Ruddarr
Software Controller
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Ruddarr is a beautifully designed, open source, privacy-first companion app for Radarr and Sonarr instances. Manage your movies, documentaries and TV series from anywhere, anytime.
Features:
• Manage movies and TV series
• Browse upcoming releases in the calendar
• Receive fine-grained notifications
• View activity queue tasks and history events
• Switch between multiple instances
• Customize the app color scheme and appearance
• Synchronize settings/instances between devices (iCloud)
• Automate actions using Siri Shortcuts
• Connect to reverse proxies using custom HTTP headers
• Use Spotlight search to quickly jump to media
• Fully localized, ready to be translated
Notifications require a subscription to Ruddarr+, because sending push notifications to devices requires reliable server infrastructure, which incurs monthly operating expenses for this free, open-source project. Alternatively, *arrs come with many notification integrations that can be self-hosted.
Requirements:
• Ruddarr does not provide any media and requires a Radarr or Sonarr instance to interact with.
