[Showcase] HestiaCP Monitor: A Secure Native Android App for your Servers

Community Support General Questions

Hi everyone!

We are excited to share with the community a project we’ve been working on: HestiaCP Monitor.

Managing HestiaCP servers while on the move can be a challenge. Our goal was to create a lightweight, fast, and secure native Android application that gives you full control without needing to open a terminal or a desktop browser.

:rocket: What it does:

  • Live Stats: Monitor CPU, RAM, and Load Averages.

  • Service Control: View status and restart core services (Nginx, PHP, MySQL, etc.).

  • Web & Mail Management: Quick overview of your domains, disk usage, and SSL status.

  • Security First: Biometric unlock (Fingerprint/PIN) and TOTP-based cryptographic signing for all API requests.

:shield: How it works (The 2-Part Setup):

To ensure maximum security and avoid exposing your root passwords, the solution requires two components:

  1. The API Addon (Server-side Bridge): A secure, lightweight PHP bridge that you install on your HestiaCP server. It handles signed requests and executes only allowed commands. :backhand_index_pointing_right: Repo: https://github.com/jampwebsolutions/hestiacp-api-addon

  2. The Android App: The native Flutter application that connects to the bridge. :backhand_index_pointing_right: Repo: https://github.com/jampwebsolutions/hestiacp_monitor

:package: Getting Started:

  1. Clone and run the install.sh from the API Addon repo on your server.

  2. Download the latest APK from the Android App releases page.

  3. Use the generated URL and Secret Key to connect.

Hi all,

Thank you for the warm welcome and for fixing the link!

Regarding the screenshots, you are absolutely right. I have just added a new image to the main post (and a few to the GitHub README) so everyone can see the interface in action.

I’ve focused on keeping the UI clean and informative, showing the Stats, Services, and Domain management tabs.

Let me know if you have any more suggestions!
