How to use our mobile web app

Throughout the app you can:

- access all of your seedboxes (if you own more than one)
- get your seedbox name, username, host name and current seedbox state. Active, Pending & Suspended,
- get the Disk space used as of your last app refresh and your plan's total per month limit,
- see the Traffic used as of your last app refresh and your plan's total per month limit,
- see what's the next due date for your seedbox,
- restart your seedbox,
- refresh your plex libraries to sync your media.
This guide will show how to install and use the mobile app right from your homescreen of your phone or tablet.
*For this guide we used an iPhone 6 device. Procedures are very similar to most of known mobile/tablet devices and browsers. Please adjust steps to match your specific device.
Installation
Open the following URL from your favorite mobile browser:
https://www.seedboxes.cc/mobile/
After the first view is successfully loaded, look for your browser settings to find the "Add to Homescreen" button.
Once the app is on your homescreen, open the app and press the "I've already done it" to prevent the "Add to Homescreen" message from showing again in the future.
Now you are ready to start the configuration procedure. Click the gear icon on the top right of your screen right next Seedboxes.cc logo.
In this step you need to go to the API Access page of your Client Area from your desktop computer, in order to enable API Access and get your unique API Key to use it in your mobile app.
Login to your client area. After you log in to your seedbox account, click in the "My Client Area" button.
Go to your "Settings" tab and enable "Api Access" by dragging the round button to the right.
Once your "Api Access" is enabled you can take your "API Key".
Once you've completed previous steps you need to go back to your Settings View of your mobile app and press the red "Take Snapshot of QR Code" button.
Press Take Photo or Video
Place QR Code in the middle of the screen and take the picture
Once you are confident with the picture you just took press Use Photo to proceed.
You will have your QR code decoded and automatically filled in the input field. Click Save to finish the configuration.
TIPS:
- QR Code decoding success rate depends on your camera capabilities ( resolution, sharpness e.t.c. ). If you get an error when our app decodes your image, make more tries and move your camera farther from your desktop screen. Reload app if needed.
- In Windows mobile phones or tablets you might have to take the picture and load it from your Downloads folder.
- If none of the above worked for you, you should fill out the API Key manually with your QWERTY keyboard.
