ServerWatch: Server Monitoring for macOS & iOS

Your Server. Always Monitored.

ServerWatch is a native SwiftUI app for macOS and iOS. The public product page lists the current state as Coming Soon, version v1.2.0. A free version for one server is planned; it is not a stripped-down demo. It supports macOS 14+ and iOS 17+.

Ready in 3 minutes

No agent, no daemon, no root: one PHP file is enough.

Upload the PHP file: Upload server-monitor-api.php to the web server.
Set the API key: Open the file and enter a personal API key.
Configure the app: Enter the server URL and API key in ServerWatch.
Done: The dashboard automatically loads the first metrics.

The script reads metrics directly from /proc/; no additional database is required.
