I loved this app and purchased when it was octoclient. Since the change to polymer it has lost all functionality. Not to mention the change to a cloud subscription model be a direct connect app. Waste of money. Unable to connect and now must pay a monthly susbscription is you want to stream your print video for more than 2 min.
There are some limitations to interacting with your octoprint instance, but I can monitor prints, view my camera, restart prints from old files, etc. to do it all for free deserves 5 stars.
I've tried a few octoprint clients for mobile, and this one is by far the most reliable. Others had issues reconnecting after the app was backgrounded, but here I can see everything I need to up front in one place.
I have been using the Pro version for 2 printers and it is very handy to have so I can manage my printers away from my PC. I really like the interface and how easy it is to use. The only thing it is currently lacking is push notifications and those are planned per the dev.
Great app for local access. We run a CNC / laser shop & we are constantly on the go between the office & shop. Tells me almost everything I want to know about the print.
For those who live in a region of the world where that’s not a common phrase, it’s slang for “really really good.” A ton of features, even at the basic tier, super responsive, and has that almost-looks-like-a-native-Apple-app design that’s just *chef’s kiss*
If you use Octoprint, you don’t want to pass on this app. It’s super reliable, easy to use, and saves a ton of time in set-up. I use it while leveling, cleaning the nozzle, or just to check on a print while I’m pooping.
My favorite feature is the custom g-code commands. Simply type in the g-code you want, and it’s accessible to you with the push of a (virtual) button. I can’t recommend this app highly enough!
Developer Response
Wow, that's very high praise! Thank you so much for the review and for using Polymer 😁The app does everything you want it to do with a great modern, native iOS style UI. The OctoEverywhere integration makes keeping an eye on my prints from anywhere super easy!
This app is exactly what you want if you searched the App Store for octopi. It provides an excellent way to control a 3D printer including viewing the camera, moving the axis, starting / stopping prints, and even using manual gcode commands. can load up a bunch of sliced files from my computer and then never need to go back to the computer to print them all, I just use this client.
Having this app on a phone makes checking in on a print so much more convenient. Just open the app and quickly make sure everything is going smoothly.
I find great value in this app and you will too if you are a regular user of Octoprint.
This is by far the best Octoprint app on the App Store. I use it every day to manage my printers and it has made my life infinitely easier and much more enjoyable. From it’s looks to its functionality, it’s a pretty perfect achievement, however, there is one feature that i would love to see added. If it would be possible, it would be extremely convenient to have an easy to access way to switch from printer to printer. The current method isn’t bad at all, but it gets a bit tedious having to go off into other menus to switch to my other printers. If there were possibly a logo of a printer on the bottom right of the defaults status screen (which shows the video and hotend/bed temperatures) where you could quickly switch from printer to printer, that would be greatly appreciated. All around amazing app and keep up the good work :)
