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

I would not charge at all for beta access as this will help me build QM into something the community loves

I am not asking for participance

I appreciate you taking a look though! Cheers

I am looking for beta testers, this is 100% free

I am looking for beta testers :) The experience is 100% free

Thank you - I will honestly take this feedback onboard

Brother in Christ - have a day off

I do not understand why you are so pressed?

Looking at your comments on other posts, you seem like you’re a very pressed person, seek help

It’s a paid closed-source app, so no, the repo’s not public, same as most paid apps on the store. This community leans open source and that’s fair, but “not open source” and “AI slop” are two completely different accusations and you’re mashing them together.

Yeah, I used AI to help with the site, because I’m a sysadmin, not a marketer, I don’t know the first thing about landing pages and I’m not going to pretend I do. The app is a different story. I’ve been in IT 11 years. I run this exact stack myself, every day, and I built this because I was sick of bouncing between web UIs on my phone. The architecture is mine: pure client-side, credentials in the Secure Enclave, no backend, nothing in the middle touching anyone’s logins. The testing is mine too, I’ve spent entire nights debugging connection bugs that only ever show up on real hardware, a qBittorrent cookie issue and an ATS quirk that silently breaks Tailscale, the kind of thing no “vibe code” ever finds because it requires actually understanding the stack and testing it properly.

So by all means, don’t buy it if closed source is a dealbreaker, that’s a totally legitimate call. But “fuck off” and “shilling” aimed at someone who’s answered every single question here honestly says more about you than it does about the app. I’m happy to talk to anyone engaging in good faith. You’re clearly not.

LunaSea was brilliant but it’s been discontinued since April last year, the repo’s archived and it’s gone from the App Store. Mine’s a new native iOS app covering a lot of the same ground, and the main difference is it’s actively maintained, I’m here building and supporting it. Being straight though: LunaSea was free and open source and mine’s paid, so if free’s a dealbreaker there are community forks like Zagreus keeping that going. I’m going for a more polished native take with ongoing support :)

Fair question. A Safari shortcut just opens each service’s web UI one at a time. This pulls all your services into one native app, so you see downloads, requests, library and streams together, with proper iOS navigation, widgets, and stuff the web UIs don’t do well on a phone. If the web UIs work fine for you, that’s genuinely valid, this is for people who want one tidy native place for the whole stack :)

Yeah, I used AI to help build the site and write some of the copy, I’m a solo dev not a marketing team. The app itself is the part I’ve poured the work into. Fair cop on the site though

Thank you :) I am just trying to find footing in this space so the kind words really do help

Cheers! Yeah if you want to use it away from home you’d set up Tailscale (or a reverse proxy / VPN) first, but on your home network it just works with the local IP. No Tailscale needed if you’re on the same wifi.

In testing, I have setup my own WireGuard VPN and its working brilliantly :)

Helmarr’s genuinely good and more established than me, it covers more services right now, so if it does what you need it’s a solid pick. Mine’s newer and more focused. I’m a solo dev building it around feedback like this, so it’ll move fast. Honestly happy to be compared, competition’s good for everyone.

Damn, okay? It is the cheapest alternative to anything out there on iOS currently

Hey! Nope - this is not vibe coded - the app is not generic AI slop

It is built as a 1st party Apple app
