Why use DDNS

As IPv6 spreads, you often maintain both A and AAAA records. Split-stack aware DDNS reduces mistakes when IPv4 and IPv6 are managed separately.

If DNS for your domains is hosted at DigitalOcean, create a dedicated profile in DDNS Updater and manage it alongside home broadband, cloud VMs, or domains at other registrars.

What DDNS Updater does

DDNS Updater is a cross-platform dynamic DNS client. It uses the same configuration model on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, and the web, with split IPv4/IPv6 stacks, several ways to discover your public IP, and both manual and scheduled updates.

  • Dedicated integration and credentials for DigitalOcean
  • Public IP via HTTP, a network interface, or a custom command
  • Multiple profiles: separate domains, providers, and uplinks
  • Open source: the ddns-updater organization on GitHub

More providers

DDNS Updater also supports dozens of other DNS and DDNS providers. View the full list.
