I don’t get it. Why wouldn’t you just make this a hosted service instead of a mobile app? Better, why wouldn’t you just use Prometheus for this instead of some rando tool?
To have informations on my phone home, to easily, from anywhere check/monitor my servers and ssh on them.
I selfhost CheckMK, as I’m not a Grafana fan, these tools are fine to monitor and get alerts but don’t have apps…

To not have to deploy software on the server. You can connect to any Linux Server you want and get that information.
The instructions literally say you are doing exactly that.
Dafuq are you talking about?
Which instructions are you referring to? The instruction for OPTIONAL push notifications?
The server-side software is optional and only for push notifications and home screen widgets
Yeah, so like every single other monitor platform out there that is open source and widely used.
I’m asking WHY this specific thing does something better or different?
It’s a mobile app for server monitoring that doesn’t require installations on the server.
Also, is this tone really necessary?
For stuff like this I use cockpit. There’s no mobile app but the web ui is good enough to use it on mobile.
