    Can you please upload the video to any google drive or any other platform and DM it to me so I can investigate? As I have checked on different android phones, the Fing app seems to be working fine. If you want you can re-install the Fing app by clearing the cache and then check if the issue persists?

    I recreated the issue, when you are not using Fing app for a while then if you open Fing app then it shakes for few times asking you to run the scan for devices. It is the expected behavior of the Fing app. I wanted to confirm if it was shaking continuously without stopping at all.

    ok, the app doesn't request (pls scan). So its gr8 that you were able to re-produce it and that it is normal and expected....  Thank you!

    UPDATE: Robin, How long is "when you are not using Fing app for a while "? I use the Mobile Fing app numerous times a day, but the SCAN FOR DEVICES button always "shakes".?

    As far I have checked it happens after scanning your network every 15-30 mins.

    Robin, it happens every minute. Any time I return to the SCAN FOR DEVICES button. even if I return to the Home screen after 1 minute.  The Button always "shakes" for 30 secs
