User reviews

it's not same with knock on ports on android

Knock on ports on android can setup sequence steps to knock the port, but this app can not do it

Does what it says and the price is nice

I got tired of opening my laptop to knock any time I got to a new place. Now I can knock from my phone and connect without the extra steps. 99 cents and it’s a no brainer. No ads, no crapware, it just works

Great for DevOps

Thank you for this great tool. Using this tool I was able to secure my server ports even more! I really suggest every devops engineer to setup port knocking on their SSH port.

Does port knocking well

Simple and does exactly what I need to unlock my network services

Total garbage

Looks and runs like it was written in an afternoon. Not user friendly at all. No guidance. No progress explanation.

Oh and we use port knocking for all our servers so I'm not new to this.

Learn from my lesson and save your money.
