mikr.app is the iPhone client for MikroTik Manager, the self-hosted server you run on your own infrastructure to monitor RouterOS devices. It connects only to your server and shows what that server knows, live. FLEET - One line that says whether everything is answering, then only what is not - Issues across the fleet, worst first: devices down, metrics over your server's thresholds, PoE budget, RouterOS and firmware behind - Sites, backup coverage, and the device flooding the log DEVICE - CPU, memory, temperature, PoE and power, with history - The ports drawn as they sit on the box, with live traffic per port - Clients on the network, by DHCP lease and by wireless registration - VLANs, and which ports carry each one - WireGuard and IPsec tunnels, neighbours and the device's log - A banner when a published RouterOS advisory applies to the device ACTIONS (operator accounts and above) - Test the connection, check for updates, back up the config now - Upgrade RouterOS or firmware, reboot, run a saved command template - Upgrade Jobs: cancel a queue, remove or unschedule a planned upgrade - Every action goes through your server, which checks the account's role and logs it. Viewer accounts see none of them SECURITY AND ACTIVITY - Advisories affecting your devices, worst first, and devices behind on patches - The server's activity log: who did what, with failed actions on their own SIGN-IN - The same username, password and second factor as your server's web UI - Tokens kept in the iPhone Keychain, optionally behind Face ID - Several servers, switchable - Self-signed certificates accepted once, by fingerprint, then pinned Requires a MikroTik Manager server.
