way to take advantage of the box is to use a smartphone?

That seems ... like you’re missing an opportunity. I bought the hardware (back in the Kickstarter) because I wanted a little robot on my network doing the monitoring and such, and that’s what it does.

Give us desktop (web browser!) access to the box, please. I really don’t need a program on my computer if the box does what I need. Especially if that computer is a laptop and it probes my employer’s network.

please point me to detailed uninstallation instructions for the Mac Fing program — including how to remove the background daemons you install. Thanks.

Hi @apeters
To uninstall Fing Desktop from MAC, you just need to put the Fing Dekstop from Applications Folder to Trash and all components will be uninstalled.

Desktop access to the Fingbox would definitely be much appreciated.  I’ve tried installing the app on an iPad, but since it’s a phone app, it doesn’t scale properly. The ability to read larger fonts on a much larger screen would be a plus!
