Every tool you reach for. One app.

Stop juggling a dozen websites and sticky notes. Pocket Admin puts the everyday IT tools in one place.

Subnet calculator

Enter any IPv4 address and CIDR to get network, broadcast, mask, wildcard, host range and usable host count instantly.

TCP ping & port check

Check whether a host is reachable and a port is open, with connection timing, without leaving the help desk.

DNS lookup

Resolve the A (IPv4) and AAAA (IPv6) addresses for any host name, using your device’s DNS.

MAC vendor lookup

Identify a device manufacturer from its MAC address in seconds.

Runbooks & checklists

Step-by-step checklists for Okta, Active Directory, Jamf, onboarding, offboarding and laptop builds. Check items off as you go.

Ticket notes

Capture notes per ticket so the details are ready when it’s time to update the ticket or hand it off.

Canned replies

Save the replies you send every day. Variables like {name}, {ticket}, {me} and {date} are filled in as you copy.

Barcode, QR & serial scanner

Scan asset tags, serial numbers and QR codes with the camera and copy the result.

Private by design

No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Your data stays on your iPhone, with optional sync through your own private iCloud.

Wi‑Fi & device info

Local IPv4/IPv6 per interface, DNS servers, connection type, public IP, Wi‑Fi name, device model and iOS version, all on one shareable screen.

Serial & warranty helper

Clean up a typed or scanned serial, then jump to Apple, Dell, Lenovo or HP warranty pages, or search your Jamf Pro.

Admin quick reference

Searchable Okta paths, AD PowerShell, Jamf and MDM, macOS and Windows commands, plus ServiceNow and JSM tips. Tap to copy, star favorites.

Widgets, Siri & Shortcuts

Home Screen widgets for quick launch and runbook progress. “Check a port with Pocket Admin”, DNS lookups and canned replies from Siri and Shortcuts.

Runbooks that keep you consistent.

Onboarding, offboarding, laptop builds, Okta, Active Directory and Jamf: follow the same steps every time, check them off and never miss a step again.

Runbooks and checklists

Built for the help desk, the server room and the walk to the next desk.

Questions & answers

When is Pocket Admin available?

Pocket Admin IT is in TestFlight beta now and coming soon to the App Store for iPhone at $0.99, a one-time purchase. Check back here: the download button will light up on launch day.

Does Pocket Admin track me?

No. There are no accounts, ads, analytics or tracking. Your data stays on your iPhone, or in your own private iCloud if you turn on sync, and the developer never sees it. See the Privacy Policy.

Why does it need the camera?

Only for scanning barcodes, QR codes and serial numbers. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.

Who is it for?

Help desk technicians, desktop support, sysadmins and anyone who manages devices and accounts for a team.

Does it connect to Okta, AD or Jamf?

No. The runbooks are checklists that guide you through common tasks in those tools; Pocket Admin never signs in to them or touches your company’s systems.
