MTRay vs NetSward

Troubleshoot connectivity, inspect certificates, look up domain registration data, and measure network performance with MTRay on iOS and macOS. Use individual tools for a quick check, or combine probes into reusable JavaScript reports with MTRay Pro. **INCLUDED FREE** • Ping, TCP Port Scan, and text-based Traceroute, with automatic IPv4/IPv6 selection for Ping and Traceroute • SSL/TLS Inspection: certificates, protocol, cipher, handshake timings, and certificate trust evaluated by your device • HTTP Simple and DNS Simple for everyday requests and lookups • Connection Timeline: DNS → TCP → TLS → Request → Transfer • WHOIS queries and RDAP domain registration lookups; available details depend on the registry • iPerf3 client: TCP/UDP upload and download tests, configurable UDP target rate, and optional username/password/RSA public-key authentication • iPerf3 results include throughput and, when available, retransmissions, RTT, UDP jitter/loss, CPU usage, and server output • Connection Quality: latency, packet loss, and jitter over repeated probes • Offline IP geolocation with a map, Wake-on-LAN, and subnet calculations • Network interfaces, routing tables, and ARP/NDP neighbors • TCP, UDP, and WebSocket communication **MTRay Pro — ONE-TIME PURCHASE** The following features require Pro: • MTR (My Traceroute): continuous route probing with per-hop loss and latency statistics • Script: run built-in examples, edit custom JavaScript workflows, and save named scripts for reuse • SSL Certificate Monitor: check certificate expiry across multiple hosts • HTTP Advanced: HTTP/2 and HTTP/3, proxy settings, ECH, custom resolvers, verbose diagnostics, and curl command import/export • DNS Advanced: custom servers and record types, including DoH, DoT, and DoQ • Bonjour Browser for local network services • Traceroute Route Map with geographic hops • Export and share results; iCloud bookmark sync Buy once to unlock Pro on both iOS and macOS. No subscription. **SCRIPT EXAMPLES — Pro REQUIRED TO RUN** Start with Network Diagnostics, Multi-Host Health Check, DNS + Traceroute, Port Scanner, HTTP API Test, TLS Inspection, Domain Registration, or IP Geolocation. The Network Diagnostics example checks DNS, Ping, TLS, HTTP, and Traceroute independently. Built-in APIs cover DNS, Ping, Traceroute, HTTP, TCP port scanning, SSL/TLS inspection with certificate trust, WHOIS, domain RDAP, and offline IP geolocation. Set timeouts, catch JavaScript errors, format JSON, and generate Markdown or plain-text reports. Adapt the examples to your own diagnostic workflow. **WHO IT’S FOR** Network engineers, developers, IT professionals, and anyone who wants to examine connectivity and network services directly. **PRIVACY & NETWORKING** No account required. No ads. Diagnostic probes contact their target hosts and services; WHOIS/RDAP queries contact registration services. IP geolocation uses a bundled offline database. Local network tools require appropriate access. See the privacy policy and App Store privacy labels for data-handling details.

Start with this device. NetSward turns the network evidence already available to your iPhone or iPad into clear next steps. See current Wi-Fi identity when iOS permits it, connection path and gateway evidence, bounded DNS checks, public interfaces, Bonjour discovery, user-entered DNS, TCP, and TLS checks, retained history, surveys, checkpoint maps, and reports with redaction options. Availability is labeled when iOS does not expose a capability; the app does not pretend that an unknown value is zero. Pair an optional Mac only when you choose. Mac evidence stays in its own source section with capture and receive times. Local Network, Location, and camera access are requested only for the related feature; pairing is disabled until you approve it. Choose Guided for symptom-based help or Workbench for direct expert access. Search and pin tools, replay recorded incidents, compare matching measurements, review survey checkpoints, and inspect bounded HTTPS resource timings. Optional local application-speed tests require Pro on both devices, a trusted Mac, and its temporary operator allowance. NetSward Pro is an optional one-time purchase. Pro adds richer local history, named surveys, HTTPS metrics, multi-source exports, and advanced Shortcuts. Pro is sold through the App Store and can be restored on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac with the same Apple Account. Each device verifies its own entitlement; an iPhone or iPad purchase never authorizes a Mac command.
