Proxmox Backup Server Manager
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
The native Proxmox Backup Server client for iOS. Datastores, snapshots, and jobs always with you – with built-in AI assistant and Home Screen Widget.
PVE-BackupServer is the native client for Proxmox Backup Server. Monitor datastores, snapshots, and jobs directly from the app — whether at home on your LAN or remotely via VPN.
DASHBOARD
All key metrics at a glance: CPU usage, memory, uptime, and PBS version. Always know how your backup server is performing.
DATASTORES
Overview of all datastores with current usage, used and available storage. Namespace support for structured backup organization.
SNAPSHOTS & BACKUP GROUPS
All backups with hostname, type, and date at a glance. Groups with readable names, verify individual snapshots or delete them selectively.
JOBS
Backup jobs and prune jobs at a glance. Status of the last run, next scheduled execution, and direct execution from within the app.
TASK LOGS
Full logs of running and completed tasks in real time. Spot errors immediately without SSH or the web interface.
DISKS & SMART
Overview of all disks with model, type, size, health status (PASSED/FAILED), wearout, and temperature. React to failures early.
AI ASSISTANT
Built-in AI assistant with support for Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), and local LLMs (OpenAI-compatible). Ask questions about your PBS environment, trigger jobs or verify datastores — all by voice or text.
Critical actions (start backup, verify, garbage collection) are always protected by a confirmation prompt.
PUSH NOTIFICATIONS
Get notified about failed backup jobs and completed tasks — always up to date without opening the app.
HOME SCREEN WIDGET
Shows the fill level of your datastores directly on the Home Screen — as a small or medium widget.
