Access your PRTG Installation with your
iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch
iPRTG is an app for iOS based devices which makes it possible to monitor your network while you are travelling.
If you are using PRTG Network Monitor from Paessler, all you need is an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch and the iPRTG application to check your network performance from anywhere. The mobile network monitoring application iPRTG requests the monitoring data directly from your PRTG server and displays it in a format specially developed for your smartphone.

iPRTG connects to your PRTG server and displays the following information:
- Status Bar: The current sensor stats are always shown at the top (e.g. how many sensors are down, up, paused, etc.)
- Home Screen: Shows your favorite sensors and their current state—simply tap an item and get in-depth information
- Devices: Displays the "sensor tree" with groups and devices; you can navigate through the tree
- Sensors: Gives you various sensor lists of your PRTG configuration (fastest/slowest ping, highest/lowest bandwidth, and many more)
- Alarms: Shows all sensors that are currently in an alarm state (unusual, warning, down)
