Description

Most uptime monitors run in a datacentre. Fine for a public website, useless for the NAS in your cupboard. Ping Bee checks from your phone instead, so anything your phone can reach it can watch: a NAS, Home Assistant, a Pi, a printer, a router page on a LAN address. Nothing exposed to the internet, no port forwarding, no agent to install. Public sites go in the same list. No account, no server, nothing leaves the device. Free for 5 monitors. Pro is one payment, never a subscription.

Could you build this?

Yes It is a mobile application (e.g. Flutter or React Native) that executes background local network ping or HTTP requests directly from the phone to LAN IP addresses.
