About Nice Trace - Traceroute
Keep your network under control with Nice Trace - the most advanced traceroute app for iOS. The tool traces the route to the host in the Internet using easy, user-friendly interface and animations. You will immediately get information about any possible bottlenecks and problems since Nice Trace never stops working. It continues to monitor the whole path to the network resource in real time and keeps you informed.
The specially designed asynchronous algorithm lets Nice Trace quickly pass through problematic hops not hanging on them, thus increasing the speed. Now you can reach the destination host fast like never before.
FEATURES
- Real-time path monitoring with packet loss detection
- Easily spot possible network bottlenecks
- Country of origin detection of the network owner
- Network range and AS number lookup
- WHOIS hostnames, IP addresses, ASNs
- E-mail trace results
- Ultrafast asynchronous network I/O
Displays hops information (when available):
- IP address
- Reverse hostname (PTR DNS record)
- Autonomous system (AS) number
- Country of the network owner
- Average packets round trip time (RTT)
- Counts of packets that were sent and received
- Percentage of the packet loss
- IP network range (in hop details)
- Other hops IP addresses and hostnames (in hop details)

*** NOTE ON FURTHER UPDATES ***
The production cycle of all our navigation and networking apps is being switched to more frequent updates. It’s clear by now that the old cycle of rare updates delivering much features doesn’t work well. Basically working for a long time on many features of one app only lead to significant delays in updating other apps. The new cycle is set to deliver small feature updates each one or two months or even as soon as a new feature is ready – we do have really big plans for all of these apps.
Also we now have a dedicated full-time staff member that works on improving manuals for all apps. They are all to be completely rewritten to be simpler to understand in clearer English and to be translated to 10 more languages. Besides new manuals our plan includes writing and recording a set of articles and videos.
We already got a lot of feedback from you. All of it is recorded and has found its place in our plans. If you have some more feature suggestions or corrections to the app translations please tell us using the contact form on our website.
Next feature updates are scheduled for January.
Documentation, articles and videos are set to be update as soon as they are ready.
