Auch Support ist super und geht auch auf wünsche und Anregungen ein. ### 1/5 — Hasn’t been updated in 5 yrs *2024-12-02, version 1.8* Very limited use ### 1/5 — 2-FA funktioniert nicht *2024-11-06* 2-FA funktioniert nicht, die Support Email Adresse existiert genauso wenig wie die Webseite des Herstellers. **Developer response:** Hallo, mit NASmeister 2 wurde die App komplett neu entwickelt. Die Zwei-Faktor-Authentifizierung wird nun unterstützt und auch unsere Support-Möglichkeiten sowie die Website sind wieder verfügbar. Seit Ihrer Bewertung hat sich sehr viel geändert. Wir würden uns freuen, wenn Sie der neuen Version noch einmal eine Chance geben. ### 1/5 — Does Not Work *2023-11-14, version 1.8* This app does not work when accessing my Synology NAS running DSM 7. A total waste of money. I suggest you use Synology's own app which does however require a monthly, or yearly subscription or one off fee. At least it works. ### 1/5 — Are you alive *2023-09-21, version 1.8* What happened did you end the development? ### 4/5 — Funktioniert nicht mehr *2023-02-16* Die App funktioniert leider nicht mehr, und die E-Mail-Adresse existiert auch nicht mehr… Also spart euch eventuell das Geld… **Developer response:** Hallo, NASmeister 2 ist jetzt verfügbar und wurde von Grund auf komplett neu entwickelt. Die App wird wieder aktiv weiterentwickelt und auch der Support ist wieder erreichbar. Seit Ihrer Bewertung hat sich sehr viel verändert. Wir würden uns freuen, wenn Sie der neuen Version noch einmal eine Chance geben. ### 1/5 — Was a great app, until the developer decided to charge for essential features *2023-02-12, version 1.8* I’ve used the app ever since DSGet got removed from the App Store. It worked great, until I was hit with a “please purchase this module” when trying to add a task ### 5/5 — Just buy the Download Station app *2022-04-25* This app is very flaky. Constant disconnects and error messages. Don’t sell an app in the App Store that you clearly don’t support anymore. $4 wasted. Zero stars. ### 4/5 — Top *2022-01-15* Geht wunderbar - mehr Plugins wären toll **Developer response:** Vielen Dank! 😊 Mit NASmeister 2 ist die App komplett neu aufgebaut worden und es gibt inzwischen deutlich mehr Module – weitere kommen laufend dazu. Vielleicht lohnt sich nach all den Jahren wieder ein Blick! ### 1/5 — Has the developer lost intetest? *2021-08-13, version 1.8* Where is version 2 that has been promised? Had this app for a while and it is ok and does a basic job. However nothing has changed or improved and no updates for over a year. Other apps are appearing that have more content and graphical presentations and are more loved by their developer. To justify the cost especialy for new purchasers the developer needs to take a more proactive role and earn their money. Having said that you can level the same charge at a large number of other developers .... I now always look at the history to see if the app has been abandoned by the developer and I prefer to spend my money with those that are never satisfied their app is good enough! Update Dec 2020 - developer has responded with news of a new version (Thanks) ..... looking forward to trying it out .... May have to update my review! ## Frequently asked questions about NASmeister ### What does NASmeister do?

Five example scripts are included. • Backup: a new tile for Hyper Backup shows whether the last run succeeded and when the next one is due; the detail adds each task's destination, size and last integrity check. Read only. • The app now follows your device language by default, and Croatian is available alongside English, Slovenian, German and French. • Lock an individual tile behind Face ID or your passcode. • Configurable tiles: point Storage, Storage Pool, Disk Health or Network at a single volume, pool, enclosure or interface. • Top processes: the CPU and Memory details show the biggest consumers on your NAS. • Filter chips in the module gallery, a mark on modules already on your dashboard, and a running-only filter in Containers. • Better VoiceOver: number tiles now speak a summary in a consistent order (name, value, then any notable difference), and even the smallest tiles include the module name. • Smoother, continuous usage colors, plus a new wide 4x1 tile for Memory and Storage. • Containers now has a visible Update button to pull a newer image. • The one-time Lifetime purchase is now the first option on the purchase screen, clearly marked as not a subscription. • Various fixes and refinements. ### 2.4 — 2026-08-19 Files (Pro): your NAS files, right from the dashboard. • Browse your NAS: the new tile opens a browser that starts at your shared folders and goes as deep as you like, with photo thumbnails in the list. • Tap a file for its details and a preview: photos, PDFs, text and more open in the system viewer. • Take files with you: download a file, or select several and let your NAS zip them, then share the result or save it to Files on your device. • Manage files too: upload from your device or photo library, create folders, rename, copy, move and delete, with a confirmation before anything is removed. • Search inside a folder and its subfolders, pack files into an archive on the NAS or extract one, and create a sharing link with a QR code. • A File Tasks screen shows what the NAS is copying, moving or deleting, even if you started it elsewhere. • Sort by name, size, date or kind; NASmeister remembers your choice. Also new: • NASmeister now speaks German and French, alongside English and Slovenian.

