0.3.0The iOS companion
On this page
What's new
- Wears your Mac's theme. With RoachNet 1.1, the companion picks up the theme you chose in Settings › Appearance on the Mac, light themes included. Turn it off under Connection › Appearance.
- The token stays off shared networks. It only travels over HTTPS, inside a tailnet (Tailscale addresses and
*.ts.netnames), or to this device. Plainhttp://toRoachNet, a.localname or a Wi-Fi address is refused with a note that says why. TheRoachNetalias still works in the Simulator on the Mac it points at. - Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode before Org decisions, changing the token, or forgetting the Mac.
- The RoachTail join code on the Runtime tab is hidden until you tap it.
- Bridge URLs with a path (
https://relay.example/roachnet) keep their path on every request. - An install the Mac refuses (a pack sent to 1.0.x, an unknown pack, a refused host) shows the Mac's reason instead of sitting in the offline queue. With RoachNet 1.1, theme and speech packs from RoachNet Apps install from the phone.
