About

Upnp Pal

Features
Read full description

UPnP Pal lets you view and manage UPnP port mappings on your local network from your iOS device. The app can scan for your router, show the detected gateway and external IP address, list existing port mappings, and display each rule’s protocol, external port, internal target, description, and lease time. You can add new mappings, edit existing mappings, delete rules, set TCP or UDP, choose permanent or timed leases, and manually enter a gateway address when automatic discovery is not available. UPnP Pal works locally on your network and is intended for users who need a simple way to inspect and manage router port forwarding without opening a desktop terminal.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: FREEIP at Free against Upnp Pal's $0.99. FREEIP also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.5). Upnp Pal's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
