Did you miss yesterday’s roundup of the best paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free? Well definitely go back and check it out because there are still some freebies to be found. We’ve got a fresh list of apps for you to look through on Wednesday though, and you’ll find it below.
This post covers paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. BGR is not affiliated with any app developers. There is no way to tell how long they will be free. These sales could end an hour from now or a week from now — obviously, the only thing we can guarantee is that they were free at the time this post was written. If you click on a link and see a price listed next to an app instead of the word “get,” it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app anyway, you will be charged by Apple. Some apps may have additional in-app purchases. Subscribe to our RSS feed to be notified as soon as these posts are published and you’ll avoid missing the sales we cover.
Net Status – Server Monitor
Normally $3.99.
Net Status lets you get a fast glimpse of what is happening now with your hosts, routers and other network devices connected to the Internet or LAN.
The tool checks network services your hosts run for availability and presents the information in a convenient way in order to speed up the diagnostics of network problems. With Net Status you can quickly and easily determine which hosts and services are down from your monitoring list.
Net Status employs asynchronous algorithms that allow Net Status to operate really fast. Fractions of a second are needed to check a host with quite a number of running services. Even problematic hosts won’t slow down the check process for a time much longer than a timeout you specify.
FEATURES
– Group hosts into multiple checklists
– Automatic scan of hosts for running services
– E-mail check results
– Predefined services for your convenience
– Possibility to add custom services
– Checks ICMP, TCP and UDP
– MAC address and hardware vendor lookup
– Wake on LAN or Wi-Fi
– Wake over the Internet (using proper routers)
– Ping hosts with integrated tool
