1.1.0 — 2026-10-01

The biggest release since launch: smarter outage verification, the icons view, the incident archive, CSV export, watching the Internet itself and notifications on Windows. macOS and Windows are joined by iPhone, iPad, Linux and Android, and on the Mac there is now also a .dmg file from this site.

New

  1. Icons view — services as a grid of tiles instead of a list, in three sizes (Small, Medium, Large).

  2. Sorting — manual order, by name or by last incident, ascending or descending.

  3. Drag-and-drop ordering — in the list (⋮⋮ handle) and in the icons view (drag a tile onto another one).

  4. Incident archive — “Current” and “Archive” tabs. Finished incidents can be moved to the archive and restored from it.

  5. Acknowledging incidents — a badge next to the incident, also included in the CSV export.

  6. Deleting single incidents, with confirmation. “Clear incidents” now clears only the open tab.

  7. CSV export of the log and the incident history. The file opens directly in Excel, LibreOffice or Numbers (semicolon, UTF-8).

  8. Internet connection watch — an optional notification and log entry when the device loses Internet access. Optionally, every outage also goes on the incident list.

  9. Launch at system startup — on macOS 13 or later, on Windows (through a Microsoft Store startup task) and on Linux.

  10. Web addresses — you can paste an http:// or https:// address, and the app takes the host name from it. Host names and IPv4/IPv6 addresses are validated, with clear messages.

  11. The service name is optional — an unnamed service is shown by its address, also in notifications and in the log.

  12. Better on big screens — a navigation sidebar in wide windows and on tablets, an “Add service” button in the toolbar, centered content and a minimum window size.

  13. Windows: one copy at a time — starting the app again brings up the open window.

  14. Update check in versions downloaded from nci.pl — only on demand, when you click “Check for updates”.

  15. Linux — system notifications, a tray icon, the “Quit myNetWorking” command in the settings and the Ctrl+Q shortcut. Closing the window minimizes it, and starting the app again brings up the open window.

  16. Windows — system notifications for service outages and recoveries (with sound), an alarm repeated until acknowledged, and a separate notification when the Internet connection is lost. Clicking a notification opens the app.

Changed

  1. Smarter outage verification:

    • the reference servers must agree — when some answer and others do not, the connection is treated as unstable and no service is blamed;

    • the connection is checked again after the second failed attempt;

    • for 30 seconds after connection trouble, failing services show “No network”;

    • airplane mode or an unplugged cable is recognized immediately;

    • a host name that suddenly stops resolving is treated as a network problem.

  2. Redesigned Settings in cards: General, Monitoring, Reference servers, Internet connection, Information & help. In a wide window, in two columns.

  3. Redesigned service editor with Connection, Monitoring and Alerts sections:

    • the Cancel and Save buttons are always visible, also above the on-screen keyboard;

    • a progress indicator is shown while saving;

    • the app scrolls to the first field with an error automatically.

  4. More room for data — the main screens no longer have title bars.

  5. Refreshed look tuned for desktop windows: flat surfaces, thin dividers, new status indicators and always-visible scrollbars.

  6. The empty service list has an Add service button.

  7. Android: background monitoring without a time limit. The foreground service with a permanent notification is now of the special-use type (specialUse), so the 6-hour daily limit that Android 15 places on data sync services does not apply to it.

  8. macOS 12 Monterey or later is required (version 1.0.0 ran on macOS 10.15 and later).

Fixed

  1. False “DOWN” alarms on an unstable connection, e.g. with weak Wi-Fi. Version 1.0.0 considered the Internet to be working when even one reference server answered.

  2. An incident now closes when the service recovers after a “No network” period. Previously, such an incident could stay marked as ongoing forever. An outage interrupted by a “No network” period now stays a single incident — version 1.0.0 opened a second incident and sent a second notification. Pausing a service during an outage also closes its incident, and incidents that the previous version left ongoing are closed automatically at the first start.

  3. The repeating alarm resumes after the app restarts if the service still has the “DOWN” status — together with the “Acknowledge alarm” bell.

  4. The repeating alarm no longer stops by itself when it falls due while a service that does not answer is being checked again (“Checking…”). Turning off Show notification or Repeat alarm until acknowledged, and changing the alarm repeat interval, take effect immediately, also while the alarm is running.

  5. Pasting a web address into the host field no longer creates a service that can never connect.

  6. Saving a service no longer fails after the alarm repeat field has been cleared and hidden.

  7. A quick double click on “Save” no longer adds the service twice.

  8. Errors while saving and deleting a service are now reported.

  9. An unexpected error during a check no longer changes the service’s status or creates a duplicate incident.

  10. A very long connection timeout is capped at 60 seconds.

  11. Windows: starting the app again no longer opens a second copy.

You’ll find installation instructions on the Installation page.

1.0.0 — July 2026

The first release of myNetWorking — on the Mac App Store (macOS 10.15 or later) and the Microsoft Store.

  • TCP service monitoring (host and port) with the response time in milliseconds.

  • Outage verification with reference servers: when none of them answered, the service got the “No network” status instead of “DOWN”.

  • Notifications about service outages and recoveries on macOS, with an alarm repeated until acknowledged.

  • A list of incidents with their duration, and an event log.

  • Running in the background with an icon in the menu bar (macOS) or the system tray (Windows).

  • Settings: language, re-check interval when down, connection timeout and reference servers.
