I built an iOS app for Cloudflare because I don't have a laptop around 24/7

Hey 👋

I've been working on this app for a little over a year now and I have not marketed it at all in the past but I think it reached a good state and I am actually looking for feedback and features that people might be interested in.

I have a very minimal website with some illustrations (ofc, hosted on Cloudflare): https://kintoun.app

First of all, the app is read-only, that was my initial decision as I was the one using the app and I didn't feel the need to make changes to my account/zones from a phone. I don't think I'll introduce write perms anytime soon but I might consider it in case it's something heavily requested.

The app is pretty simple: home screen shows you all the ongoing incidents and your accounts. You can take a look in detail to ongoing and past incidents, reliability in the past 14 days and some other stats derived from the incident history.

For each account you can take a look at zones, tunnels, workers & pages and billing.

And last but not least, for each zone you can take a look at the difference resources: DNS, Analytics, DNSSEC, Security Events etc. I've recently added widgets with account/zone scope and an incident widget as well, although I still have to update the App Store with those screenshots.

Have I mentioned that it's 100% powered by the Cloudflare APIs? I don't have a backend for this app, and I am not exchanging anything with anyone. Everything runs locally in the app.

For expert users I have added a network logger in the app so you can clearly see the API calls that the app makes and what it is getting back, including headers, status and all that you may find useful to debug why something is not working as expected.

The most difficult thing for me right now is trying to find a common ground for all the tiers, as I have designed the app mostly for my use cases but I only have an ENT account and a FREE account, therefore some people having PRO/BIZ subs may find some permission issues (maybe?). That's why I'm looking for people's feedback!

I think, so far, it's the most feature rich app for Cloudflare in the App Store and it satisfies my needs. If you have any suggestions, improvements or questions in general feel free to reach out! I'm still trying to figure out what's the best place to get this feedback or have a chat but this comment section will do for now.
