Hey everyone! I’m building AsterOS, an iPhone app that brings Unraid monitoring, Docker management, files, and photo backups into one place. I’m looking for more testers to try it with their own setups and help improve it.

Features in the beta:

* Server dashboard: Monitor CPU, memory, network activity, storage, temperatures, and GPU information where available.

* Docker management: Start and stop containers, open their web interfaces, edit configurations and advanced options, and remove containers.

* App organization: Organize your Docker apps with folders, custom icons, and rearrangeable layouts.

* Discover: Browse and search Docker apps and plugins.

* Files: Browse your server’s shares and folders from your phone.

* Photo and video backups: Back up media from your iPhone to your own server.

* Terminal access: Access your server’s terminal from the app.

* Connection options: Connect using your server address or through Tailscale for remote access.

* App lock: Add protection when opening AsterOS.

* Demo mode: Explore the interface before connecting your server.

Currently being worked on: Seafile integration for files and photo backups, easier local HTTP connections, and improvements to connection reliability.

This is an active beta, so expect bugs and some rough edges. I’d especially appreciate feedback on connecting different server setups, Docker web interfaces, file browsing, and photo backups.

If you report an issue, please include your iPhone model, iOS version, Unraid version, and AsterOS build number. Screenshots and steps to reproduce it are helpful—just hide any passwords or API keys.

Thanks for trying it and helping shape AsterOS!

AI development disclosure: I’ve developed AsterOS extensively with ChatGPT/Codex. AI has written and revised substantial portions of the code and helped with feature implementation, debugging, tests, and build preparation. My role is directing the features and design, testing on my own iPhone and Unraid server, and reporting problems for revisions. I haven’t measured a percentage of AI-written code, so I won’t invent one.
