Ratings and reviews

Great app for checking in on your printer when you can't physically see it. I have smoke and fire protection specifically for my printer, but I still don't like to leave it running unattended. So, when I have to step away for a few minutes, I use OctoRemote. I mainly use it for the webcam function, but it's also nice to have access to the entire OctoPrint API. The app is stable, laid out well, works great on my OnePlus 7T, and is maintained frequently. Recommended!

This is a very good (free) remote monitoring tool for OctoPi. There are some additional features that would be beneficial to have for instance showing the current layer number (Telling me the file size complete/file size total literally tells me nothing when I am away from the printer). I have 2 3dPrinters that I use with OctoRemote Ender 3V2 and Voxelab Aquila X2. Both work flawlessly with OctoRemote. After using free versions of commercial products (Spaghetti & AstroPrint) this is by far the easiest to deploy and use. Most features those commercial products offer can be accomplished with a plugin either in OctoPrint or your fave slicer. Make no doubt this is the best remote monitoring tool for OctoPrint.

I don't usually review apps, but this one is really good. With how unstable octoprint can be, it's surprising how reliable this 3rd party application is. Specially considering there is no plugin needed to work. I only wish the app could access and work plugins like bed levelling, but this would go beyond the scope of what I expected from this app. Nice work.
