"...Such an App would be pretty pointless."
Why would it be "...pointless" ?
I'm G-less at my residence. I have two networks in my home and I'd like to survey Wi-Fi signal strength for each network for me and my visitors. I want to set the one network that fills the areas best on as the primary source on all my devices so I can roam without fiddling at each location.
Years ago, I carried an old wifi keychain wifi meter into motel lobbies ( I'm a boonies road warrior) and measured the signal strength in the lobby (my back-up location for sending files) and it was pretty flawless as an early indicator. In those days (2006) location signal varied from room-to-room. I'd walk the halls with the meter and relocate to an available room in the stronger area. Same need. A measuring App would help in my location.
.
Best I have come across is shown on the below URL and there is a basic (but informative) scanner built into the Airport app for IOS.
