“Five minutes in the terminal per staging switch, gone. One click, cache flushed.”
“No more wondering why the browser still hits the old IP. First tool I install now.”
“We toggle environments all day without ever corrupting system config.”
No. ToggleHosts changes the local hosts file on your machine. Only your computer then resolves the domain to the selected environment: neither the DNS zone nor what visitors see changes.
ToggleHosts prepares a local preview: an environment maps domains to the IP of the version you need to test. You review the diff, apply changes in a controlled way, flush DNS cache, and keep a backup so you can return to the previous state.
If a free editor covers your need, it may well be the right choice. What you get here is what happens after you hit save: entries validated before they reach the system file, a diff and a backup before every write, a warning when another tool interferes, and the system and browser DNS caches flushed automatically so the change takes effect. Same app on Windows, macOS and Linux, one-time purchase.
It is a one-time purchase. You pay once for your perpetual license (keep your version for life), with 1 year of updates included. No recurring subscription or hidden fees.
Yes. ToggleHosts creates a backup before applying changes, so you can restore your hosts file quickly if needed.
Unlimited. ToggleHosts stays fast with instant search, whether you have 10 lines or 1000+.
Yes. One click runs the correct DNS flush commands for your operating system, so changes take effect without manual steps.
ToggleHosts is a native desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. After purchase, you receive download links for all supported platforms.
A Solo license binds to one machine at a time. Use Change computer in Account (email code) when you replace hardware, limited to prevent sharing. Dual covers two machines for one person on the same email. For more devices or teammates, buy a Team license (2+ seats). Team admins can also release a device from the Team dashboard.
All licenses include email support, plus documentation for common workflows and troubleshooting.
