Manage your firewalls from wherever you are. NetGo puts your FortiGate firewalls in your pocket. Check status, review configs, and make changes when you're away from your desk, all from a fast, no-nonsense mobile app built for people who actually run networks. Works with FortiGate devices running FortiOS 7.4. and later MONITOR AT A GLANCE Live CPU, memory and session graphs, system info and HA cluster status. Interfaces with real-time throughput, IPsec VPN tunnels, firewall policies with live hit/session counters. Traffic logs with mobile-friendly filtering. CHANGE THINGS SAFELY: THREE WRITE MODES Use a read-only API token when you just want to look, or a read/write token when you need to fix things. Then choose how changes apply: Direct: applied instantly. Confirmation: approve each change before it's sent. Draft: queue changes and deploy them in one batch. Edit policies, address & service objects, static routes, DNS/DDNS, SD-WAN, interfaces & VLANs, zones, security profiles (Application Control, IPS, SSL inspection) and FortiSwitch ports. ALERTS THAT REACH YOU Push notifications the moment something goes wrong: an interface goes down, a VPN tunnel drops, an HA failover, high CPU, conserve mode, a reboot, license or certificate expiry, and more. You hear about problems before your users start calling. SEE WHO'S CONNECTED Browse Wi-Fi and FortiSwitch clients with search and filters, and inspect live sessions (search, select and end sessions). BUILT FOR NETWORK PEOPLE A clean interface designed for real admin work. Biometric app lock (Face ID / Touch ID). Secure connections with certificate pinning. Multiple FortiGates, synced across your devices via iCloud Keychain. PRIVACY Your FortiGate tokens and passwords stay on your device (in the iOS Keychain) and are never sent to us. No ads, no tracking, nothing sold. Push alerts are delivered through a stateless relay that stores no data. NetGo is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Fortinet, Inc. FortiGate is a trademark of Fortinet, Inc.

Neko is a cozy proxy client for iPhone and iPad. Point it at the subscription or nodes you already have, and it turns them into a one-tap tunnel — wrapped in an interface you will actually enjoy opening. BRING YOUR OWN CONFIGURATION Neko is a client, not a service. It does not include, sell or provide proxy servers, subscriptions or bandwidth. You supply a subscription URL, or paste node links from a provider you trust — or from a server you run yourself. THE CAT IS THE STATUS No status bars to decipher. Neko's mascot mirrors your tunnel: curled up asleep when you are disconnected, ears perked while connecting, bright-eyed and blushing once you are protected, and zooming when traffic is really flying. FEATURES • One-tap connect — tap the button, or just tap the cat • Sniff — measure real latency for every node before you commit • Auto or manual — let the fastest node be picked for you, or choose it yourself • Feeds — keep several subscriptions and switch between them instantly • Routing modes — Smart Paw (rule-based), Roam Free (global) or Stay Home (direct) • Paw Prints — a live, readable log of what the engine is doing • Sakura light and Midnight dark themes, designed to match • Purr haptics and a little meow when you connect, both optional PROTOCOLS Shadowsocks, VMess, Trojan, VLESS and Hysteria2. IMPORT FORMATS Subscription URLs returning base64-encoded link lists or plain link lists, YAML configuration files in the widely used mihomo format, and individual node links pasted straight from your clipboard. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking of any kind. Your subscriptions, nodes and settings are stored only on your device, and Neko never sees your traffic — it runs entirely on your iPhone or iPad and connects only to the servers you configure. BUILT ON A FAST, OPEN CORE Neko is powered by meow-rs, an open-source proxy engine written in Rust and distributed under the MIT licence. It is compact and efficient enough to run comfortably inside an iOS network extension. PLEASE NOTE Neko requires your own proxy configuration to be useful — it ships with no servers and no free trial of any network service. You are responsible for using it in line with the laws that apply to you and with the terms of whichever provider you choose.
