### 1/5 — Doesn't seem to work

*2024-07-14*

I purchased to get the 5 second monitoring but if I put my phone in airplane mode it still shows as up after many minutes.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback.

Yes your right! This is the default behaviour of the app. 

It does not run any checks on Airplane mode (or when you go into a elevator), toavoid falsely reporting downtimes ( and to limit notification spam ).

As an improvement - I will add a banner to the app homescreen (and widgets)  that indicates pinging is paused due to no network activity. 

Thank you for reporting this. In the future - feel free to send any feedback/ideas to me@sufiyanyasa.com

### 3/5 — Great app with a few problems.

*2022-06-05*

I think this is a wonderful idea and can turn into a great tool. Although, there are a couple things that don’t work well. 

1. Notifications don’t work for port specific addresses. 
2. The widget takes 10 minutes and longer to update when a site is down even though it is set to update every minute. 

I still think this is a great app! Just with some minor issues.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. I am interested to know which ports don't work.

### 3/5 — Lifetime purchase not possible

*2021-11-19*

If a one-time purchase was possible, I would give 5 stars. However, only the subscription model is possible. 

When I click on "lifetime-purchase" in the app, the AppStore automatically asks for the subscription. Despite the display of the one-time purchase, technically only the subscription is possible.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. I will have a look at the purchase settings.

### 4/5 — Look into it!

*2023-03-03*

The app is minimalistic but good! I just want to say that he should more update the app to get popular. The Favicon isnt working on many sites who have favicon icon. The Widgets, personally i would more customizable. The „online sentence“ would i split in three seperat informations and a option to change the request type would be nice (GET/POST/PATCH/..) 
Please work on the app, because its fire🔥🔥🔥

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review and feedback

### 4/5 — Nice app!

*2023-01-06*

So far I’m happy with the app functionality and overall UI/UX. Definitely recommended. 

I would like to see a few more customization options such as the ability to disable the icon/favicon on the server list. Ability to group and color tag. Would make things a bit neater and more organized. 

Otherwise a solid app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review and improvement suggestions

### 5/5 — 5/5, Read on please…

*2025-01-31*

I purchased this app to check port 53 (DNS) specifically.
App at the time only supported TCP, not UDP.
I reached out to the developer, and only a week later he has added UDP support!
I can’t rate him or the app high enough!
Looking forward to future updates.
Customer for life.
Will keep an eye on future apps released. Thanks Sufiyan!

### 5/5 — Responsive developer

*2024-06-04*

Developer is great, was responsive and helped to resolve issues for me

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2022-04-10, version 1.7.1*

Just what I needed to monitor a few local boxes on my LAN! Even supports HTTP status codes (e.g. 200, 301, 404, etc.) and sends push notifications on site unreachable. App looks pretty good as well, with easy-to-understand red/green icons. Kudos to the app author!

### 5/5 — Great

*2021-12-17*

Finally I’ve found what I’ve been looking for. This is an amazing app!

**Developer response:** Thank you, I appreciate the feedback.

### 5/5 — Good but could be better

*2021-12-08*

It would be nice if you could set a custom response string/regex and a custom response code per website.

Edit/Answer:
The HTML body. So that you can even check with the status code 2xx whether the given response is correct.

**Developer response:** Hi r4mp,

Awesome Idea, will add it to my backlog.
The custom response code is easy to work on. 
What would the custom string/regex comb through? ( http status message or html body ) 🤔
