Every API can mean another credential to protect. KeyNest gives them one secure home. KeyNest is an encrypted vault for API credentials you own and are authorized to use. Add a base URL and key; KeyNest automatically recognizes the endpoint format while keeping the platform out of the interface. ONE VAULT FOR EVERY KEY • Connect to an API with a custom base URL • Automatic endpoint recognition with no platform selection required • Search, filter and organize keys with notes KNOW WHAT STILL WORKS • Validate any key in one tap — expired keys and low balances surface instantly • Display balance data when the endpoint exposes it • Low-balance and invalid-key notifications BUILT FOR YOUR TOOLS • Copy a generic Python API request • Model lists fetched directly from the configured endpoint MOVE BETWEEN YOUR DEVICES • Move credentials you own between devices you control with an encrypted QR code • Password-protected transfer codes for your personal devices • Nearby transfer between your iPhones with a 4-digit pairing code • Transfers are encrypted and require your explicit confirmation PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Keys are stored encrypted in the iOS Keychain • Device transfer and backup are intended only for credentials you own and devices you control • Face ID guards unlock, reveal, copy and delete • Clipboard auto-clears 45 seconds after a copy • No account, no cloud, no tracking — anonymous feature-usage statistics only, never key data FREE & PRO The free version includes every feature with up to 3 keys. KeyNest Pro is a one-time purchase that removes the key limit forever — no subscription.

About

Pilvi for Cloudflare

Features
Read full description

Pilvi is a Cloudflare client for iPhone and iPad. Your domains, your traffic, and the things you have deployed — read properly, on a phone. IT NEVER ASKS FOR AN API TOKEN Pilvi signs in through Cloudflare's own OAuth consent screen and keeps the result in your keychain. There is no server, no account to create, and nothing of yours ever reaches us — because there is no "us" for it to reach. Sign-in asks for read-only access; it asks for permission to change anything only at the moment you first change something. WHAT IT SHOWS • Domains — traffic, requests, data, threats and where visitors came from, on a world map • DNS — every record, with the orange cloud and TTL editable • Email Routing — rules, destinations, and a switch to turn a rule off • Certificates — including which of your proxied hostnames a certificate does not cover • Security events — what Cloudflare's firewall stopped in the last day, and which rule stopped it • Workers — requests, errors, and what each one is wired to • Pages — deployments, builds and custom domains • D1, R2, KV and Queues — what they hold, and how close today is to the free plan's limits • Tunnels — connectors, the data centres they reach, and what is on the other side ONE PAYMENT €9.99, once, for all of it. Not a subscription. There is no PRO badge anywhere in this app and no feature behind a second purchase — the whole thing works or none of it does. Try it for fourteen days first. Everything is included in the trial; nothing is crippled while you decide. IT TELLS YOU WHEN IT DOES NOT KNOW Cloudflare answers a permission you did not grant with an empty list rather than an error, which is indistinguishable from an account with nothing in it. Pilvi separates the two everywhere, and ships a Permissions screen so you can see exactly what your authorization covers. Alerts arrive as notifications when iOS wakes the app in the background — which may be twenty minutes or several hours. That is a real limit and it is stated in the app, not buried here. Pilvi is not a monitoring service, and Cloudflare's own email and webhook alerts remain the right tool for anything urgent. HAVE A LOOK FIRST There is a demo account on the sign-in screen with sample data in it. No Cloudflare account needed to see what the app does. Cloudflare is a registered trademark of Cloudflare, Inc. Pilvi is an independent app and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Cloudflare, Inc.
