KumaAlert - Uptime Kuma in your pocket
KumaAlert is a native app for keeping an eye on your Uptime Kuma servers from your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. It stays quiet until something needs you, then makes sure you know. Connect one server or a dozen, see everything at a glance, and get alerted the moment a monitor goes down. When something breaks, you can acknowledge or snooze it right from the notification, a widget, your watch, or the app.
Know the moment something breaks
• Push alerts when a monitor goes down, and again when it recovers, with how long it was out
• Set each monitor to Info, Warning, or Critical. Critical alerts can break through silent mode and repeat until you acknowledge them
• A per-monitor alert delay so brief blips don't wake you
• Send a real test alert to check your sounds and settings work
Handle outages anywhere
• An Incidents tab with active outages pinned up top, live downtime timers, and Acknowledge and Snooze on each
• Downtime totals, mean time to recovery, and your flakiest monitor across 7, 30, or 90 days
• Live Activities that put an ongoing outage on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
• A full Apple Watch app that works even with your iPhone off, with complications for your watch face
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets that surface only what's down when it matters
Built for real infrastructure
• Drag to arrange monitors and move them between folders, with changes synced back to Uptime Kuma itself
• One-tap push setup, where KumaAlert creates the alert webhook for you
• Maintenance windows, Kiosk mode for a wall-mounted iPad, Siri, and Shortcuts
• iPad-native layout, plus Sign in with Apple and end-to-end encrypted sync so the server only ever sees ciphertext
One-time purchase. No subscriptions. No tracking.
Requires a self-hosted Uptime Kuma server.
I always thought the uptime Lima app was a bit basic. Thankfully this app fixes that and then some. Definitely worth getting 👍
Needs improvement
Scott👨💻
I appreciate this app is a one time cost and not a subscription, but there are some issues that prevent me from recommending it. The setup wizard has so many steps, yet misses critical ones like setting up the notifications/webhooks, API key, etc. It also initially did not work for me because I am using HTTP and not HTTPS. It kept saying HTTP connections weren't compatible and I had to email the developer to get help. Turns out you you have to include the port number (3001) and if you don't put the URL and port in a specific format (which they don't show in the example), it doesn't work. The app has good design but can is buggy. For example it started giving me live activities when something went down and I didn't like this so I disabled the feature in the app. However even after force quitting the app, it's still triggering live activities! I had to block it at the OS level. The filters also do not work well. If you are on the home screen and tap the section for "down" it takes you to the monitors list, but doesn't filter them by what's down. I really had high hopes for this app but it's just not there yet. I hope it can be improved.
Nice UI and Usability

The app is well made, the UI is very nice to use, and it is helping me keep track of my servers and apps. Kudos to the authors. In addition, they answer questions very quickly.
Decided to not work

It worked fine for a month and now decided it needs me to refresh the 2fa token and won’t accept it. My other app works fine with the token so I know everything is fine on my end.
This release is mostly speed and reliability.
• The lag is fixed. Overview, Monitors and Manage no longer redraw constantly under steady heartbeat traffic, and reordering monitors is smooth again.
• A lost connection is now visible. Overview shows an offline banner with a Retry button instead of claiming "live" over stale data.
• Fixes for database monitors, maintenance windows, two-factor servers and very large fleets.
• Incidents now opens on All servers rather than one.
• New: send a diagnostic report to support in one tap from Settings, Diagnostics, and get a short code to pass on.
• Signing in with Apple and with Google now lands on one account.
