Runs fine on my Nexus 7. It does indeed restart a scan each time the screen orientation changes. Surely this can be fixed in the next release?

Wow. Simple interface, live reporting of found ports, a progress bar, and works in the background. The only problem is the scan restarts when orientation changes.

Couldn't resolve any IP addresses that I can reach through a browser or any other app. Doesn't allow you to type in a domain name.

This is the best port scanner I think heck even the one in Windows won't do what this will thank you DEV

I ran several full scans of one system and every time the app got to certain ports it would stop scanning with a "Connection timed out" message. There was no indication which port caused the failure so rescanning gets to be tedious. I'll wait till the next update before I totally give up on this app. Galaxy s3 unrooted.

Only completed 10% of all 65535 ports in 5 minutes, and my Nexus 4 has four cores plus I was connected to the network both wirelessly and via my desktop through USB.

This application also comes with a Port Encyclopedia, enabling the user to quickly look up what a certain port's function is. A local database is stored on the phone for defining ports, however there is also an option to look it up online for the most recent information.
