Not sure what your exact requirements are but there are several Free
Android apps that my help.
My personal favorite is WiFi analyzer and it has helped me out many times
whilst setting up or optimising a WiFi network.

Most Wi-Fi analyzers only show Wi-Fi. You don't see all the
wireless keyboards and mice, or baby minders, etc. If you
want to see everything out there you should consider a
spectrum analyzer. I have used the stand alone RF Explorer
and the AirView9 usb dongle. Both do a good job. The RF
Explorer is small and easy to use on location. The AirView9
requires a computer but offers more options for capturing,
saving, and analyzing the data.

Several years ago I had a problem until the RF Explorer
disclosed that a Logitech keyboard and a remote temperature
sensor were essentially jamming the channel I was trying to
use. My telephone (Android) Wi-Fi analyzer showed the
channel as being clear.

I second the RF explorer, I've got the 3G model. The whole thing looks and
feels kind-of cheap, but it is usable.... very portable.

There are several different models, make sure to get one that covers your
band of interest (either 2.4GHz or 5GHz, or both?).
