Update 3/26:They’ve already added push notifications based on specified layers and progress. This is absolutely the app to get.I’ve been using Octoclient for 2 years and paid for pro. I just found this app because I’ve been disappointed with what octoclient had to offer. This app is so much better. With push messages, watch app, and gcode it’s really nice. Only one thing is missing to make this perfect and that’s a visual gcode viewer like Octoprint offers on their UI. If that could be added this app would be close to perfect. Perfect would be the ability to send a custom push notification based on what layer the print is on.
Developer Response
Thanks for this nice review!!! In the coming release I added the ability to track the current layer. I now opened this ticket https://github.com/gdombiak/OctoPrint-OctoPod/issues/37 for your great idea of being notified when reaching certain layers. Thanks
Great app with potential.
Project-Ed
After many many attempts to use the official obico app to monitor my setup I gave in and tried this app. It uses obico as one of many ways to connect and it worked right out of the box. I love the widget as well. Sure this app looks bland in comparison but I’ll take a fully functioning app over looks any day. If they separate the app into modules then the community can write new ui themes and this app would be perfect. Besides looks only other thing I would say is add support for emergency stop. Yes there is a cancel button but having a big e-stop option would be great esp on the widget.
Developer Response
That’s a great new idea having an emergency stop. Would you mind creating a GitHub issue for it? Thanks for the great feedback and review.
Awesome tool if you’re using OctoPrint

I’ve had an OctoPi (Raspberry Pi running OctoPrint & connected to my 3D printer) for well over a year and I only regret not having this app sooner. Being able to monitor and manage my prints easily and natively on a phone (or an Apple TV!) is something I’ve wanted for a long time. I actually found this app because I was looking for a way to get notifications and if that’s the only thing you need, this app has all of that, for anything you could want notifications for. Love it!
Fantastic tool for monitoring 3D printing!

I’ve only been 3D printing for about 4 weeks, but this app has made monitoring so much easier. I like being able to view the webcam and see my print status while away from the printer. Intuitive to use with a good amount of detail like temperature, print completion status ( % and time ) , layer height, full screen webcam and custom command. The only thing missing for me is the capability to see my time lapse or octolapse videos. Please consider adding in a future update! Thanks for all your work in simplifying my 3D life!
IMPROVED: Added support for PrintTimeGenius plugin. Progress notifications will report correct progress
