You can view or remove both monitored and manually scanned unmonitored networks using Fing Web App, including networks scanned on the Fing Mobile App, Fing Desktop, or Fing Web App. You cannot remove or view a previously scanned network directly from Fing Desktop.

To view monitored networks on Fing App, select the drop-down menu beside the network name to display monitored and previously scanned networks. Currently monitored networks are denoted as Connected in green. Previously scanned networks are denoted in blue with the latest date the network was active.

To remove a monitored network on Fing App, you have to deactivate it first.
