You can take a look at the official documentation for the No-IP REST services here:

No-IP has a fairly robust REST API that allows updating DNS records with a simple web call, passing in your username and password, the record you want to update, and the IP address you want to change to.

However, these are not official and often do not get updated and become stale to the point they don’t work.Ī simple and effective way to update your No-IP account from a mobile device without a No-IP mobile app download is simply to use your mobile web browser. Individual developers have posted dynamic DNS update clients on the Google Play store and Apple Store. However, as is the case with No-IP, there seems to only be a Windows client for this dynamic updating. Using a dynamic DNS service like No-IP and others, you can accomplish this goal with a static DNS record that gets updated by the service you have running on your Windows machine. This way, you never need to have a wide-open service that bots and attackers can hit 24/7 and try to compromise your network. For security purposes, I generally scope down externally facing services I have running in the home lab to FQDNs. Most modern firewalls allow using FQDNs as address objects in filtering rules. I wanted to detail for you guys a No-IP mobile app download workaround that allows updating your No-IP account from your phone. Since I am an Android user, most of the dynamic update clients found in the Google Play store have horrible reviews, are old, and just simply don’t work anymore.

I am not really sure why there aren’t more quality apps in the mobile space for dynamic update clients unless the demand is just super low. If you are a No-IP user, like me, you may be frustrated when you take a look for a mobile app that provides the functionality you need as a dynamic update client or manage your No-IP account.
