DOCSIOS is a native companion app for DOCSight, the open-source DOCSIS network monitoring tool. It brings your cable connection metrics to iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, widgets, and Live Activities. Get a clear overview of your connection health with signal-family cards, mini charts, range bars, recent events, collector status, speed test results, and monitoring data. DOCSIOS helps you understand downstream and upstream power, SNR/MER, modulation, OFDM/OFDMA, and uncorrectable errors without digging through raw modem data. Open focused details for channels, trends, modulation, events, speed tests, monitor targets, segment utilization, comparisons, BQM, Smokeping, snapshots, incidents, exports, and complaint workflows. The Apple Watch app and Home Screen widgets make it easy to check your connection at a glance. Local badges, notifications, and Live Activities help you keep track of relevant status changes and unacknowledged events. DOCSIOS communicates exclusively with your self-hosted DOCSight instance. No diagnostic data is collected, sold, or transmitted to third parties by DOCSIOS. DOCSIOS requires a running DOCSight backend. Full functionality requires a recent DOCSight version with current dashboard and signal-family metric support. DOCSIOS is an independent community project and is not developed or maintained by the official DOCSight team. ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.4.3 — 2026-09-11 Improved compatibility with current DOCSight server versions. Fixed channel loading when signal values are unavailable, and improved channel history and comparison for installations with duplicate channel IDs. This is a maintenance update with bug fixes only. ### 1.4.2 — 2026-06-10 Important: DOCSIOS 1.4 requires DOCSight backend v2026-05-27.1 or newer for full functionality, including the new Dashboard signal cards and family-based trend views. Older backend versions do not provide all required signal-family metrics. DOCSIOS 1.4 brings a redesigned Dashboard with a new Liquid Glass visual style, clearer signal health summaries, richer KPI cards, mini charts, range bars, and focused detail sheets. Navigation is now simpler: the tab bar focuses on Dashboard, Tools, Documentation, and Settings, while secondary views are grouped into clearer hubs and are also easier to reach from Dashboard cards. This update also refreshes widgets and the Apple Watch Dashboard with updated signal metrics, OFDMA-aware handling, improved health states, chart inspection polish, and broader regression coverage. - 1.4.2 fixes an issue where Dashboard mini charts could disappear after the app had been running for a while or returning from the background. It also improves Dashboard trend sheet loading to prevent charts from briefly jumping into place. ### 1.4.1 — 2026-06-04 Important: DOCSIOS 1.4 requires DOCSight backend v2026-05-27.1 or newer for full functionality, including the new Dashboard signal cards and family-based trend views.

This update also refreshes widgets and the Apple Watch Dashboard with updated signal metrics, OFDMA-aware handling, improved health states, chart inspection polish, and broader regression coverage. - 1.4.1 fixes an issue where some Dashboard tiles could stay in the previous Light or Dark appearance after switching iOS appearance modes. ### 1.4 — 2026-06-01 Important: DOCSIOS 1.4 requires DOCSight backend v2026-05-27.1 or newer for full functionality, including the new Dashboard signal cards and family-based trend views.

On iPhone and iPad, events now show richer DOCSight metadata, including improved SNR affected-channel presentation, modulation details, better channel subtitles, and improved handling for filtered unread events. The iPad dashboard layout has been refined with tighter card columns and better use of available space. Notifications now open more directly into the relevant DOCSIOS context, including event, speedtest, and monitor-related destinations where available. This release also improves reliability and responsiveness across Apple Watch sync, startup refresh, chart rendering, manual polling, widgets, large API responses, journal setup, offline cache behavior, backend URL handling, and authenticated API URL validation. ## Apps similar to DOCSIOS | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Jumpstart - Client for UpSnap](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/jumpstart-client-for-upsnap/id6757349602) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Utilities | | [OPN Admin for OPNsense](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/opn-admin-for-opnsense/id6764052013) | 5.0 (8) | Free | Utilities | | [Netmaker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/netmaker/id6479694220) | 1.0 (1) | Free | Utilities | | [Firezone](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/firezone/id6443661826) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Utilities | | [NASmeister](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/nasmeister/id1020839148) | 4.3 (235) | Free | Utilities | | [iPerf - Speed Test Tool](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/iperf-speed-test-tool/id951598770) | 4.2 (19) | $1.99 | Utilities | --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
