Are you Connected? This app finally gives you the answer, fast. A clean interface shows how responsive your network is and what you can try when something is wrong, with advanced diagnostic tools for the technically inclined. Everything runs on your device: no account, no ads, no tracking.
The tools:
• Ping - Measure packet loss and response time in real time
• HTTPS Ping - Measure how long a connection to port 443 takes, also where regular ping is blocked
• DNS - Test and compare your DNS against well-known providers to see if you should switch
• Lookup - Go from a name to IP addresses and back, with your own DNS or Cloudflare
• Advanced LAN scanner - Find out which devices are on your network, and which ports they have open
• Port scanner - Check the open ports on a host to confirm everything is the way you want it
• Path MTU - Find the largest packet size your network lets through without fragmenting it
• Subnet calculator - Calculates the network address, broadcast and number of hosts. (Yes, because I can never remember it myself.)
• Traceroute - See the route your packets take to the target
• Status for Wi-Fi, cellular, VPN and Personal Hotspot - including the data sent and received while your hotspot is active
The app also lets you know when a VPN or tunnel is active, or when a hotel or café sign-in page might affect your results.
Apple Watch, iPhone Duo and Live Activities:
• Apple Watch - Connected or not, the response time and a short history, also as a complication
• iPhone Duo - Folded, unfolded, or next to another app in Split View. Unfolded, you can run two tests side by side.
• Live Activities - Follow ping, traceroute, the LAN and port scans and HTTPS Ping on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. A test pauses after a short while in the background; tap Resume when you're back.
I built Connected? because I was tired of connecting to hotel Wi-Fi, or seeing a full 5G icon in the corner, and still not getting a single website to load. Is the site down, is it the app, or am I simply offline? Now you don't have to wonder: Connected? gives you the answer almost instantly.
Privacy is the foundation:
• No account, no ads, no analytics SDK, no third-party crash reporter.
• Nothing goes to the developer. The status check contacts a few fixed addresses (Cloudflare and Apple); the tests contact only the targets and DNS servers you choose.
• Location access is used only to read the Wi-Fi name (SSID), never to track where you are.
• A one-time purchase. No subscription. No in-app purchases.
