Whip Herd vs NanoIP

Your agents stay on your computer. You stay in control. Whip is a Herdr and SSH client for iPhone and iPad. Connect to your home computer or server over SSH, follow your coding agents, and give them the next instruction wherever you are. SUPERVISE YOUR AGENTS See the agents across your connected hosts and Herdr spaces in one attention queue. Follow Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode conversations, check their progress, and return to the sessions that need you. CHAT FROM YOUR PHONE Read agent responses in native Chat View. Write your next instruction with the message composer, dictate text, or attach images. Expand tool results and code changes without working through a tiny terminal transcript. KEEP YOUR TERMINAL CLOSE Open interactive SSH terminals with mobile keyboard controls and independent shell tabs. Plain SSH hosts work without Herdr, too. REVIEW REMOTE WORK Browse files over SFTP, inspect Git changes and diffs, and open remote files. Use the built-in browser for websites and development previews reached through your SSH connection. CONNECT TO YOUR OWN MACHINES Manage saved SSH hosts and keys, pair supported hosts by QR code, and use the connections you already trust. Whip connects to your machines; the coding agents run there, not on your phone. No extra Whip server is required on a Herdr host. Core SSH, SFTP, terminal, and Herdr workflows are free. The optional Rancher in-app purchase adds appearance options such as glass, custom backgrounds, and full-screen layouts. Your computer or server must be reachable over SSH. Herdr is required for the integrated agent and workspace features; ordinary SSH and SFTP connections do not require it. Agent software and any model-provider accounts are configured on your remote machine. Whip is an independent app and is not developed, maintained, or endorsed by the Herdr project or the supported agent providers.

NanoIP shows the public IP address your iPhone is actually using — IPv4 and IPv6 together — and says plainly how your traffic is reaching the internet. EVERY APPLE DEVICE NanoIP runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV, with a free Apple Watch app. The appearances are one purchase that unlocks on all of them, and your exit history follows you through your own iCloud. ON THE MAP See where your exit surfaces. A soft disc over the country when that is all the on-device database knows; a point when you switch city lookup on. Both address families, and a line between them when they surface in different places. Positions come from the address, never from Location Services. HISTORY Every change of exit is kept — a new network, a VPN coming up or going down — as a timeline, a map of every place your exits have been, and a “Passport”: countries, networks, time spent on VPN. Stored on your iPhone and, if you like, in your own iCloud private database, which nobody else can read. Delete a row or clear it all at any time. THIS DEVICE Your side of the connection, drawn as a path: device — interface — tunnel, if there is one — gateway — DNS — exit. Then every interface that has an address, with each address labelled global, private or link-local, and the path's own flags: IPv4, IPv6, expensive, Low Data Mode. No permission asked; nothing here leaves the device. LOOK UP ANY ADDRESS Type an IP address or a domain: country, network, reverse DNS, whether it answers on port 443, and its place on the map — against the same offline databases. SHARE IT One tap turns the exit into a card made for a chat: the address large, the country and network, a map of where it surfaces, the time, and the app’s name. Privacy mode masks the address and drops the map before anything leaves. TOLD WHEN IT CHANGES Turn on alerts and NanoIP notifies you when it notices a different exit — best effort, whenever iOS lets it check. APPLE WATCH Your exit on the wrist: the address, where it surfaces and the latest changes, sent from your iPhone. Four complications and a Control Center control. Free, like every widget. WIDGETS, EVERY SIZE, FREE Small, medium and large on the Home Screen. Circular, rectangular and inline on the Lock Screen. StandBy on the nightstand. A one-tap control in Control Centre. Every size is free, and stays free. RESOLVED ON THE DEVICE Country and network are looked up in a database that ships inside the app. Your address is not sent anywhere to be identified. No account, no ads, no tracking, no subscription. IPv4 AND IPv6, SIDE BY SIDE Most tools show one of them. NanoIP shows both — and when one is missing it says which is true: that this network does not carry it, or that nothing answered. Those are different facts and they deserve different words. KNOW YOUR EXIT NanoIP reads the local network path to tell whether this device is going out through a VPN or a proxy, and labels an exit that belongs to a hosting network. It describes what it sees. It never tells you that you are “safe” or “at risk”. PRIVACY MODE Mask the second half of every address — everywhere, or only where a screen can be read over your shoulder. Copying still gives you the whole address. SIX APPEARANCES System is free. Dot, Passport, Boarding Pass, Terminal and Aurora are one optional purchase. Each is a different layout and typeface, not just a different colour, so they stay recognisable even where the system flattens colour away. You can try them for 24 hours before deciding. One purchase unlocks them on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV; Apple Watch has its own design. CITY LOOKUP, IF YOU WANT IT Off unless you turn it on. When on, NanoIP asks its own server for the city, time zone and network type behind your address. It is the only request that ever carries your address off the device, and it is yours to switch on. One purchase, no subscription. Questions or ideas are welcome — the address is in Settings.
