What's New in Pi

9.5.2

October 29, 2026

v9.5.2 fixes PHR+ being lost when the App Store couldn't be reached, problems deleting or editing entries in Domains & Adlists when Pi-hole redirects HTTP to HTTPS, and the app freezing when opening Live Log from a search. Live Log now also shows connection errors with a retry option. Enjoy! * Changelog * Fixed: - Fixed PHR+ being lost when the App Store couldn't be reached, for example over a VPN, which required restoring purchases again - Fixed deleting or editing regex domains, adlists and groups when Pi-hole redirects HTTP to HTTPS, which could leave the entry in place or add a broken, URL-encoded copy - Failed deletes and edits in Domains & Adlists now show an error instead of silently failing - Fixed the app freezing when opening Live Log while searching for a domain or client - Fixed Live Log showing an endless loading indicator when a connection fails; errors now include a retry option --- v9.5.1 adds support for the latest Pi-hole versions (FTL v6.8, Web v6.6.1 and Core v6.5), and improves error messages for backups, gravity updates and passwordless hostname restrictions. It also fixes an issue where enabling blocking from Control Center could unexpectedly disable it again later. Enjoy! * Changelog * Improved: - Support for Pi-hole FTL v6.8, Web v6.6.1, and Core v6.5 - Static DHCP hostnames can now contain internal underscores Fixed: - Fixed enabling blocking from Control Center unexpectedly disabling it again later - Configuration backup permission errors and gravity update failures now show helpful messages, and duplicate gravity updates are prevented - Cancelled backups no longer open the export sheet or show error alerts, and gravity session refresh is more reliable - Clearer errors and setup guidance for Pi-hole FTL v6.8's passwordless hostname restrictions when using custom domains or reverse proxies --- v9.5 adds support for iPhone Duo, a new side-by-side Query Log layout for a better experience on iPad, iPhone Duo, and Mac, and static DHCP lease management for PHR+ users. It also improves translations and storage security, and fixes issues related to iCloud Keychain, blocking controls, instance management, Apple TV and Apple Watch. Enjoy!

Need search capabilities

Overall the app works but each screen needs the capability to search. With a large network having to scroll to find things is not very useful.

Power User

Everything you could ask for from PiHole. Executed well.

Super - besonders mit mehreren Instanzen

Die App bereitet PiHole hervorragend auf, ist intuitiv zu bedienen und leichtgewichtig.
Ihre volle StΓ€rke spielt sie bei mehreren Instanzen aus, welche einfach sychronisiert werden kΓΆnnen und deren Statistiken auf Wunsch kombiniert aufbereitet und dargestellt werden kΓΆnnen. Ein erstklassiger Alltagshelfer.
Mich ΓΌberzeugt auch, dass die App selbst keine Datenkrake ist und - in guter Fortsetzung der PiHole-Idee - nicht β€žnach Hause telefoniertβ€œ. Sie ist ihren Preis mehr als wert!

Thank you, glad you like the app! πŸ™‚ - Joost

Perfection

Nice layout, clean, responsive, full of features to manage pi-hole instances. Actively updated. Doesn’t phone home. Love it.

One little bug introduced in 9.4.1: when adding block lists/domains to several instances at once the green check marks are missing so there’s no visual confirmation where, or if, those entries are properly submitted to their intended destinations.

leider..

teilt die App ein Schicksal, was anscheinend im IT Bereich viele Apps erleiden. die Verschlimmbesserung. gefΓΌhlt Γ€ndert sich fΓΌr den Endbenutzer ziemlich wenig durch das Update, ausser dass er offenbar eine Art unfreiwillige BeschΓ€ftigungstherapie bekommt. so in meinem Fall nun zum 2ten Mal geschehen. seit dem Update erkennt die App den pi hole nicht mehr. kann sein, dass sie mit den bei mir sporadisch wechselnden Netzwerkumgebungen nicht klarkommt. keine Ahnung. aber nicht lustig. Kommando zurΓΌck !! diesmal mein Fehler. geht wieder - alles super ! Bussi !

Response from developer

Hi! This seems to be a macOS bug. Please open the app β€˜Activity Monitor’, search β€˜Pi-hole Remote’ and close all processes. After that, you can update the app. I don’t have any influence so to say on the update process of macOS :-( I’d appreciate if you could update your review if you feel like it! Joost
