Changelog
New features and notable improvements, newest first.
October 2026
- Redesigned dashboard. The dashboard now centers on your recent DNS changes, with check activity over time and labels for muted and CDN address changes.
- All changes view. A new tab on Alerts lists every DNS change, including ones you've already acknowledged.
- Broken channel detection. If a Slack channel, Discord webhook, or webhook URL you send alerts to is deleted outside OneDollarDNS, alerts to it are paused and you're emailed so you can reconnect it.
- Delegation monitoring. Each domain's delegation at the parent zone is checked hourly, with alerts when it changes or when your registrar's nameservers don't match the NS records your nameservers return.
- Nameserver outage alerts. You get a single alert when a set of nameservers stops replying, and hosts that can't be resolved are shown on their domain.
- Clearer billing. The billing overview shows your next invoice, and add-on costs are confirmed before you turn one on.
- In-app support. Send a support request from inside the app.
- Delegated subdomains. Hosts in subdomains delegated to other nameservers are monitored by following DNS referrals.
- Weekly monitoring digest. A weekly email summarizing checks and changes across your domains, which you can turn off in notification settings.
- Paused, not deleted. When a subscription ends, monitoring pauses and your domains are kept for 30 days, so you can pick up where you left off.
August 2026
- Free DNS tools. Public DNS lookup and reverse DNS lookup tools, including a comparison of answers across public resolvers.
- Mute record types. Silence alerts for a specific record type on a host for an hour, a day, a week, or until you turn them back on.
June 2026
- CDN address filter. Address changes caused by CDN or proxy rotation are recorded in history without sending an alert.
- DNS provider sync. Connect Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, GoDaddy, Namecheap, or Porkbun to import hosts automatically and bulk-add domains from your account.
- Blog. Guides to DNS record types, email authentication, and keeping DNS healthy.
- Social sign-in. Create an account or sign in with Google or Microsoft instead of a password.
May 2026
- Nameserver reachability alerts. Get notified when a domain's nameservers stop answering, and again when they recover.
- No-card free trial. Start a trial without entering a credit card.
- Alerts page. A dedicated page for reviewing and acknowledging DNS changes, plus a health overview on the dashboard.
- Team Notifications. Send DNS change alerts to Slack, Discord, extra email recipients, or a webhook, for your whole account or a single domain, with pause and resume per channel.
