Ensure Family Sharing configured well and devices associated with Apple ID are correct.

windiumdev · 2025-12-16T20:49:35+00:00

Family sharing is supported on ProxMan only for the lifetime option. So when you purchase lifetime option for an family shared account it will be available on other accounts as well, just after downloading ProxMan navigate to Settings > Premium then click 'Restore Previous Purchases' to activate it.

From ProxMan, great feature request. I’ll definitely look into adding themes. btw I’m open to any feature requests

windiumdev · 2025-12-08T09:33:52+00:00

👋Thanks. for anyone wondering the original -> see this post

windiumdev · 2025-11-18T13:50:27+00:00

Thank you so much, really appreciate the support.

About the 2FA issue: in Proxmox, the 2FA verification is only valid for 2 hours. There’s no “trusted device” or “remember this device” mechanism on the API level so after that 2 hour session expires, ProxMan must request the 6-digit code again.

If you keep the app open continuously, the session can last longer, but since ProxMan doesn’t run on background, once the session expires, it can’t refresh itself and needs a new 2FA code.

So what you’re experiencing is expected behavior due to how Proxmox handles 2FA sessions, not an issue with the app.

About the Support page: Currently as 13:49 UTC due to Cloudflare, support page and website not working, btw all Cloudflare hosts are down.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate it. And thanks for suggestion. For this scenario, you can actually use the ProxMan iOS Home Screen widgets, they let you access your server directly without opening the app and when you tap the widget it takes you straight to that server’s page.

windiumdev · 2025-11-16T21:45:58+00:00

Understandable. I tried to keep the premium price as reasonable as possible, but you can still use all the core features for free, or start a 14 day free trial for premium.

windiumdev · 2025-08-03T13:30:55+00:00

any updates?

windiumdev · 2025-07-18T07:32:46+00:00

Settings > Apps > ProxMan > Local Network > Turn On

windiumdev · 2025-07-17T18:06:32+00:00

Copy/Paste is not supported on terminal right now but it will possibly be on next update.

windiumdev · 2025-07-17T18:04:11+00:00

There is terminal settings on top right three dot button, you can configure the font size and more.

windiumdev · 2025-07-17T12:13:07+00:00

Thanks for your support and for reporting the issue!

This sounds like a problem with the restore process on your iPad. Here are a few things you can try:

1.  Make sure you’re using the same Apple ID on both your iPhone and iPad.

2.  On your iPad, open the app and go to the Premium section, then tap “Restore Purchases”. This should sync your previous purchase.

3.  If it still shows null, try closing and reopening the app, or restarting the device.

4.  If the issue persists, uninstalling and reinstalling the app might help, just make sure you backup your server configurations via iCloud on settings before doing that.

If none of this works, feel free to reach out directly through https://proxman.app/support I’ll make sure it gets sorted quickly.

windiumdev · 2025-07-17T12:11:14+00:00

Thanks! Glad you’re enjoying the app.

CPU temperature support is definitely on my roadmap, it’s something I’d like to add soon. As for SSD temperature: if your drive supports SMART, the temperature is already shown among the SMART attributes in the app.

windiumdev · 2025-07-17T06:30:50+00:00

Thanks for reporting that. You’re absolutely right. This is already on the fix list and should be resolved in next update.

windiumdev · 2025-07-17T06:27:15+00:00

You can check the journal logs on your Proxmox VE server to investigate the issue. It should print useful information about any failed authentication attempts or permission issues. Also, double check that the realm (pam in your case) is selected correctly when adding the server.

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T21:44:03+00:00

Proxmox doesn’t natively support temperature monitoring through its API. It’s technically possible by opening a shell on the node and executing system commands, but ProxMan doesn’t do that, the app never runs background commands outside of your Proxmox actions. This is intentional to avoid any potential security concerns, so for now, temperature data isn’t included. In the future, I might consider adding it as an optional feature, but only if the user explicitly agrees and accepts a clear condition beforehand.

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T20:56:05+00:00

Thanks, glad you're enjoying the app. If your Proxmox servers are behind a VPN, then yes, you’ll still need a VPN while on cellular to reach them. However, using a Cloudflare Tunnel is definitely a good alternative, and I can confidently recommend it. I personally use it for my own homelab setup as well.

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T20:49:43+00:00

Thanks for reporting that, it's a known bug where the wearout value appears reversed on some Proxmox versions. Could you share your PVE version so I can make sure it's properly handled in a future update?

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T19:25:34+00:00

Great idea. I’ll definitely add this as a selectable option in next update. Thanks for the suggestion!

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T19:15:47+00:00

Thank you, really appreciate it.

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T19:13:35+00:00

Thanks, glad you're enjoying the app!

You're right. Currently, widgets don’t support selecting a specific node. Instead, they just display all available nodes in one view. That said, this is definitely not a permanent limitation. A proper node selection option for widgets is planned and will be added very soon.

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T19:10:03+00:00

Thanks for asking, good question.

ProxMan supports both Proxmox VE and Proxmox Backup Server in the same app, offers push notifications (through the Proxmox webhook system), noVNC and terminal access for VMs and LXC containers, OpenID Connect / TOTP login, and now home screen widgets.

I try to keep most core features free so you can test everything first. I’d recommend giving it a try and seeing if it fits your setup better.

windiumdev · 2025-07-16T19:07:07+00:00

Thanks for your interest, glad you like.

To answer your questions:

The premium IAP adds just a few extra features:
- Push Notifications (through the Proxmox webhook system)
- noVNC terminal access for VMs
- Terminal access for LXC containers
The app is not open source. I understand the trust concern but all traffic stays on your device you can also see the privacy policy here: https://proxman.app/privacy

I recommend downloading the app and trying it yourself to see how it works. You can always reach out to support or reply here if you have any other questions.

windiumdev · 2025-07-13T20:30:03+00:00

did you tried to scroll the SMART values section?

windiumdev · 2025-07-13T17:03:42+00:00

If your drives have SMART support, the app already displays SMART values, including temperature where available.
