Below are some applications for Android & iOS which allow us to easily monitor and manage our Raspberry Pi.
Now it’s even possible to manage files, control the GPIO pins, send commands directly through the terminal, view images from a connected camera, and obtain data from different sensors.
1. Raspberry Pi Monitor
Features
- Dark mode
- Zero setup
- Nothing will be installed on your raspberry pi
- CPU frequency
- CPU temperature
- CPU Utilization
- Load
2. RaspController
RaspController is the one that I am personally using for monitoring my Raspberry Pis. I have also installed a PiVPN in my home network so that I can access my Pis from outside my home network too.
Features
- GPIO management (On/Off or impulsive function)
- File manager (Explore the content of Raspberry PI, copy, paste, delete, download and visualize properties of files, text editor)
- Shell SSH (Send custom commands to your Raspberry PI)
- Cpu, Ram, Storage, Network monitoring
- Camera (Shows images of the camera connected to the Raspberry PI)
- Custom user widgets
- Process list
- Support for DHT11/22 sensors (Humidity and temperature)
- Support for DS18B20 sensors (Temperature)
- Support for BMP sensors (Pressure, temperature, altitude)
- Support for Sense Hat
- Info Raspberry PI (Read all the information of the connected device)
- Pinout and diagrams
- Wake On Lan (Use Raspberry PI to send “WakeOnLan” magic packets)
- Shutdown
- Reboot
3. RasPi Check
Features
- Monitor status like overclocking information (frequency, temperature, volts) and more system information (free memory, runtime, disk status.
- Restart or halt your Raspberry Pi.
- Homescreen widget.
4. RaspiManager
Features
- SSH Scripts (and you´re able to save and load them)
- Monitoring using RPi-Monitoring (automated installation)
