Keel

A private, permission-aware mobile client for your TrueNAS server
New in version 1.1.0
Adds a demo mode: tap "Try a demo server" on the first screen to explore Keel with sample data and no network.
Keel is a mobile client for TrueNAS Community Edition (SCALE). Check your server's health, manage apps, run backups and handle alerts from your phone, without exposing anything to the internet.

What it does

  • Live dashboard with CPU, memory, network and pool health

  • Apps: live usage, start, stop, redeploy, upgrade with changelog, roll back, edit configuration, container logs

  • Storage: pools, datasets, snapshots, scrubs, and snapshot, replication and cloud sync tasks

  • Alerts with optional background notifications

  • Services, updates, reporting graphs, boot environments, network and audit log

  • VMs, LXC containers, SMB and NFS shares, users

  • Several servers, with a home screen widget for alert counts



Want to look around first? Tap "Try a demo server" to explore every screen with sample data, no server needed.

Built for security

  • Signs in with SCRAM-SHA-512, so your API key never crosses the network

  • Stores only derived keys, encrypted in the Android Keystore behind your fingerprint or PIN

  • Pins self-signed certificates and refuses public addresses unless you opt in

  • Only shows the actions your API key's roles allow, with stricter confirmation for riskier ones

  • No analytics, ads, crash reporting or Google services. It talks only to your server.

    Permissions

      Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.
    • have full network access
      Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet.
