A Completely New Native Login Experience

Logging into your cloud infrastructure should be fast, secure, and effortless. That's why we've completely rebuilt the login experience in the Webdock mobile app from the ground up.

Our new native authentication flow is designed specifically for iOS and Android, delivering a smoother experience while taking full advantage of each platform's built-in security features.

Faster, More Intuitive Login

The new login flow feels more responsive and natural, with native screens, improved navigation, and a streamlined authentication process. Whether you're signing in for the first time or returning to manage your infrastructure, getting into the app is now quicker than ever.

We've also refined the overall user experience, reducing unnecessary steps and making account access feel seamless across both platforms.

Built with Security at Its Core

Security has always been a top priority at Webdock, and our new native login experience reflects that.

Authentication tokens are securely stored using the iOS Keychain and Android Keystore, leveraging the security mechanisms built directly into each operating system. This helps protect your account while ensuring your login session remains both secure and convenient.

Behind the scenes, we've also improved session management and authentication handling, providing a more reliable and robust experience.

Latest updates in the app

The new login experience is part of a broader effort to make the entire Webdock app feel truly native.

Version 2.5.0 update notes:

• iOS home-screen widgets: four widgets:

  • a server status board with live status counts,

  • a small vitals widget showing CPU/RAM/disk for a server you pin,

  • a Lock Screen widget with running/total servers,

  • and a CPU history chart covering the last 12 hours.

• Live Activities: reboots and snapshot restores show live progress on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, so you don't have to keep the app open.

• Console / terminal improvements:

  • save your most-used commands: tap once to run

  • A redesigned key bar and toolbar with access to keyboard symbols

• Performance and stability improvements.

We also added the following in version 2.4.0:

• New AI assistant: rebuilt as a fast, fully native experience: saved conversations with history, suggested starter prompts, tappable quick-reply and follow-up buttons, and one tap to hand over to a human agent.

• Passkeys: passwordless sign-in with passkey management in Settings (add, rename, remove), plus an optional biometric app lock.

• Security setup guide: a one-time walkthrough after your first sign-in to turn on passkeys and app lock.

• Automatic updates: the app now keeps itself on the latest version.

• Fixes: real OS logos in the server list, GitHub sign-in errors, referral links, and light-mode readability.

By rebuilding core parts of the application using modern native technologies, we've improved responsiveness, reduced loading times, and created smoother transitions throughout the app. Combined with our redesigned AI Chat, notifications, server management, and dark mode support, the new login experience is another step toward making Webdock the easiest way to manage your infrastructure on the go.

More Improvements to Come

This release lays the foundation for future authentication features and continued improvements to the mobile experience.

We're continuously investing in the Webdock app to make it faster, more secure, and more intuitive—so you can spend less time managing infrastructure and more time building great products.

We’ve been busy behind the scenes making Webdock even snappier 😇

We’ve just rolled out new private interconnects in our POPs, giving us direct paths into some of the biggest networks out there:

• 400G Facebook (FRA14 / FRA5 / HAM1 / CPH1)

• 200G Google (FRA14 / FRA5)

• 100G Amazon (FR5)

• 100G Microsoft (FR5)

In plain English: this means shorter, cleaner, and more predictable routes between our network and major cloud and content providers. That can translate into lower latency, better consistency, less dependence on public transit paths, and generally smoother traffic flow for services that talk a lot with these platforms. In other words, fewer scenic detours for your packets.

And because we apparently don’t know how to sit still, we’ve also shipped a big API v1.1 update.

Highlights include:

• Fully implemented Custom Profiles in the API — you can now create custom profiles on the fly

• New ability to query platform variants and resource limits, especially handy for Custom Profiles

• Profile details now include a platform field, so you can see which hardware platform a profile belongs to

• The WebSSH Token endpoint now returns a fully qualified URL you can use directly

• Archived server snapshots can now be listed in GET /servers/snapshots

• You can now deploy Library Scripts by ID directly to a server

• You can also reference scripts by slug, which is a lot friendlier for humans and Terraform alike

• Added the ability to cancel scheduled deletion for a server

• You can now set the Web Root for a server, with optional webserver and Let’s Encrypt config updates

• Added support for setting Server Identity via the API, including removing the default Webdock alias domain

• You can now regenerate SSL certificates with Certbot for your main and alias domains

• Locations, Images, Platforms, and Profiles no longer require authentication, making them easier to query for discovery and automation use cases

All in all: faster roads, more knobs, more levers, more automation, and more fun for people who enjoy making infrastructure do clever things.

We’re excited to announce that our Webdock control panel has just received a major update. This release introduces a refreshed design, improved navigation, and several new features that make it easier and faster to manage your VPS servers.

In the coming period, we’ll continue optimizing and expanding the platform to better support your full workload — not just servers, but the surrounding services you rely on every day. We’re actively working on deeper integrations and new tooling around domains, DNS management, email services, and other complementary infrastructure features.

Planned improvements in the short run include:

• The server page — making it even easier and more efficient to use
