Hey everyone,
About a month ago, I shared the Android release of my LuCI Mobile app, and the response was incredible! I got a ton of great feedback and one request that came up over and over: "When is the iOS version coming?"
Well, today's the day! The iOS and iPad version is officially live on the App Store!
A Quick Word on Pricing
After getting a lot of input from you all, I've decided to price the Apple app at a one-time purchase of $9.99. Here’s the transparent breakdown: this price helps cover Apple's yearly developer fee based on the interest shown so far. If the app does better than expected, it directly translates into more time I can dedicate to building out new features for everyone. Thank you to everyone who weighed in on this!
For all my Android users, don't worry! The Android app is still free and will always be free. If you'd still like to support the project, I've set up a GitHub Sponsors profile here. Any contribution is hugely appreciated!
What's New? (Recent Updates from Beta Feedback)
I've been busy squashing bugs and adding features based on what you told me. Here’s what’s new since the first release:
- Multi-Router Support is here! You can now add all your routers and switch between them seamlessly.
- Quick Info Access: Just long-press any interface on the Dashboard to bring up its detailed info screen.
- Better Reboot Flow: The UX for rebooting your router is now much smoother and more intuitive.
- Under-the-hood Overhaul: I did a major code refactor and improved state management, which means the app is now significantly more stable, faster, and visually consistent.
The Road Ahead (My Feature Roadmap)
Here are some of the top things I'm planning to work on next:
- Unified Clients View: Imagine seeing all connected clients from your main router and your dumb APs on a single screen. That's the goal.
- Dashboard Customization: You'll be able to pick and choose which interfaces show up and which ones you want to see real-time throughput for.
- Deeper System Info: Access to system logs, running processes, and more geeky data.
- Interface Control: The ability to start, stop, or restart interfaces directly from the app. This one's tricky as it requires extra SSH permissions on the router, so I'm figuring out how to implement it without sacrificing the app's simplicity.
I'm super excited to finally get this into your hands. Let me know what you think, and please keep the feedback and feature ideas coming!
