SynoDocker is an app for signing in to Synology DSM and managing containers in Container Manager—without sitting at a computer. WHY SYNODOCKER If you run Home Assistant, Plex, reverse proxies, or other services in Container Manager, you often need a quick look at what is running, why something stopped, or a way to restart it while you are away. SynoDocker talks directly to your NAS. There is no SynoDocker cloud account and no extra server in the middle. SIGN IN YOUR WAY • Local IP, DDNS hostname, or QuickConnect ID • HTTP or HTTPS, including self-signed certificates on networks you trust • Common DSM ports (HTTP 5000, HTTPS 5001), or QuickConnect with no port to fill in • DSM username and password (not a QuickConnect account) • Two-factor authentication with a one-time code and a Paste shortcut • Optional Remember sign-in: the session is stored in the on-device Keychain and cleared when you sign out CONTAINER LIST After sign-in you can: • See every container’s name, image, and running or stopped status • Check CPU, memory, and network overview at a glance • Search by name or image • Filter All / Running / Stopped • Pull to refresh, or turn on auto-refresh (3, 5, 10, 30 seconds, or a custom 1–3600 seconds) The list is available after sign-in. Opening a container for full details is a premium feature. CONTAINER DETAILS (PREMIUM) Unlock monthly, yearly, or lifetime to: • View live CPU and memory • See container ID, image, project, CPU priority, memory limit, auto-restart, and web portal • Inspect network mode, gateway, IP, MAC address, restart policy, and port mappings • Read real volume mount paths and the start command • Browse environment variables as KEY / VALUE • Scroll recent logs (ANSI color codes stripped) • Long-press to copy logs, env vars, mounts, command, gateway, IP, MAC, and ports • Start, stop, restart, or force-stop a container (force-stop is for unresponsive containers—use with care) DEMO MODE Tap Try Demo on the sign-in screen to explore six sample containers with no NAS. Demo data is discarded when you leave. PRIVACY Login and container traffic go from your iPhone to the NAS you enter (and to Synology QuickConnect only if you use a QuickConnect ID). Container lists, logs, and environment variables are not uploaded to us. Purchases are handled by Apple. WHAT YOU NEED • iPhone, iOS 17 or later • A Synology NAS with Container Manager (or the older Docker package) installed and running • A DSM account allowed to use that package SUBSCRIPTIONS • Monthly — auto-renews every month • Yearly — auto-renews every year • Lifetime — one-time purchase, no renewal The container list is included after sign-in. Container details, logs, configuration, and start/stop/restart require an active subscription or a lifetime purchase. Prices are shown in the app and charged to your Apple ID. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
