App Details
A Homebrew application that checks if Atmosphere's DNS.mitm configuration is working correctly.
- Minimal and fast.
- Checks if telemetry, connection tests, and firmware updates are blocked.
- Recognizes custom DNS redirection.
I initially developed this software because Switch 90DNS Tester hadn't been updated in a long time. Now it's kind of its own thing. I think the primary use-case for this software is to ensure firmware updates are blocked, as future Atmosphere updates aren't as guaranteed without SciresM.
