Shellbee vs TrueDash

Your Zigbee network, in your pocket and on your iPad. Shellbee is a native app for Zigbee2MQTT. It connects straight to your bridge and gives you a fast, Apple-native way to watch, control and configure every device, with no cloud in between. REQUIRES A ZIGBEE2MQTT SERVER Shellbee is a client app. You need your own running Zigbee2MQTT instance and an access token. Local and remote setups both work. SEE EVERYTHING AT A GLANCE • A Home screen built from cards you choose and order: Bridge Health, Network, Link Quality, Batteries, Vendors and Activity. • Needs attention shows offline devices, low batteries and weak signal before you go looking. • A live Network Map of your whole mesh, with scan progress, filters and quick look (iPad). • An Activity Center that shows what your devices are doing as it happens. CONTROL AND CONFIGURE • Controls are generated from each device's Zigbee2MQTT exposes: lights, switches, covers, fans, locks, climate and sensors. • Every setting is grouped the same way on every device, using Zigbee2MQTT's own names. • Groups and scenes: browse, edit members, rename, drag devices in. • Favorites, filters and one search across devices, groups and the device library. • Bridge settings for MQTT, serial, network, OTA, logging, availability, Home Assistant and more. PAIR AND UPDATE WITH CONFIDENCE • Permit join and a step-by-step pairing guide with live progress. • Firmware updates with progress in Live Activities on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. • Offline device documentation for how to pair and what each device can do. MORE THAN ONE BRIDGE Connect several bridges at once and see them side by side. Each has its own colour and initial, and single-bridge users see nothing extra. MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD • Full iPad workspace with a sidebar, details side by side and extra windows. • Six colour themes: Standard, Honey, Meadow, Harbor, Lavender and Ember. • Real-time WebSocket connection over ws:// or wss://, with Bonjour discovery for .local hosts. • Built in SwiftUI with Live Activities, so it feels fast and native, not like a wrapped web page. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Talks only to the bridge you choose. No ads, no tracking, no analytics and no developer server. • Access tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain. • Crash reporting is optional and off by default. Nothing is sent unless you say so, and reports never include your bridge address, token or device names. OPEN SOURCE Shellbee is licensed under AGPL v3, with the source on GitHub.

TrueDash: TrueNAS in your pocket. Built with security and privacy in mind. TrueDash is a fast, native iOS dashboard for your TrueNAS SCALE server. Monitor your system, manage your apps, storage and backups, and get push alerts when something needs attention, all in an app built on Apple's Liquid Glass design for iOS 26. Security & privacy first Your server, your data, nobody else's. TrueDash is engineered so your credentials and data never leave your control: • No analytics, no tracking, no ads, no third-party servers. • Credentials (API keys, passwords, tokens) are stored only in the iOS Keychain. • Sensitive values stay hidden on screen until you reveal them, and re-hide while your screen is recorded. • Every connection is verified with certificate pinning (Trust On First Use) to guard against interception. • Works over your local network or your own WireGuard VPN, and TrueDash never proxies your data through us. Monitor at a glance • Live dashboard: CPU, memory, network and disk I/O, uptime and system health. • Storage pools with capacity, topology and scrub status. • Disk health: temperature, error counts and drive details for every disk, with a clear warning when one needs attention. • Backups: see every snapshot, replication, Cloud Sync and rsync task and whether its last run succeeded. • Active jobs and system alerts, front and center, with TrueNAS's own guidance on how to fix them. • Customize your Status layout: reorder and hide cards to see what matters to you. Manage everything • Apps: start, stop, restart and update your TrueNAS apps, view their logs, and open their web interface with one tap. • App settings: change ports, CPU and memory limits, timezone, folders and environment variables without opening the web UI. • Stacks & Containers: control Portainer stacks, containers and virtual machines, including older VMs, with a force stop for an unresponsive one. • Shares: view your SMB and NFS shares, toggle them on or off, and choose which users can reach an SMB share. • Users: manage SMB access, lock or unlock accounts, and reset passwords. Push notifications, self-hosted Get alerted about low pool space, degraded pools, app updates and TrueNAS system alerts, delivered through a lightweight notifier you install on your own TrueNAS with a single tap. No cloud account required. Ready for what's next Built for TrueNAS 26 and its new API, and designed to make full use of larger screens.
