Clouder

Clouder is a mobile app for managing Cloudflare services and responding to incidents from a phone. Its free plan provides read-only access to DNS, Workers, Pages, and zone overviews, along with basic traffic and request analytics and status monitoring. Users can view, add, edit, and delete DNS records, and import or export zones as BIND files. The app shows Pages deployments and provides Workers logs, execution metrics, and route management. Its listed services also include R2, D1, KV, WAF, Zero Trust, Tunnels, analytics, and incidents. Clouder Agent answers questions about Cloudflare resources and requires approval before making changes. API calls go from the device directly to Cloudflare; each device uses a scoped token that expires after 30 days and renews automatically. Deleting the Clouder-App token in Cloudflare ends the app’s access. The iPhone and iPad app requires iOS 18 or later and supports Home Screen widgets and incident Live Activities; Android supports widgets and incident notifications. Clouder is made by Layton Labs AB in Stockholm.

Clouder offers mobile access to a broad set of Cloudflare services, with a free read-only plan and approval controls for agent changes. Check the iOS requirement and plan details if you need write access or broader capabilities.

It suits people who manage Cloudflare resources from an Android or iOS device and want mobile incident tools. The free plan is limited to read-only access across its listed services.

Overview

Clouder is an independent mobile app for managing Cloudflare and responding to incidents from a phone. It suits Cloudflare users who need service visibility and operational controls on the move; its free plan is read-only, so users who need to make changes will need Pro.

Key features

Clouder covers DNS, Workers, Pages, R2, D1, KV, WAF, Zero Trust, Tunnels, analytics and incidents. Its breadth is useful for teams working across several Cloudflare services, though it remains a single-cloud tool rather than a general multi-provider console.

For DNS, users can view, add, edit and delete records, and import or export a zone as a BIND file. Workers support includes logs, execution metrics and route management; Pages deployments are visible in the app. Together, these controls make the app more than a status dashboard, but write operations require Pro.

Clouder Agent answers questions about Cloudflare resources and requires user approval before it makes changes. That approval step gives users control over agent-led actions. The app also offers incident monitoring: iPhone and iPad users get Live Activities, while Android users get incident notifications. Widgets are supported on both platforms.

API calls go directly from the device to Cloudflare. Clouder describes a scoped token for each device that expires after 30 days and renews automatically; users can revoke access by deleting the Clouder-App token in Cloudflare's dashboard. This gives users a direct revocation path, though token renewal is automatic rather than requiring routine manual renewal.

Pricing

Free: free. This plan provides read-only access to DNS, Workers, Pages and a zone overview, plus basic traffic and request analytics, status monitoring, widgets and push notifications. It is a sensible fit for people who mainly need to monitor Cloudflare resources from a phone. Its central limit is clear: it does not include write access or the broader service coverage of Pro.

Clouder Pro: custom pricing, billed In-app purchase. Pro adds read and write access across Cloudflare services, Workers deployment, DNS updates, Clouder Agent, live incidents, real-time tail logs, multiple accounts and full R2, D1 and KV.

Platforms

Clouder is available on Android, iPhone and iPad. The iPhone and iPad app requires iOS 18 or later, a material constraint for users with older devices. Both platforms support widgets; incident alerts take the form of Live Activities on iOS and notifications on Android.

Who it's for

Clouder is best suited to Cloudflare users who want mobile monitoring, incident response and, with Pro, service changes from a phone. The free tier serves read-only monitoring needs; people who need workflow builders, scheduled automation, self-hosting or multi-cloud coverage should look elsewhere.

Layton Labs AB, based in Stockholm, makes Clouder. Its support page accepts feedback and issue reports, provides general and security contact emails, and says it usually responds within 24 hours.

Pros and cons

• Pros: The free tier includes monitoring, widgets and push notifications without write access, making it useful for keeping tabs on Cloudflare at no listed plan charge.
• Pros: Pro combines service changes, incident tools and agent approval controls, so mobile administration can cover more than basic observation.
• Pros: Per-device scoped tokens can be revoked in Cloudflare's dashboard, giving users a direct way to end app access.
• Cons: Pro's price is custom pricing, so buyers cannot readily assess its cost against their needs.
• Cons: The free plan is read-only and covers a narrower service set than Pro, limiting its usefulness for active administration.
• Cons: The iOS app requires iOS 18 or later, excluding older iPhone and iPad software versions.
• Cons: Clouder is single-cloud and has no workflow builder or scheduled automation, so it is not a fit for broader orchestration needs.

Alternatives

Cloud Automation Software is a useful starting point for comparing tools across the category.

• OpenText Cloud Management is a paid alternative available on Android, iOS and web; consider it if you want a broader platform comparison rather than Clouder's Cloudflare-focused mobile app.
• Azion Content Delivery has a free Hobby plan at no cost for personal projects and experimentation, with usage and resource limits; its listed platforms include API, Linux, macOS, web and Windows. Choose it when those platforms and a free entry tier suit your needs better.
• Cycloid offers a free SaaS plan for up to 5 users and one workspace, with Blueprints, Forms and orchestration, plus native RBAC, SSO and MFA. It is a better fit when a team needs those collaboration and governance features rather than mobile Cloudflare management.
• Juju is a free open-source orchestration engine from Canonical, with API, Linux, macOS, self-hosted and Windows platforms. Consider it when an open-source orchestration engine is the priority.
• Quali Torque offers a free version and a free trial, with API, self-hosted and web platforms. It is an alternative for readers comparing paid cloud automation tools.
• Apache CloudStack is free, open-source IaaS cloud software available through API, Linux, self-hosted and web. Choose it when open-source IaaS is the goal instead of a Cloudflare mobile console.
• Cloudify has a no-time-limit Community plan that requires Docker or VM setup and access to a cloud provider to run workloads. Its listed platforms include API, Linux, macOS, self-hosted, web and Windows; consider it if that deployment approach fits.
• Cloudpods offers a free Open Source Community Edition with open-source features and lists API, Linux, self-hosted and web platforms. It is an option for readers comparing free cloud-management software.

Verdict

Choose Clouder if you manage Cloudflare and want phone-based monitoring, incident response and a path to approved service changes. Its read-only free plan is useful for oversight, while Pro brings the meaningful administrative capabilities. Look elsewhere if you need a stated Pro price before committing, multi-cloud management, scheduled automation or support for an iOS version earlier than 18.
