A quick look at DNSShift running on macOS.
What's Inside
Core DNS management, done properly, with real native macOS UI — search, list/grid views, and pagination on every screen.
Full CRUD for A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV and more, with proxy toggling and TTL control, across every zone in your account.
Bulk-update or bulk-delete DNS records across multiple domains at once, and import or export entire zone configurations.
See every subdomain across every zone in one searchable list, and add new CNAME subdomains to one or many zones at once.
Encryption mode, edge certificates, Always Use HTTPS, minimum TLS version, TLS 1.3, HSTS, and Universal SSL — per zone, styled after Cloudflare's own dashboard.
Switch between Cloudflare accounts and see requests, bandwidth, page views, and visitor analytics over 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
Every add, edit, and delete is logged locally with the record, zone, and timestamp — so you always know what changed and when.
Light & dark mode, custom accent colors, adjustable type size, global hotkeys, and search + list/grid views on every list in the app.
Why DNSShift
Your API token is stored in the macOS Keychain and used only to talk to Cloudflare's own API. There's no relay server, no analytics backend, and no third party ever sees your zone data.
DNS is just the start. DNSShift also manages Workers KV, R2 Storage, Zero Trust Tunnels, Workers, and Pages — all from the same window, with the same consistent UI.
DNSShift runs inside the macOS App Sandbox with only the entitlements it needs — network access and the file access you explicitly grant for R2 uploads and downloads.
Developer Platform
No other native Mac app manages this much of Cloudflare from one window.
wrangler secret putView every Pages project and its deployment history, retry a failed deployment or roll back to a previous one, manage custom domains, and manage environment variables for production and preview — all without leaving your Mac.
Privacy & Security
Every request goes straight from your Mac to Cloudflare's API. There is no relay server, and DNSShift does not run its own backend to route your data through.
Your Cloudflare API token is stored in the macOS Keychain, never in plain text, and never leaves your Mac except to authenticate directly with Cloudflare.
DNSShift runs in the macOS App Sandbox and only requests the entitlements it actually uses — networking, and file access you explicitly grant for R2 uploads/downloads.
