Is there something like NeoStumbler for iOS?

[–] boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago

I mean there is no way to use the database on iOS

But no, afaik there is also no Stumbler. Apps need quite some extended privileges to work well, might be restricted

record network data
record location in background
read all available networks

Well... apple itself does this (and btw apples location data is actively scraped. Really poorly protected) but no other app can do it likely
