### 5/5 — Update idea

*2026-03-09, version 2.0.3*

Should add a feature where you get notified when somebody leaves or joins the server

### 4/5 — Great!

*2026-02-25, version 2.0.3*

The app is amazing when you have your own server to track.

### 5/5 — Very cool idea! Does what is proposes.

*2026-01-07, version 2.0.3*

Simple UI, widget synced to the server and easy configuration. Just wished it had server commands.

### 5/5 — Cool idea, but the widget doesn’t work.

*2026-01-01, version 2.0.3*

I added a server to the list, and then added a widget. Whenever I try to edit it via holding and tapping “Edit Widget” it doesn’t let me change anything, and whenever I press the Edit Widget button on the widget it doesn’t work either, just brings me to the app. Also, the Siri function doesn’t work and I went into app settings on the Settings app and Siri is fully enabled. Idk if I’m just an idiot, but it doesn’t seem to work for me.
Edit: i was able to get the widget to work, and the Siri not working isn’t that big of a deal! 5 star

### 5/5 — W app
