Check your n8n automations when you are away from your desk. Nodey connects to your existing n8n instance so you can review workflows, inspect executions, and understand failures from your iPhone or iPad. CONNECT YOUR INSTANCE Add your n8n server address and API key. Use a self-hosted or n8n Cloud instance with API access. Try the built-in demo before connecting. Nodey does not host n8n or provide an n8n account. SEE WHAT HAPPENED Review recent runs and execution status. Open an execution to inspect its details, error message, and failed node. Keep multiple instances organized in one app. GET HELP WITH AI Use optional AI tools to explain workflows, diagnose errors, and review code. Managed Nodey AI requires an eligible subscription and has daily request limits. You can also use your own supported provider API key; provider charges may apply. Nodey asks for permission before sharing workflow content with an AI provider. WORK IN YOUR LANGUAGE Choose English, French, German, or Spanish, or follow your device language. Your workflow names, code, and server data stay as you wrote them. Core monitoring is available without a Nodey subscription. Optional paid features and current prices are shown in the app. Background checks and notifications depend on device scheduling, permissions, and network availability. Nodey is an independent companion for n8n and is not affiliated with n8n. Privacy: https://getnodey.com/privacy-policy.html Terms: https://getnodey.com/terms-of-service.html

Hermex is a native iPhone and iPad client for your self-hosted Hermes agent. Connect to a reachable Hermes Web UI server, or enable the optional Bot Mode beta to connect directly to a Hermes agent host. Open existing sessions, start conversations, and follow streamed responses, tools, and reasoning as they arrive. Queue, steer, or stop an active run. Review file edits as diffs, browse workspace files, send photos and files, and dictate messages. Manage Kanban boards and cards, browse Tasks, Skills, Memory, and Usage, and choose models, profiles, and reasoning settings. Bot Mode adds a Bots inbox, Desktop sections, reactions, quick replies, approvals, questions, and group rooms. Live Activities keep working runs visible on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Optional notifications let you know when work finishes or needs your attention. The share extension stages content from other apps for you to review and send. Agent execution happens on your configured server, not on the iPhone. Your server owns your conversations, tools, and workspace. Recent sessions and messages may be cached locally for read-only offline viewing; clear that cache from Settings. There is no Hermex-hosted agent backend, tracking, or analytics service. Optional push notifications use an open-source, self-hostable relay. Message previews are encrypted on your Hermes host and decrypted on your iPhone; the relay handles device tokens, notification metadata, and ciphertext, never message text, server URLs, or Hermes server credentials. Push is off until enabled. Hermex has no in-app account creation or in-app purchases. You need your own reachable Hermes server. Not affiliated with Nous Research.
