Thank you!

It's just so if there are any issues, I can make sure I can respond correctly and prioritise ones over others depending on urgency. If there are 300+ beta testers, it can get a little messy

The more stable the app becomes, the more it can be opened up :)

My friend, the tester keeps the app afterwards

If the tester doesn't agree with it, then by all means, don't become a tester :D

Thank you - I will honestly take this feedback onboard

😆

LunaSea was brilliant but it's been discontinued since April last year, the repo's archived and it's gone from the App Store. Mine's a new native iOS app covering a lot of the same ground, and the main difference is it's actively maintained, I'm here building and supporting it. Being straight though: LunaSea was free and open source and mine's paid, so if free's a dealbreaker there are community forks like Zagreus keeping that going. I'm going for a more polished native take with ongoing support :)

Fair question. A Safari shortcut just opens each service's web UI one at a time. This pulls all your services into one native app, so you see downloads, requests, library and streams together, with proper iOS navigation, widgets, and stuff the web UIs don't do well on a phone. If the web UIs work fine for you, that's genuinely valid, this is for people who want one tidy native place for the whole stack :)

Yeah, I used AI to help build the site and write some of the copy, I'm a solo dev not a marketing team. The app itself is the part I've poured the work into. Fair cop on the site though

Thank you :) I am just trying to find footing in this space so the kind words really do help

Cheers! Yeah if you want to use it away from home you'd set up Tailscale (or a reverse proxy / VPN) first, but on your home network it just works with the local IP. No Tailscale needed if you're on the same wifi.

In testing, I have setup my own WireGuard VPN and its working brilliantly :)

Helmarr's genuinely good and more established than me, it covers more services right now, so if it does what you need it's a solid pick. Mine's newer and more focused. I'm a solo dev building it around feedback like this, so it'll move fast. Honestly happy to be compared, competition's good for everyone.

Damn, okay? It is the cheapest alternative to anything out there on iOS currently

Hey! Nope - this is not vibe coded - the app is not generic AI slop

It is built as a 1st party Apple app
