What's New in NovaScale, Built for Tailscale

1.7.0

September 30, 2026

NovaScale 1.7 brings your Herdr workspaces to iPhone and iPad. - Herdr: Discover and select sessions on Linux or Mac over Tailscale or traditional SSH. Switch workspaces, tabs, and agents with native controls; follow agent status; rename and close tabs; keep multiple sessions on the same host; and detach without stopping remote agents. Pin sessions, paste clipboard images, and dictate on supported devices. Free use includes three daily visits and one pin. Pro adds unlimited visits and pins, plus file and photo uploads, including from the system Share sheet. - SSH: Added command and argument suggestions with optional Bash/Zsh shell integration, a newline control, and dedicated debug logging. Preserve terminal history when reconnecting. Fixed tmux session detection on affected hosts. Improved the accessory keyboard, themes, and review of changed SSH host keys. - Remote Codex: Added LaTeX math rendering, adjustable text size and line spacing, search across projects, a redesigned thread list, and pin synchronization with compatible Codex desktop hosts. Added follow-up replies and updated model and Codex CLI 0.159.0 compatibility. Improved thread-list freshness and connection recovery. - Web and files: Improved address entry and access to history, favorites, and download progress. Fixed iPad playback controls being obscured in Jellyfin. Expanded SFTP syntax highlighting, including TypeScript. - Monitoring and reliability: Improved external-disk monitoring, monitoring reconnection, iCloud sync, and diagnostics. Fixed Codex and microphone crashes and refined Herdr readability, selection, and foreground recovery. Added an in-app update check. Herdr requires a compatible installation on your own host; NovaScale is tested with Herdr 0.9.1. Remote Codex requires your own Codex CLI/app-server. NovaScale is not affiliated with Tailscale Inc. or OpenAI. Thank you to everyone who has shared feature requests and issue reports. Enjoy the update, and please keep the feedback coming.

Response from developer

Thanks for your support, we will continue to optimize the feature and stability.

⚠️DO NOT DOWNLOAD: This app is a spam

This app keeps getting downloaded to my phone even after I deleted. I have no idea how it did that.

Response from developer

Hi there, we're sorry for the confusion! Technically, an app cannot reinstall itself on iOS. This usually happens if 'Automatic Downloads' is turned on in your Settings or if the app was 'Removed from Home Screen' rather than fully deleted. Please check your App Store settings or ensure the app is fully deleted from your App Library. We hope this clears things up!
