Two fixes for records that stayed out of date while the app said everything was fine. • "Update Now" now always sends your current IP to every active provider. Until now it compared the IP with the last one it had sent and, if that matched, did nothing — so it could not repair a record that had been changed elsewhere, even though the log said "IP unchanged". • A provider you add or edit — for example to point it at a new hostname — is now updated on the next check. Before, it waited for your IP to change, which could take weeks.

Two new providers — Hetzner and NextDNS — and Google Domains retired. NEW • Hetzner, through the new Hetzner Console API. Enter the hostname and an API token — the zone is found automatically. Tokens from the old Hetzner DNS Console no longer work; Hetzner retired that API in May 2026. • NextDNS Linked IP. Paste your Linked IP URL (my.nextdns.io → Setup → Linked IP) and NextDNS filtering follows your network whenever your public IPv4 address changes. No hostname, no username; the URL contains your token and is stored in the Keychain. While a VPN is active nothing is linked, so NextDNS never registers the VPN's address instead of yours. • Settings → Support now links to the website and the privacy policy. CHANGED • Google Domains has been removed. Google shut the service down after selling it to Squarespace, and updates sent there have not worked since. Existing entries are kept, marked as discontinued, and no longer contacted. FIXED • A backup containing a provider this version does not recognise no longer empties the whole list. The unknown entry is shown as not supported; every other provider keeps working.

Back up your setup, decide what Cloudflare's proxy does, and copy log entries when you need to report something. CONFIGURATION BACKUP • Export your provider setup to a file, and restore it on another device or after a reinstall. Backups work between the iPhone, iPad and Mac apps. • Credentials can be included. They are always encrypted with a passphrase you choose — DynDnsPulse never writes an API token to a file in plain text. Without that passphrase the backup cannot be restored, and it cannot be reset. • Import as Merge (only providers you don't already have) or Replace All, and see exactly what happened. • Your provider list now lives in a real file instead of the app's preferences, where it was far easier to lose. Existing setups move across on first launch. • Settings now reports credentials left behind by providers you removed, and lets you clear them deliberately. Nothing is ever deleted on its own. CLOUDFLARE PROXY • Each Cloudflare provider now chooses how the proxy is handled: leave it as set in Cloudflare, always off, or always on. • The proxy decides what the world gets back when it looks up your domain — a Cloudflare address, or this device's. Firewall allowlists, VPN peers and SSH rules need it off, otherwise you are admitting Cloudflare instead of your machine. A site hosted at home usually wants it on. ACTIVITY LOG • Press and hold an entry under Recent Activity to copy it with its timestamp — the full text, not the shortened version on screen.

This release fixes DNS updates that could fail over and over with a Cloudflare error about an identical record already existing. • If a provider was set up with only the hostname ("myMac" instead of "myMac.example.com"), the app looked for the wrong record name, then tried to create a record that already existed. The domain is now completed automatically. • An IP update no longer switches off Cloudflare's proxy or resets a custom TTL. A record kept behind the proxy — so your home address stays out of public DNS — had that quietly turned off on every IP change. Both settings are now left exactly as you set them. • On domains with more than 100 DNS records, only the first 100 were ever read, so a record beyond that looked missing. The whole zone is now read. • A provider stuck on the same error no longer notifies you every five minutes. You are told once, and again only if the error changes or the provider recovers. • Before a record is created, the activity log now notes what was searched for and what the zone returned — so a failure explains itself.

New in 1.1.0 • Choose your IP-check services: Settings now lists the fallback providers, so you can reorder them to put your preferred one first, or switch off any that don't work on your network. Your own IP-check URL is still always tried first. • Live status: the Dashboard status card now counts down to the next automatic check, updating every second. • Clearer VPN status: the VPN state is now part of the status card and tells "updates paused by VPN" apart from "VPN active, still updating". • Faster fallback: IP-address checks now give up on an unresponsive service after 8 seconds instead of waiting up to a minute. • Fixes: the "Last checked" time no longer briefly reads "in 0 seconds", and the rating prompt now appears as intended.

This release fixes a DNS-update bug and includes the VPN reliability improvements from 1.0.5: • Fixed a case where a DNS update could fail with a Cloudflare error ("Content for A record must be a valid IPv4 address") because an IPv6 address was picked up for the IPv4 record. IP checks now verify the address family. • "Update Now" always runs when you tap it — even if automatic updates are off or paused for a VPN. • The Dashboard now clearly shows "Paused — VPN active" while a VPN pauses updates. • More resilient IP checks: if the primary service can't be reached (e.g. under some VPNs), the app automatically tries several alternatives — including a DNS-free Cloudflare endpoint — before reporting a problem, with a clear message. • Settings now shows the IP-check fallback order, and the activity log notes when a fallback recovered a check. • Activity-log messages and notifications are now consistently in English.

• Fixed background updates: on some iOS versions the automatic DNS refresh could stop working, or the app could crash when reopened. Background updates are now reliable. • Rate DynDnsPulse with Apple's native rating sheet, right in the app. • New Support section in Settings: report a bug, request a feature, or leave a rating.

What's New • New: Notification toggle in Settings → General — enable or disable update notifications without revoking system permission. Bug Fixes • VPN detection no longer shows a false "VPN active" warning when no VPN is connected. • Cloudflare: domain names with uppercase letters are now matched correctly. • Cloudflare: fixed error 81058 when multiple A/AAAA records exist for the same domain — the app now checks if the current IP is already present before updating. • Cloudflare: error messages now show the actual error code and description from the API. Improvements • VPN status updates instantly when a VPN connects or disconnects.
