**Your servers, in your pocket.** ServerKeep gives you real-time visibility into your Linux servers and full control over your Docker containers β€” all from your iPhone or iPad. No daemons to install, no cloud services to sign up for, no agents running on your machines. ServerKeep connects directly over SSH using credentials stored securely in your device's Keychain. **Server Monitoring** Add your servers and instantly see what matters. ServerKeep pulls live system stats including CPU usage, memory breakdown, disk I/O, network throughput, and TCP health β€” presented through clean, purpose-built gauges and charts. See which servers are online at a glance, drill into detailed breakdowns, and keep tabs on temperature and uptime. **Memory Insights** Go beyond simple "used vs. free" numbers. ServerKeep breaks memory down into used, page cache, and available β€” with visual progress bars and a segmented ring chart β€” so you can tell at a glance whether your server is actually under pressure or just caching aggressively. **Docker Container Management** View all running containers across your servers. Start, stop, and restart containers with a tap. Inspect port mappings, health status, and container images. View and save Docker Compose configurations directly from the app. **Docker Compose Support** Organise your containers into Compose pods. See pod status, manage the full lifecycle, and keep your stack definitions accessible wherever you are. **Built-in Terminal** Need to run a quick command or debug something hands-on? ServerKeep includes a fully interactive SSH terminal with PTY support. No need to switch to a separate app. **Saved Snippets** Save frequently used commands as snippets and run them on any server with a single tap. Perfect for common maintenance tasks, health checks, or deployment scripts you run regularly. **Designed for Privacy** ServerKeep never phones home. Your server credentials are stored exclusively in the iOS Keychain on your device. All connections go directly from your device to your servers. There are no analytics, no tracking, and no third-party services involved. **Built Natively for iOS** ServerKeep is built entirely with SwiftUI and takes full advantage of the platform β€” smooth animations, native controls, and an interface that feels right at home on your device.
