✔ Secured Access
Connect to your server via SSH and query standard linux procfs to retrieve system stats, with all your passwords securely stored in your iPhones keychain.

✔ Load & Memory Gauge
Display the most vital stats of your server in a gauge. The 5 minutes load average is displayed in the center, while the outer needle shows the memory usage percentage.

✔ Built-in Mini Terminal *
The built-in mini terminal allows you to run custom commands anytime. Ever wish you could run ps ax | grep thin? you can do it right within Server Remote.

✔ Multiple Servers
You can monitor more than one server in one screen, allowing you to have a birds eye view on all your servers, anywhere, anytime.
