Very Usable

I use this all the time to monitor numerous topics/messages on my broker backbone. I use MQTT messages to monitor 6 different solar battery systems, 2 water tanks, thermal sensors, etc. Many of these messages are parsed and put in a MariaDB, but some are just sent to the broker so having a good client that lets me watch them as needed is a real help. Only issue I have is that when switching between apps I get disconnected from the server too often. Some of the messages are only posted every 5 or 10 minutes, so I wish I didn't have to just sit with this app in the foreground all the time so I don't miss messages. Other than that, great tool!

Great utility

This tool is an excellent mobile substitute for the MQTT Explorer desktop app. It’s simple, flexible, and straightforward. I like that it’s open source, so I can learn from it and someday maybe write my own app!

Nice work

I am developing a containerized app to periodically poll EDS MeshNet environmental sensors via HTPP on my LAN and publish the data to Mosquitto MQTT for discovery and use within Home Assistant. I have been using MQTT explorer on windows for debugging but this is the best app I’ve seen for iOS. Nice work!

The best for Home automation development

Its just the best and did I say it’s free? The maintainer of this app has done amazing work. Really should be proud of it. Many thanks!

Great little app

Does just what you wanted to. With clean UI and real time too.
Would be happy to pay $1 or two for this. Just saying!

Best Matt for apple products

I really like this for looking at my home assist Matt instance . I am no where near an expert on Matt and this auto detects my topics and present the data in a highly useable format. Highly recommended!

Best MQTT browser that I’ve found

Tried a few others and did not like that they did not let you just look at the latest message updating live. This one is great in that event and breaks down the individual properties in the JSON. The Siri shortcuts support sounds awesome. I probably won’t use it since I use Home Assistant for all my automations, but nice to know it’s there.

Web sockets doesn’t work

It’s a nice tool but unfortunately the web sockets protocol does not work

Great Tool, deserves more reviews

I’m using 1.7.2 and it’s working great. I think some of the low star reviews were from earlier versions, and things are working fine now.

I’m re-architecting my home automation system and using mqtt for zwave, node-red and presence sensors. This app is perfect for this, and it ever breaks down the JSON payloads into describe values.

Ignores changed message/topic limit

When I raise the message/topic limit and hit save, I still get a complaint about exceeding the limit, and when I go back to Edit, that setting is gone (and the More settings switch is off again). Cannot use.

Thank you for the bug report! This issue will get fixed with the next release (1.7.1) Update is now released 😄

At last! A good MQTT client app!

I've tried a few MQTT clients over the last year or so and most of them work, but the layout and execution is poor.

This app seems to have been designed by people that actually use their own software and it works really well, so thanks for that. The UX is good also. What I particularly like is the ability to mark messages read and also clear them: this wins a major battle with clutter! It connects to my MQTT server without problems.

The only slight nibble is that I can't remove the 2 preset entries, but other than this it just works.

Not working yet

Hi

I made an error on my previous review. It was actually port 8883 with a CA server certificate. It works with MQTT.fx on Windows, is there an issue possibly?

Best looking MQTT app on iOS. :)

🚀 Update 2: Release 1.5 is now available and will fix this issue. Let me know when you encounter a problem. Hi Kchest63, thanks for letting me know. I'm sad to here you have a problem. Can you please provide some more information, so that I'm able to reproduce this issue? Please fill an issue ticket on GitHub with your device name (e.g. "iPhone 11", iOS Version and maybe you could send an screenshot. 🚀 Update 1: This issue will get fixed with the next release. 🚀 Workaround As a workaround you can turn your iPad to portrait mode or swipe in the empty window from left to right. The iPad uses a master/detail page for the configuration and shows the empty detail page instead of the master page with the configuration.

Great App! One Small Suggestion

This is a GREAT app! Thank You!!

It would be nice to have an option to work as a background app so we do not lose (and would still collect) data when in another app! That would make a great app even greater!!!

Thank you very much for your feedback and the 5 Star Rating. Feedback is always welcome, especially constructive feedback. Unfortunately the iOS background tasks are very limited: tasks can always be interrupted or even cancelled by the operating system after a short time (3min). So collecting data in the background is not possible.
