Just curious, any plans to build a phone/ tablet app so one can check how their temps or whatnot are doing from their couch rather than going to their PC? 🙂

We will build a web based back end in the next release after 1.2, so you will be able to user a browser to access it. In the meantime, many use screen sharing software very successfully. Examples include TeamViewer, RDP, Chrome Remote Desktop, etc.

I personally use my iPad to access BruControl, which runs on a home network "server" computer.

Thanks for getting back! Yeah, I use Chrome Remote Desktop when downstairs, which works well. I have two monitors, so lots of scrolling around, but basically, I am just being lazy, hah. But the web-based back end sounds like a nice idea.

 

This is good to know too. Some members of my local homebrew club are moving to automation for brewing and/or fermentation, so I've been talking up Brucontrol over the Pi-based systems. This future feature will be good for me to share with them as well.
