Network Tools vs KubeApp

A network engineer's toolkit that runs entirely on your iPhone. Seventeen tools, no account, no server of ours, and nothing about you collected. THE TOOLS • Ping — ICMP latency and packet loss, with a live chart • Traceroute — the hop-by-hop path, each router named • LAN scan — every device on your subnet, named and identified: routers, NAS boxes, printers, Macs, phones • Port scan — TCP connect scan with banners and service names, from a handful of ports to all 65535 • DNS — your own wire-format resolver: every record type at once, any public resolver you choose, DNS-over-HTTPS, reverse lookups, and a comparison mode that queries five resolvers and flags the one that disagrees • HTTP check — status, redirect chain, the DNS/connect/TLS/TTFB split, security headers • TLS — the full certificate chain, expiry, SANs, cipher suite, and whether the system trusts it • WHOIS — the referral chain followed to the registrar that actually holds the record • Wi-Fi — link quality graded against local thresholds, and a walking survey that compares rooms • Speed test — download, upload, latency and jitter, against Cloudflare or a URL you name • iperf3 — throughput against your own iperf3 server, up or down, multi-stream • IP calculator — CIDR maths, masks, host ranges, binary, and subnet division including VLSM • MAC lookup — 39,000 vendor prefixes, bundled and fully offline • Wake on LAN — the magic packet, sent to every address that might reach a sleeping machine • Network interfaces — addresses, subnets, flags and live throughput • Telnet — a raw TCP terminal for switches, PDUs and console servers • SSH — see below A REAL SSH CLIENT Not a wrapper. The protocol is implemented in Swift, and it does the things you actually need from a phone: • Jump hosts — reach a machine behind one bastion or several, each hop with its own account, its own credential and its own host key to confirm • Port forwarding — bind a local port to a service on the far side, then open it in a browser inside the app: a router's web interface, a database, a dashboard listening only on the server's loopback • scp — send a file up or pull one down, straight to the Files app • ssh-copy-id — put your public key in a server's authorized_keys without a second terminal • Keys — generate ed25519 on the device, or import ed25519, ECDSA and RSA in OpenSSH or PEM form, protected or not. Private keys live in the Keychain and can be exported under a passphrase when you need them elsewhere • Snippets — the commands you always type, one tap above the keyboard • A proper terminal — a real VT/xterm emulator, so vim and htop work, with esc, ctrl, alt, arrows and F-keys on a row of their own

KubeApp is the native Kubernetes client for iPhone and iPad. Manage your clusters fully from your iOS device — whether in your homelab, at the office, or remotely via VPN. DASHBOARD Cluster overview at a glance: node status, running pods, CPU and memory usage. Instantly see where your cluster needs attention. NODES All cluster nodes with status, load, and labels. Cordon, uncordon, and drain nodes directly from the app. PODS Complete pod list with namespace filter, status, and container details. Stream logs in real time, restart pods, or delete them selectively. DEPLOYMENTS & STATEFULSETS Deployments and StatefulSets with current and desired replica counts. Scale, rollout-restart, and detailed view included. SERVICES, CONFIG & NETWORK Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, and Ingresses at a glance. Cross-namespace search and direct detail view for all resources. STORAGE PersistentVolumes, PersistentVolumeClaims, and StorageClasses. Always know your storage usage. ACCESS CONTROL ServiceAccounts, Roles, ClusterRoles, and RoleBindings. Review permissions at a glance, without kubectl. CLUSTER EVENTS All Kubernetes events sorted by timestamp. Spot errors and warnings immediately. HELM Helm releases with chart version, status, and namespace. Manage releases directly from the app. ARGOCD ArgoCD applications with sync status and health state. Trigger sync and refresh directly from the app. FLUXCD Kustomizations, HelmReleases, and GitRepositories at a glance. Sync, suspend, and resume with a swipe. TERMINAL Integrated terminal directly inside a configurable pod. Full shell control over your cluster — without SSH-ing into a node. YAML APPLY Apply Kubernetes manifests directly from the app. Quickly create or update resources without a laptop. AI ASSISTANT Built-in AI assistant with support for Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), and local LLMs (OpenAI-compatible). Ask questions about your cluster, analyze resources, or trigger actions — by text or voice. Critical actions are always protected by a confirmation prompt. MULTI-CLUSTER Manage multiple clusters at the same time. Import kubeconfig directly in the app and switch between clusters instantly. SECURE & PRIVATE Credentials and API tokens are stored encrypted in the iOS Keychain. Supports self-signed certificates. No data is shared with third parties. COMPATIBILITY - Kubernetes 1.24+ - kubeconfig import (standard format) - Token authentication - Self-signed certificates - ArgoCD 2.x - FluxCD 2.x - Helm 3.x
