Tap is a command remote for your infrastructure. Pre-configure SSH commands on your servers, then execute them instantly from your Apple Watch, iPhone, or Mac — no terminal needed. How it works: Your Apple Watch connects to a lightweight relay server (self-hosted on your own infrastructure) over TLS 1.3. The relay manages SSH connections to your servers and executes the commands you've configured. Everything stays on your hardware — no cloud services, no third-party access. Built for developers and sysadmins who: • Need to restart a service during dinner • Want server health at a glance on their watch face • Monitor Docker containers from their wrist • Run deploy scripts without opening a laptop • Get push alerts when a server goes down Features: • 5 watch face complications (server status, fleet metrics, Docker, uptime, quick commands) • Apple Sign-In — no passwords to manage • SSH key generation and management • Command execution with real-time output • Execution history with full stdout/stderr • Server health monitoring with push notifications • Self-hosted relay — your data stays on your infrastructure • AES-256-GCM encryption for SSH keys at rest

SET UP IN MINUTES • One tap to register your device • Step-by-step instructions for connecting Uptime Kuma • Copy your device ID and webhook URL with a single tap ALERTS THAT GET YOUR ATTENTION Choose how down notifications are delivered: • Normal: delivered like any other notification. • Time Sensitive: breaks through Focus and Do Not Disturb, so you hear about an outage even when your phone is quiet. It still respects the silent switch. OPEN SOURCE & SELF-HOSTABLE KumaPush and its relay server are fully open source. Prefer to stay in control? Host the relay yourself and point the app at it. github.com/KartoffelChipss/Kumapush YOU'RE IN CONTROL Unregister your device at any time to stop receiving notifications.
