Wanted to say thank you for this app, works really well.

As a tip, I would add a note in the app UI when adding clients that client hosts may require a full system restart before populating.

I didn't test, it could be only the network stack that needs restarting, but TBH a system restart is simpler.

Just wanted to chime in and say thank you for making this app! Are there any plans for new features or releases? I've noticed a few crashes every now and then when pausing / starting clients.

Is there a version for Android?


If not, can somebody volunteer to port it?

No Android ... I actually made it once until the viewer on Android with OpenGL but my lack of experience and willingness to learn Android just stopped me to finish the whole thing. Porting will not be possible as the code is really iOS specific and not really made for portability.

I am no expert but I would imagine there are wrappers for deploying nearly unmodified iOS/Swift projects to Android, albeit with a performance hit. Seeing as the features of your app don’t really require low latency/high performance, there may be a nearly plug and play solution, if you’re at all interested in picking it back up.

I’m a iOS user, so I would not be able to test.

Would you please make some CLUE in the FAHMM app as to what is going on when you are trying to connect the mobile app to an FAH client?!?!? I just enter in some details in the mobile app, after trying to configure my computer client............... And then what??? Nothing happens. Did it try to connect to the computer? Did it not? Do I have control over telling it to start trying to connect???

WTF man, you make a useful piece of software and then make it nearly impossible for a new user to figure out how to get it started.

You might get better responses from members of the forum if you dial back the attitude a bit? … Most tools are developed by hobbyists/enthusiasts who have made them for their own benefit (and guess what - they know how they work) and shared them with other enthusiasts who would like to use them (and who are prepared to work with the originators to adapt them to their own circumstances).

I might suggest that if you want a fully featured, gold plated experience you could code up one yourself?

I heartily recommend a Remote Desktop app and a hfm.net running on a Windows pc. Or just RDP to the computer running the fahclient softwate.

What part are you stuck on?
idk where you're at in the process, but a few things need to be configured on the client before the app will connect.
Ensure you have remote access enabled in the settings.
•Take note of the port that's in use under Advanced Control > Configure > Connection (usually 36330)
Then under Advanced Control > Configure > Remote Access:
•Make up a password
•Ensure your local subnet AND 127.0.0.1 are entered into the "IP Address Restriction" box. i.e.

Code: Select all

192.168.0.0/24,127.0.0.1
Now enter those in the app:
•Client name - computer name, i.e. Folding-01, gaming_rig, etc.
•Hostname / IP - the IP Address or DNS name of the computer you're trying to control via the app
•Port: Enter the port you found earlier (again, usually 36330)
•Password - Enter the password you came up with earlier
•Active - Is the machine running the folding app right now? (just slide this to "yes / orange")
•Ignore pretty much everything else, unless you're using SSH keys.

Hope this helps

Just be careful with RDP and GPU folding since creating a RDP session to a system that's folding on the GPU will kill the GPU Slot... it's a Microsoft limitation.

Ok; after a longer break in folding and xcoding the app I have both up and running again ... took a while.
Good news: I still can compile the code and can try to work on some of the topics like UI, notch etc.
Bad news: I'm rather busy with my changed job

So please be a bit patient with me; but will try to make the app more sensitive on folder joining the cause in the recent time.

Thanks for your continued work on this app. I'm really finding it helpful in monitoring multiple folding systems. So I have a quick question...is the app capable of picking up a folding system on the same subnet, but a different wifi SSID? When I moved one of my systems to a repeater with a different wifi SSID on the same subnet because of a signal strength issue I can't seem to get that system to come up in the monitor app where it did before, when it was on the same wifi network. Thanks again!

That is nothing the app (or any app) could do. The app require that the respective folding clients can be reached. If you want/need multiple SSID you would need to establish the routing between both segments. Just having the same network number range will not do it. One possible way might be to cascade the WiFi router to connect the WAN slot of the second router (with different network range) to one LAN port of the first router. The second router via DCHP should pickup IP address from first router and become the connection between both segment. But that is rough and might not work and is sure beyond what I can support. Again: I’m not aware that I could even code anything to make that happen given multiple limitations in iOS.

Yeah...no worries...I'll do some work on my own network and see what I can come up with.
