I’m a solo dev and I got tired of not having a good iOS app to manage my self-hosted media stack, so I built one.

Quartermaster connects to Radarr, Sonarr, SABnzbd, NZBGet, qBittorrent, Jellyseerr, Overseerr, Jellyfin, Emby, Lidarr, Prowlarr and Bazarr. Manage your library, approve requests, watch your download queues, see active streams — from your phone.

The part I care about most: it’s pure client-side. No backend, no analytics, no accounts. Your server credentials are stored on-device in the iOS Secure Enclave and the app only ever talks to the servers you point it at. Nothing leaves your phone.

It’s in TestFlight beta now and I’m looking for testers — especially if you run qBittorrent or a less common setup. Free to test.

More detail and how to apply: https://qmstack.com/

Happy to answer anything about how it works.

    It’s free to test, and nobody’s obligated to anything, it’s entirely down to people who actually want to. Beta testers get the full app and all the Pro features for free, during the beta and after as a thank you. That’s just how beta testing works, people who run this stack and are curious get early access and help shape it, and they get the paid product for nothing in return.

    Calling that a job advert is a stretch. It’s an optional beta with a free product attached, not unpaid labour. If it’s not for you, no worries, just scroll past

        Self-Hosted isn’t a job board, though. If you’re going to post job listings, there are better places to do that.

          • Do c/selfhosted members run the *arr stack? Yes, probably the vast majority of them.
          • Does OP have a product that integrates with the *arr stack? Yes.
          • Is OP asking you to buy his product. No. He’s asking you, if you are interested, to beta test a product, and in the end your reward is to keep the product you helped beta test.

          This is not an outlandish or usual scenario.

            to freely test his product he then intends to sell.

            thats free labour. charge for your product? pay your testers. pretty damn simple.

              It’s not free labor FFS! You get to keep the product. YOU ARE BEING PAID!

              My friend, the tester keeps the app afterwards

              If the tester doesn’t agree with it, then by all means, don’t become a tester :D
