Microsoft Cloud Switcher allows users to pre-configure the target cloud for Microsoft 365 apps installed on the device. It allows switching between the Public Cloud, the Microsoft 365 Bleu Cloud, and the Microsoft 365 Delos Cloud. This app is for customers of the Microsoft 365 Bleu and Delos national partner clouds only. It is not intended for users of Microsoft consumer online services or other clouds. If you are unsure about the implications of switching, please contact your IT Administrator before making any changes.
HostBox
Read full descriptionHide full description
HostBox is the deploy-layer iOS app for My T (not a Docker terminal inside My T). SSH into your own VPS from iPhone and install My T Server: • TeslaMate + TeslaMateAPI • Optional My T Companion • Optional temporary public IP or Cloudflare Tunnel • Unified entry, step-by-step progress, and health checks • SSH command console and maintenance tools for your own server Temporary-IP mode publishes only the Bearer-protected My T API. TeslaMate web and Grafana remain private on the VPS, so first-time vehicle authorization and dashboards require an SSH tunnel from a computer. With Cloudflare Tunnel/domain mode, those pages can open directly in a phone browser. When finished, open My T from the completion screen. The URL contains no secret; a five-minute local connection package supplies the full setup. My T tests it and asks whether to overwrite an existing connection or save another name. Passwords, private keys, Tokens, and Cloudflare secrets stay in on-device Keychain. Optional iCloud backup contains non-secret connection metadata only and requires credentials and SSH host trust to be established again after restore. Remote commands run on your server. You need your own VPS and (optionally) a Cloudflare account. You still authorize the vehicle in the TeslaMate web UI.
