Mobile App Supported DDNS Service Recommendation

J M Posted in Technical Support 5 years ago

What DDNS services/companies are supported for the mobile app? I am currently using a free DDNS and the OSSN website says that free DDNS are not supported in the mobile app. Which DDNS service does OSSN or other users recommend in order to get mobile app functionality?

Thank you for explanation , but what does exactly OSSN have to support?

  1. User installed OSSN with abc.com with DDNS entry e.g 127.0.0.1
  2. DNS changed dynamically to 127.0.0.2 and website is still accessible by abc.com

I don't see the issue here with OSSN, because the website will be addressed using the FQDN abc.com not by IP.

@Arsalan

Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a technique for dynamically updating domains in the Domain Name System (DNS). The purpose is for a computer (e.g. a PC or a router) to automatically and quickly change the associated domain entry after changing its IP address. This means that the computer can always be reached under the same domain name, even if the user does not know the current IP address.
