Firewall iP for iPhone Gets a Major Update

Yllier the developer of Firewall iP, has announced version 1.2, a major update to the firewall application for the iPhone.

New Features:
* WhoIs: when FiP’s main popup appears you’ll see that the hostname is now in a button. when you tap the button a new view will appear containing the the whoIs-info for the domain/IP (if available)
* allow/deny connection for this session (the connection is allowed/denied till you exit the app)
* log (can be enabled in the info view; the (i) button on the main screen)
* a second theme for the popup (can be changed in the info view)
* if you are in a host view (any allow/deny table) you can now edit the hostnames if you put the table into edit mode (simply tab on the hostname in edit mode).
* manually add hostnames to allow/deny for an app
* the allow/deny for an app now supports also the *host.com notation (like global allow/deny). meaning that if you change a hostname to *hostname.com the host and all subdomains will be affected. if you use *.hostname.com only subdomains will be affected).

You can download and purchase Firewall iP from the Cydia Store for $2.49.
