iPad app

LiMiT,  A client device could also use HTTPS so it would be encrypted if you wanted to.

Yeah, that could work but is pretty much the same thing as My Midnte EXCEPT that MM has to keep all of the data where the hole punch just acts as an in-between.

Still requires a non-cgnat server in the middle as I understand it.

It's all just a big pain in the butt as far as I'm concerned but I suppose something has to be done.

I have continued to do more reading on this topic of remote access through CGNAT and I think I am on the path of something.  WebRTC - basically designed to allow for P2P video and audio, but it does a channel for data only.  I will continue reading up on it.  If I get an opportunity, I may try to set up a stun and turn server and just check out the viability.  Won't be any time soon, but maybe I will get some down time.

Chris: Did you succeed in building an iOS app? The other one mentioned in the thread seems to have been abandoned. I used it, but then the 90 days ran out and then it shows that they are no longer accepting testers.

I did not realize that Midnite stopped development of the Local Status Panel. On their website there is another third party app, but it's for Windows. Nobody uses Windows anymore, that we know of. And then they have the My Midnite cloud service. But many off-grid people are not going to have the type of internet connection required to use that. We have controllers out in the utility room and we just want to be able to look at what they are doing from the house so it's more convenient.

Thanks for pointing out the monitoring app for iOS/iPadOS. Once I get it built and loaded on the iPad I believe this will meet the needs of what I was looking for.

Not sure exactly what you want to do , but if it is remote look at devices via internet without opening ports, take a look at Tailscale which works on all platforms. I recently started to use this for getting into a remote ham radio station. It should work once I get a few bugs worked out.
