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.

Lama Client
Read full descriptionHide full description
Lama Client is a VPN client for your own access keys. Add one key or several, and the llama keeps the connection going. IMPORTANT: you need an access key from your provider โ a vless://, vmess://, trojan:// or ss:// link, or a subscription URL. The app does not sell or provide VPN servers. SEVERAL KEYS, ONE QUEUE Keys from different providers live in one list, in the order you choose. Turn on Autopilot, and if the active key drops or the internet stops working through it, the llama connects the next one. You don't have to tap anything. AUTOPILOT โข Turns the VPN on by itself on unfamiliar Wi-Fi and on cellular โข Trusted networks: no VPN at home or at work โข Regularly checks that the connection through the key is alive, and switches keys if it isn't EASY TO ADD A KEY Paste a link from the clipboard, scan a QR code, or load every key from your provider's subscription. Each key shows its latency, and the list can be sorted by speed. Keep a note on a key โ for example, when it expires. ROUTES Pick sites that should open directly, outside the VPN โ your bank, for example. Or the other way round: send only selected sites through the key. THE LLAMA The llama dozes while the VPN is off and stands guard once you're connected. A Home Screen widget turns the VPN on and off without opening the app, and a Live Activity shows the status on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. PRIVACY โข No account, no registration, no ads โข No analytics or third-party trackers โข Keys are stored in the iPhone's encrypted Keychain and never leave the device โข We run no servers of our own: traffic goes to your provider's server Protocols: VLESS, VMess, Trojan, Shadowsocks; TLS and Reality; TCP, WebSocket, gRPC, HTTP/2, HTTPUpgrade and XHTTP transports. The connection uses Apple's system VPN mechanism. On first connection iOS asks permission to add a VPN configuration. Requires an iPhone with iOS 17 or later.
