What's New in mDNSShark
1.11
November 12, 2026
What's New - Bluetooth detection: scan nearby Bluetooth devices from the Devices tab, with a floating scan button and a Bluetooth filter. - Unnamed Bluetooth devices now get a name and type from their advertisements and a bundled device list. A device that advertises two ways shows up once. - Apple Find My beacons and trackers are labeled clearly, and the app never connects to them. - Swipe right on a Bluetooth row to add it, swipe left to remove it. Rows are more compact. - New Devices Online, Scan Now and Security at a Glance widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen. - Better router detection: the app asks the system for your default gateway instead of guessing. - Devices on a different network than your phone are flagged with an Other network badge. - Many more Bonjour types, including cameras, Matter and Thread, with better names and types for speakers, smart home gear and NAS devices. - New teal app icon with dark and tinted variants.