With Reduce Motion on, tiles no longer wobble. Bug fixes: • QuickConnect: connecting while you are away from home no longer fails with a lookup error, and a problem is reported right away instead of after about a minute. • Dashboard: tiles no longer end up on other pages after rotating the device while editing the board. • Disk Health: drives are listed in slot order again on units with more than a couple of bays. • Uptime is now the same number on the tile and on the detail screen, and its units are translated. • Clearer message when your NAS refuses a request, instead of "The data couldn't be read". ### 2.3.1 — 2026-08-17 Bug fixes: • The prompt for a self-signed certificate (the default on Synology NAS devices) is now much clearer, and cancelling explains what happened and how to change it later. • If iOS Local Network access is turned off, NASmeister now detects it and offers a shortcut to enable it, instead of a confusing timeout. • More reliable device discovery: each NAS appears once and scanning is more dependable. • Adding a server from discovery now updates the name and image when you pick a different device. • Fixed the Log Center filters not appearing on iOS 26. • Sign-in fields and several other screens are now properly translated instead of showing English. • The Rate button now opens the App Store review form directly. • Improved privacy: file paths and names are no longer included in diagnostic reports. Also: • Containers now has a visible Update button to pull a newer image. ### 2.3 — 2026-08-13 This update is focused on fixes.

A Server Colors tile shows the legend at a glance. • Containers module: manage Docker / Container Manager containers - view status and resource usage, start/stop/restart, browse details and logs, control Compose projects, and pull newer images with progress. • Full-screen landscape view: rotate your iPhone to focus on one tile at a time, plus a Kiosk mode that cycles through them automatically and keeps the screen awake. • Wake on LAN: power your NAS back on from your iPhone, or have it wake your other devices, even remotely via QuickConnect. New monitoring modules: • Disk Health - drive temperatures and S.M.A.R.T. status. • Storage Pool - RAID and pool health. • Folder Sync - status of Shared Folder Sync (S2S) tasks between two NAS devices. • Drive Sync - status of Synology Drive ShareSync connections, with folders, history, and pause/resume. Deeper insight: • Usage history for CPU, Memory, Disk and Network by day, week, month, 6 months or year - press and hold a graph to read exact values. • Choose your preferred temperature unit (°C or °F). Improvements: • Undo when you remove a tile, and a banner that lets you know when you're offline or reconnecting. • Clearer, safer prompts for self-signed certificates, plus a place in Settings to review and remove trusted ones. • More reliable server status indicators, helpful tips for gestures that are easy to miss, a "New" section highlighting recently added modules, and a refreshed Settings screen. • iCloud sync for your saved layout templates. • Better accessibility with VoiceOver and Dynamic Type, richer haptics, and completed translations. • Various bug fixes and stability improvements, including clearer login error messages. ## Apps similar to NASmeister | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Supermicro IPMIView](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/supermicro-ipmiview/id952163566) | 2.5 (28) | Free | Utilities | | [Server Status - Server monitor](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/server-status-server-monitor/id6479648296) | 5.0 (3) | Free | Utilities | | [Nitrado](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/nitrado/id495161830) | 1.8 (180) | Free | Utilities | | [NextStats](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/nextstats/id1505807447) | 4.0 (6) | Free | Utilities | | [My RPI SSH - for Raspberry PI](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/my-rpi-ssh-for-raspberry-pi/id1608405903) | 3.0 (6) | Free | Utilities | | [Sensor Logs](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/sensor-logs/id1200504481) | 5.0 (1) | $0.99 | Utilities | ## More apps by LukaHSW - [Ušen Horses Admin](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/usen-horses-admin/id6788144482) All apps by LukaHSW: https://appshunter.io/developer/359870811 ## Related topics [nas network](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/nas-network) · [nascode](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/nascode) · [nuna technologies aps](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/nuna-technologies-aps) · [naso device setup](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/naso-device-setup) · [easy nas](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/easy-nas) · [nas copy](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/nas-copy) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
