Question

Mac Desktop says "Routers"; iOS says "Wireless Routers"

On the Mac Desktop version, Wireless routers just shows as “Routers” whereas on the iPhone, it shows as Wireless Routers. They should consistent, and I’m sure on the desktop it used to say Wireless Routers too.

Good eye noticing this! It's the same category. Your Wireless Router items are all there, the Mac app just uses the shorter "Routers" label in the sidebar to save space. You'll still see "Wireless Routers" as the heading when you open it.

I don’t know that saving space is as important as consistency, I couldn’t find this category for a few seconds earlier. It’ll always be shorter than Social Security Numbers! Can I petition for it to be returned to Wireless Routers please?!

Probably, the whole category could be Wireless Networks or WiFi Networks to make it more consumer friendly and less technical.
