Uapp Version 4 Android App
Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2026 12:18 pm
Hi everyone,
The Android Uapp is officially on the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... angel.uapp
It is the same Uapp as the web version, with a few extras the browser cannot do.
Local Connect
On Android you can check Local Connect, enter your controller IP (for example 192.168.1.50, port 2000), and control it on your home Wi‑Fi. No cloud or forum login is required for day-to-day local control. Phone and controller just need to be on the same network.
Wizard, alerts, and other features
To use the wizard (compile), alerts, labels, and calendar, link your forum account so the app can get a secure token. Go to Settings → Controllers, swipe the local controller, and tap the login icon to Link Forum Account. Use the same Reef Angel ID as the controller. You can also enter forum credentials when you first add the controller, or link later.
WiFi firmware upload (Star)
You can compile and stage firmware like Remote Upload, then tell the Star on your LAN to pull it. No USB cable or desktop plugin. If the router gives the controller a new IP, use Edit IP or Save address.
USB upload, serial monitor, and file compare stay on the web/desktop plugin. On Android use WiFi Upload or Remote Upload instead.
Install it, add your controller with Local Connect, and you are in. Feedback and bug reports are welcome.
