Wireless Signal
Wireless Signal is a network utility for macOS that displays Wi-Fi signal strength, connection quality, and nearby network information. It provides real-time monitoring of wireless signal levels, channel information, and network details in the menu bar or as a standalone window. The app is used by network administrators, IT professionals, and power users who need to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity issues or monitor signal strength across different locations.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about whether Wireless Signal has been updated to run natively on Apple Silicon. The app's developer has not published recent public announcements about native support. Given that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), we recommend contacting the developer directly at the earliest opportunity to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned. If the developer is still actively maintaining the app, they may be willing to prioritize a native update once you express interest. In the meantime, the Intel build continues to run under Rosetta 2 today, but that compatibility layer will be removed in September 2028, so this is not a problem you can defer indefinitely. If the developer does not respond or indicates no plans for an update, consider switching to a modern alternative like Wireless Diagnostics (built into macOS) or NetSpot, which offer native Apple Silicon support and current development.
