WebServerMonitor
Read full descriptionHide full description
If a server becomes unreachable or returns an unexpected status code (any other than HTTP/2xx), WebSMoni immediately notifies you via push notification. The monitoring happens directly on your iPhone or iPad – no third-party services or external servers are involved. WebServerMonitor is designed to be efficient and easy to set up, just concentrating on the important things: informing you about the status of your web servers.
