mDNSShark is an open-source iPhone app that shows what is on your local network. It uses Multicast DNS (mDNS), DNS-SD, and SSDP to find printers, media servers, IoT gadgets, and other services on your Wi-Fi, with no setup. WHAT YOU GET - Device discovery: Bonjour/mDNS, SSDP, and optional subnet scans, with manufacturer lookups. - Security assessment: flags risky exposed services and checks device manufacturers against CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and the NVD. - Packet capture: see which hosts your phone talks to (DNS, SNI, ports) and export to pcap for Wireshark. - TLS Inspection (optional subscription): decrypt and read your own device's HTTPS traffic using a certificate you install and trust. PRIVACY Scans and analysis run on your phone. Your device list and scan results are never uploaded. There is no telemetry, no analytics, and no trackers. Two things leave your device, and both are visible to you: DNS lookups go to the resolver you choose (Google Public DNS by default), and the Refresh CISA Data button you tap yourself downloads CISA's public catalog and asks the NVD about device vendors seen on your network. The only permission the app needs is local network access. SUBSCRIPTION TLS Inspection Monthly is an auto-renewing monthly subscription. The price and any free trial are shown in the app before you subscribe. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, or when a free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. Discovery, scans, and the Security tab are free. OPEN SOURCE mDNSShark is built by engineers who like transparent, lightweight tools, and it is open to anyone curious about local networks.

What's new in 1.8 • Better device discovery: devices that advertise more than once, such as Macs using AirPlay, now appear as a single entry instead of duplicates. • Apple devices are now recognized and labeled as Apple, and Macs show a laptop icon. • Apple is now included in the known-vulnerability data. • Vendor advisories now appear as a small info badge on a device in the Topology view instead of changing its color, so a device's color reflects only issues found on that device. • The "vulnerable" count in the header now counts only devices with warning or critical findings, not informational notes. • Added more complete network discovery on supported networks. • TLS Inspection now skips iCloud's gateway by default, so iCloud sync is not interrupted during a capture. • Fixed a Bonjour browse error and improved scan reliability.
