Capability matrix
A privacy-first status board
Add routers, IoT devices, APIs, or public sites, then probe them with ICMP, TCP, or HTTP/HTTPS. All from your phone, with history and alerts kept on-device.
- ICMP, TCP, HTTP / HTTPS
- Ping, port checks, and HTTP GET (success on 200 OK) from your phone.
- Status board
- Online / offline tiles, latency sparklines, and status filters so failures sort first.
- Background checks
- About every 15 minutes on-device, with local notifications when a check fails.
- History
- On-device logs, 7-day uptime, plus latency and uptime charts.
- LAN-friendly
- Works with local IPs when you are on that network, including cleartext HTTP for IoT diagnostics.
- No account
- Zero SudoCod backend for your endpoints. Host list and history stay on the device.

Privacy
Built to stay local
- Host list and history stored on device only
- No SudoCod analytics, ads, or account
- Probes go only to hosts you configure
- Purchases handled by Google Play or the App Store (entitlement only, not your endpoints)
Protocol
FAQ
- Do you see my host list?
- No. Ping Canary does not send your host list, notes, or check history to SudoCod servers.
- Is it a subscription?
- Yes. Ping Canary Pro is a yearly auto-renewing plan via Google Play or the App Store, with a 14-day free trial for eligible new subscribers. Price is shown in the store (marketed about $1/year where offered). Cancel anytime in that store’s subscription settings. Play and App Store purchases are separate.
- Where do probes go?
- Only to the hosts you add (plus DNS as needed). Store billing talks to Google or Apple for entitlements, never for your endpoint list.
- Which platforms?
- Android 8.0+ (API 26+) and iOS. Package / bundle ID com.sudocod.pingcanary on both.
