To manage your own infrastructure, yes: Aprox works with Proxmox VE 7.0 or newer and with Proxmox Backup Server. To try it first, open the built-in demo — a complete sample cluster and Backup Server that run entirely on your device. Try the demo.
Yes — that is the default for most homelabs. Aprox shows you the certificate's fingerprint once; after you confirm it, only that exact certificate is accepted. Learn more.
Both work, as do two-factor authentication and any realm your server offers. An API token with only the permissions you need is a good choice for everyday use; the console needs a password sign-in, because Proxmox does not accept API tokens for console sessions. Compare sign-in methods.
Aprox talks to your servers directly — no account, no telemetry, no relay server. On the free plan, occasional promotions are loaded without any advertising identifier or tracking; Aprox Pro removes them. Privacy details.
On the App Store, one purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac with the same Apple Account, and Family Sharing is supported. On Android, Aprox Pro is purchased through Google Play. About Aprox Pro.
