What you get

You can keep host entries organized and switch configurations with a shortcut.

iHosts gives you a dedicated place to edit your Macโ€™s /etc/hosts file. You can arrange host entries into groups, making it easier to keep related mappings together rather than work through one undifferentiated list.

When you need a different setup, you can combine the hosts you want and switch using a shortcut. If you regularly move between sets of host mappings, this gives you a way to manage those changes without repeatedly rewriting the same entries.

You can also view your hosts in real time, with syntax highlighting to make the contents easier to scan. The app supports running in sandbox mode.
