- Mac users inspecting Bonjour devices on a local network
- Worth noticing
- Discovered devices stay in memory only; the help section explains why VLANs or guest networks may hide Bonjour announcements.
Field notes
The app groups discoveries by device or service type and can switch between those views. Its detail pane exposes interface, address and port information alongside decoded TXT data and raw DNS records. The page says inactive items can be kept visible for a chosen interval, and explains that Bonjour announcements may not cross VLANs, guest networks or other network segments.
