About
Specula watches the services you host yourself and tells you at a glance which
ones are running, which are struggling and which one just went down.
No account, no middleman server, no telemetry: the app queries your machines
directly on your network. Your API keys stay on your device.
A DASHBOARD, NOT A LIST OF LINKS
Every service shows its real metrics, read through its own API: Immich's photo
count, AdGuard's blocked queries, your NAS's free space, Proxmox's containers,
the volumes filling up. The service type is recognised automatically — Immich,
Nextcloud, Home Assistant, Proxmox, OpenMediaVault, UniFi, Portainer,
Vaultwarden, Paperless and many more.
UP AND RUNNING IN THREE MINUTES
Scan your network: Specula finds your services on its own. Or import the
services.yaml you already use with Homepage — groups, URLs and widgets carry
over as they are. Otherwise, add an address by hand.
THE OUTAGES THAT MATTER
A service that stops answering after three attempts triggers a notification. The
status wall keeps thirty days of history and works out each service's real
uptime. Alerts — service offline, disk full, temperature — are enabled one by
one, and a volume that is meant to be full is excluded with a single gesture.
WHEREVER YOU LOOK
iPhone, iPad, Mac, with widgets on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen, a Live
Activity during an outage and access from the Mac menu bar. One address per
service: the one that answers from your device, whether you go through the local
network, a VPN, a reverse proxy or a tunnel.
TRY IT BEFORE YOU SET IT UP
A complete demo mode, with simulated data, shows you the app working without
installing anything.
FOUR SERVICES ON THE HOUSE
The first four services are free, with no account and no time limit. Beyond
that, each slot is bought once and stays yours, and you can also lift the limit
permanently in one go and support the project. See the App Store for pricing.
Slots you buy follow you from one device to another.
