It does what it says on the proverbial figurative tin, but at a huge cost to battery life. Running this app, the device never enters deep sleep, regardless of how one has configured it. Even when all services are disabled, the app still drains a huge amount of power. Unfortunately, no other app in the shop offers the same range of features, such as support for multiple servers, so I ultimately replaced this app with a Tasker script that is fired when network connectivity changes.

App refreshes based on SSID, I couldn't find a decent windows updater and I rarely need to fire up the Linux box. This app has worked flawlessly with Google's Dyn DNS

My new router doesn't support my DDNS server, so I'm using this amazing app on an old 'phone I no longer use to update my IP address when it changes. Only IP address changes are submitted to the server, so it's not buzzed unnecessarily. It's easy to use and really couldn't be any better. I'm getting the pro version of the app soon to support the Dev.

Android provides a callback feature to notify programs of network changes and this updater uses it if you select the option. This means your phone doesn't have to waste CPU cycles (battery life) when nothing changes. Excellent!

A great app, which is very easy to use. My DDNS provider wasn't listed on the default selections so I contacted Ice Cold Apps and they responded very quickly to tell me how to easily add the update URL and getting me up and running quickly. Really highly recommended.

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...
