5 ★ So far this ddns updater is the best with rich feature. Next update please consider to add feature only update if connect to specific ssid if wifi down and reconnect with check last ip without countdown. That will give user to choice only update with reconnect wifi (mostly caused by electrical down). This will reduce smartphone bat n ram usage because no countdown and not always re update. If you do that your application became perfect...
5 ★ This Dynamic DNS Update app is great! Thanks to the configurable URL feature, I could write a simple python CGI to update my Android's LDAP-backed DNS entry. Most other DDNS clients provide only a set of pre-configured services where extra CNAME or other antics are required to resolve the name in a different domain. Thanks for the nice app.
3 ★ So far 25%of the battery taken only for this app. Which isn't acceptable. Please fix battery consumption... Thanks
5 ★ It's working precisely on my OpenDNS configuration. Problem of manually updating the IP again and again is gone now :)
1 ★ This app is a real resource hog, eating 8-9% of CPU (which is 75% of the total CPU consumption), 60-65 MB of RAM (which is 15% of the total RAM consumption) and 33% of the total battery consumption, while it is supposed to perform only a few simple HTTP requests every once in a while. So, there must be something else going on in the background (spyware activities?). My Dynamic DNS provider's logs also revealed that the update requests do not always contain the current IP-address (malformed update URL), making my hosts unreachable (incorrectly resolved). In short: A malfunctioning resource hog, to be abandoned!
5 ★ Quickest update time. Love the auto check based on network switches. Only feature request would be to put specific wifi networks on the don't update list.
5 ★ Has a lot more functions and services than I need but works flawlessly with a tiny footprint. Another great app from a trusted developer. 5 stars
5 ★ My router has this function but it doesn't work correctly, was really easy to use this app plus I like the function to make sure it only sends updates when connected to a certain Wi-Fi connection
4 ★ It's always crash when I set it to auto start, so I must start it every time I reboot my android
4 ★ I'm using this in my living root Android TV. Works flawlessly. Very rarely the app doe's not run in background. Otherwise, it has been good.
4 ★ Can you tell me why sometimes the updated ip address doesn't work?
3 ★ how to get IPv4? %ip% is the public IP
5 ★ Does exactly as it should, occasionally drops, but generally don't need to worry about updating my services manually with no need for a PC to be running :)
4 ★ Can I update my hostname when connected only my phone via cellular internet? Because when I need it, I am on the road.
5 ★ Excellent work done, very useful ddns app doing a great job
