I was (and in a way am still) looking for some android frontend to manage my libvirtd LXC containers. Though this software does not yet support lxc:/// connections, it shows a lot of promise. Though the app is still unusable for me, I'm looking forward to what this app may bring in the future.

K70%
by K####:

Really don't like that it requires you to put your password in, and doesn't prompt. That is a huge security concern considering most people will be using the default libvirtd settings of requiring root to connect and use virsh.

I had tried to connect my cientos based virtual environment but not able to connect. Please help if you have some way...

S70%
by S####:

Clearly not maintained uses really old Android settings interface. Also didn't work showed 0 VMs

S70%

Thoroughly unusable on phones with no menu button.

Eh. Can't use port other than 22 but functional

S70%

There is no way to connect.

M70%
by M####:

Says "connect to start " and nothing else.

Y70%
by Y####:

I have used this app without problems on my Oneplus One. After my Oneplu One was stolen, I upgraded to a Oneplus 3. The Oneplus 3 is missing the hardware menu button which causes me to not be able to access the menu. This means the app needs a software menu button.

J70%
by J####:

This app appears to do what I need (manage multiple vms) but only shows "Connect to Start" without a way to actually connect to anything. I guess Ill try again later. Good luck!

Useless without ssh key authentication! Also, consider integrating VNC client. Do these two things and I'd even pay for it :-)

Y70%
by Y####:

No development in 5 years, its an abandoned project, if your ssh is other than port 22 there is no way to connect, can't test any further... Had it installed for almost a year as was hoping for updates as description states "under heavy development" but development seems dead

My phone is Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime. The app show "Connecting to server" screen but the lower buttons are out off screen.

Can not make a connection

doesn't even connect to kvm/libvirt server

Simple... but works

E70%
by E####:

Good idea, according to other comments it worked once. However, now it just connects, but doesn't show domains.

L70%

Doesn't support SSH keys.

My AVG anti virus detected as malware and recommended for uninstall. Not sure true or false alarm, but uninstalled.

Flagged as Malware by AVG.

list of running vms is empty.

Seems promising, but it is unable to show any domains on my personal host

Stuck at "Fetching data"

M70%
by M####:

Without support for non-standard SSH ports, SSH keys, multiple hosts, and lxc:// connections this tool becomes only useful for managing older systems on a home network and not in a full production environment. If the author tied into cobnectbot libs then that would solve a lot of issues.

K70%
by K####:

should have feature to submit private key instead of password

X70%
by X####:

It would be even better if it will support multiple servers (hosts) and more operations on guests (and some ops on hosts too).

Z70%
by Z####:

No key auth, useless app for me :(

X70%
by X####:

But when I downloaded the app I couldn't even configure it to connect to my KVM host... I run SSH on a custom port and that is the only way to connect to my machine... Would be REALLY awesome if the dev would add the ability to specify the port to connect to. Even better, add support for SSH key authentication and I'll give you 5 stars!!!

H70%
by H####:

It connects to the server but has never worked at showing any domains, all are KVM qemu guests, maybe Arch linuxs Libvirt version has been too new since the last app update, but very disappointing

K70%
by K####:

Pretty feature sparse at the moment, but the app does say it's under development, and lord knows that there are a ton of things you can do with KVM. Generally I'm pleased with the app. I would vastly prefer that it be short on features, but those features are rock solid, rather than it saying it had a bunch of features that don't work. For now, it's an excellent app that will give you information on your VMs, and allow you to start and stop the VMs

by K####:

When I first installed this I was browsing on my phone and didn't see the description. I was expecting something along the lines of VMware support which I don't use. As soon as I saw it was libvirt capable, I was very stoked. I can't fault this app at all to be honest. Having the ability to support multiple hosts would be great, although I see that this is already planned for the next release. Keep it up. Fantastic work

by Z####:

Multiple hosts and ssh key access needed - then a 5! Edit: something broke and I get no domains whereas virt-manager shows all 10.

X70%
by X####:

The only app to control KVM hosts but can only start/stop VMs. I'd really like to see more features, along the lines of virt-manager on Linux (e.g. Ubuntu) which allows editing VMs and console interaction.

Z70%
by Z####:

Looking at the comments and plans it looks like this is what I would love to use in the future. For I can't use it due to the lack of key support. Also being able to connect to more than 1 host is crucial.

A70%
by A####:

I really like this application, but I think it would be really useful if I could configure multiple hosts to connect to and manage. And then you could think about stuff like VM duplication and migration.

O70%
by O####:

I have been looking and hoping for a libvirt app. This is really great. Need to allow adding more than one server and get the migrate function in there.

P70%
by P####:

This is the only libvirt app I've found. I hope the author improves upon it. Great job.
