What each app can export

App Export Needs
iPhone and iPad CSV of a recording’s readings, with optional masking Pro
Mac PDF report Mac Pro
Mac CSV of access point names, from the Access Points tab Mac Pro

The Mac does not export a CSV of readings. If you need the raw table, export it from the phone that made the recording.

iPhone and iPad with Pro: CSV

  1. Open the recording

    Open the saved recording and go to Export Stats.

  2. Mask if the file is leaving your organisation

    Switch on Mask Personal Data. It obscures network names (SSIDs) and access point addresses (BSSIDs) and offsets the locations.

  3. Check and export

    Check the preview table, then tap Export as CSV.

The file has one row per reading: time, network, access point, channel, signal strength, noise and signal-to-noise ratio, transmit and receive rates, location and accuracy. The columns for channel busyness (CCA), retries and Wi-Fi delay (WMM) stay empty unless those readings were available, for example from a diagnostic capture. Band, channel width and MCS are marked as estimates.

Mac Pro: PDF report

  1. Open the recording

    Open the recording in nOversight for Mac.

  2. Fill in the details

    Switch to the report and enter the site, tester and any notes.

  3. Check and preview

    Check the requirements and the findings, then preview the pages.

  4. Export the PDF

    Export the report as a PDF.

The report states which requirements were met and which need attention, lists findings in priority order with their charts and map, and shows the internet connection separately from the Wi-Fi. What it can show depends on the data in the recording: a missing measurement appears as missing, not as a pass. See reports for an example.

What to send to whom

Recipient Include
A support desk Device and software version, the symptom, place, time window and the readings around it
A client or site owner The scope tested, the requirements, the result for each, the evidence and the limits of the test
A network specialist The recording itself, where your policy allows, plus the times of interest

Check network names, locations, photos, device details and notes before you send anything, and follow your organisation’s retention rules.

Where your data goes

Analysis runs on your device. nOversight has no cloud viewer and does not sync recordings between the phone and the Mac; move files yourself with AirDrop, Files or a share of your choice. Speed tests contact external test servers, which is separate from the analysis.
