## Review summary

Overall: mixed. Users praise remote management of Unraid Docker containers and VMs from iPhone and the generally helpful support and UI. However, repeated issues dominate: bugs and crashes, Docker/VMs not showing, server-adding problems, and missing features like widgets and logs. Some updates regress functionality. The app is useful but reliability and feature parity with the web UI need work.

### Pros

- Remote management of Docker containers and VMs from iPhone (start/stop/restart)
- Handy for remote access and quick server checks
- Strong developer support and ongoing updates
- Clean UI design in recent updates (iPhone style)
- Solid Unraid stat viewer / general server monitoring

### Cons

- Frequent bugs and stability issues (crashes, white screens)
- Docker/VMs not showing up or not detected
- Cannot add or re-add servers / add button not working
- Missing essential features (widgets, logs, troubleshooting tools)
- Some updates remove features or regress functionality
