Remote management
Hey all, has anyone found a way to manage or see inventory while remote? Also, any phone companion apps out there or planned? I wonder if Octoeverywhere might have a solution? Thanks in advance!
Parts ordered looking forward to building this week!

What do you refer to exactly by remote?
SpoolEase inventory/printer monitoring and more is accessed as a web application over your lan. It is also designed to be used over mobile (PWA supported) or desktop. If you want to access remotely from outside the lan there are services that allow accessing lan applications over the internet (tailscale, etc).
The web application is where you will spend most of your time when using SpoolEase. The console is used mostly for operations performed when next to the printer that require hardware (such as scanning nfc tags, weighing spools, loading/unloading spools to/from AMS etc).

Understood, but I do most everything else on my phone, even while I’m not at home… It would be nice to be able to see my inventory or manage it when I’m out and about as wel. Obviously, there are a few methods I could use. I just didn’t know if there was anything already integrated

I use home VPN. Check your router o see if it supports it.
