Docker Manager vs ContainerDesk

Control Docker on your own servers from your phone, over plain SSH or the Docker Engine API. Nothing to install on the server: no agent, no web panel. CONTAINERS • Start, stop, restart, pause, rename, set CPU and memory limits • Live CPU, memory, network and disk stats • Logs with a time range, shareable as a text file • Terminal and file manager inside any container COMPOSE STACKS • Deploy, edit and update stacks with one tap • Per-service scale, restart and logs • Edit a stack's .env with an automatic backup IMAGES, VOLUMES & NETWORKS • Pull, inspect and prune with a preview of what will be deleted • Vulnerability scan for any image (uses Trivy or Grype) • Disk usage breakdown, volume backup and restore • Connect and disconnect containers from networks MONITOR & PROTECT • Dashboard for every host, plus a Docker event log • Optional alerts when a container stops or an endpoint goes down • Home-screen widgets • Face ID / Touch ID lock, SSH host-key pinning, credentials kept in secure storage • Security review of privileged containers and exposed ports APPLE WATCH • Every container on every host, on your wrist, with running and stopped filters • Start, stop, restart, pause and resume, with a confirm step first • Container details: image, uptime, restarts, ports, CPU and memory • Your hosts, keys and passwords stay on your iPhone Free to use, with optional supporter purchases.
