WhatRoute is a network analysis tool for macOS that visualizes the geographic path of Internet traffic between your computer and remote hosts. It performs traceroute operations and maps the physical locations of routers along the network path using IP geolocation data, overlaying results on Apple Maps or Google Maps for detailed visualization. The app is used by network administrators, security professionals, educators and curious users who want to understand the physical geography of Internet routing. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWhatRoute has shipped a native Apple Silicon build as a Universal Binary since version 2.3.5. The vendor's download page at whatroute.net/download.html automatically serves the native build to M-series Macs, so you can simply visit the download page, grab the latest WhatRoute 2.x.x installer, and run it. The Universal Binary will detect your Mac's architecture and install the native version. Alternatively, if WhatRoute is already installed, you can trigger an automatic update check by opening the app and selecting Check for Updates from the menu — the built-in Sparkle updater will fetch the latest native build. Your existing settings, network profiles and preferences will carry over without any manual migration.
