I am after an app similar to Ning that is still being updated and supports ipv6 if possible.

Edit: Ning is a network scanner to find IPs of other machines on your local network.

I think it would help if you told people what Ning did.

I currently use Android IP scanner which is pretty barebones but works https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.victorb.androidnetworkscanner

Before that I used Vernet but it stopped working for me a while ago for unknown reasons https://www.f-droid.org/packages/org.fsociety.vernet/

I checked Android IP Scanner and it hasnt been updated since early 2021 either. Vernet has been updated quite recently and works, but doesnt do what i need it to since i want to get ipv6 addresses too.

Fair enough, I haven't checked when it was updated last as I needed something quick so I just went through the listings.

Too bad vernet didn't work for you.

My suspicion is that nobody has made an app yet that will use IPv6 primarily.
