🔍 Netfox 0.12.0 — look inside any open port
Hey everyone 👋
Netfox already told you which ports are open on your network. 0.12.0 lets you see what's actually answering — read-only, all on your Mac.
🌐 A built-in web viewer
Tap an open web port and the device's own page — router, printer, NAS — opens right inside Netfox, in a viewer locked to that one device. The page works normally, nothing is stored, and it can't wander off to the rest of your network or the internet.

🔓 It catches the scary stuff, in plain English
Netfox reads how safely a service is exposed. The headline: a database reachable with no password gets flagged as High risk on sight. Turn on "inspect automatically during scans" and a forgotten dev database is caught the moment it appears.

🔍 Or just look inside anything
Any open port → the product behind it, plus a read-only peek at what it announces (an FTP/mail greeting, a database handshake, an SSH banner).

🚪 Open with the right app
One click hands SSH to Terminal, file shares to Finder, screens to Screen Sharing. Netfox never logs in for you — it just opens the door.
Also in 0.12.0: steadier device identity (a device keeps its name even when your router hands out new IPs), and the whole thing is localized in 7 languages 🌍
All read-only, off by default, and it never sends a password or a command.
