LocalForge is the panel for self-hosting your game servers — and this is its mobile companion. From your phone, control the servers running on your PC or VPS through the free LocalForge desktop app. What you can do: • Start, stop and restart your servers with a tap. • Watch the live console and send commands (e.g. in Minecraft). • Create and restore backups to your own S3 storage. • Schedule automatic restarts and backups. • See live CPU and memory usage. • Manage your team: invite sub-users with roles (viewer, operator, admin). • Switch between multiple machines (your desktop and your VPS agents). Supported games: Minecraft, Valheim, Palworld, Rust and more — each in its own isolated container. Private by design: your server configuration and backup credentials are end-to-end encrypted with your own key. We can't read them. Important: this is a COMPANION app. You need the free LocalForge desktop app (Windows, macOS, Linux) running at least one server, plus a subscription (Hobby or Team) for remote control and cloud sync. The desktop app is free forever for local hosting. Auto-renewable subscriptions: • Hobby — cloud sync, audit log, and one sub-user seat. • Team — everything in Hobby, plus team members and roles. Payment is charged to your App Store account. Your subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel anytime in your account settings.

Actions you take no longer fire late after a dropped connection. - **Team access on the free plan.** Members of a Team workspace can now reach the team's servers from their phone, even on a free personal plan. - **Correct server every time.** Opening a server from a crash notification now always shows that server's console, status, and stats — no more mixing it up with the last one you viewed. - **Auto-refresh after reconnecting.** The server screen catches up on status and console output as soon as the connection returns, so you don't see stale info or a gap in the log. - **Honest availability.** Start/Stop controls only show as available when a host is actually online, avoiding actions that quietly time out. - **Scheduled backups fixed.** Backups you schedule on your phone now use the storage target and retention you actually chose. - **Clearer Restore Purchases.** On a poor connection it now asks you to retry instead of wrongly reporting that no subscription was found. - **Faster, lighter config loading** when opening a server's settings. - **Security & polish.** Better sign-out cleanup on shared devices, more reliable sync setup, and fixed invitation links. Thanks for using LocalForge! --- ## Short version _For when you want the key points to fit without a "read more" (≈ 380 characters)._ Reliability update: the app now reconnects reliably after the background instead of freezing, free members can access Team servers, servers opened from a crash alert always show the right one, scheduled backups honor your chosen target/retention, and Restore Purchases gives clearer messaging. Plus faster config loading and security polish. ### 0.3.22 — 2026-07-03 • Crash push alerts: know the moment a server goes down, tap to jump right in. • Home-screen Quick Actions for your most-used servers. • Scheduled backups with automatic retention. • Start/stop failures now show feedback instead of an endless spinner. • Fixes for cold-start links, sign-in recovery and team switching. ### 0.3.20 — 2026-06-25 • Push notifications — get an instant alert on your phone the moment one of your servers crashes, so you can jump in and bring it back up. • Home-screen Quick Actions — long-press the app icon to open your most-used servers in a single tap. • Scheduled backups — back up your servers automatically on a schedule, with built-in cleanup of older backups. • Performance and reliability improvements. ### 0.3.17 — 2026-06-08 No release notes. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
