Signing In
To use the app you sign in to a Supracontrol server. A server is the combination of a server address, an account name you choose for the connection, and your user credentials. The app remembers your servers between launches.
Path: Login screen
Add a server and sign in
Enter the server address
Type the address of your Supracontrol server. The app checks that it’s a valid address and that the server is reachable before continuing. If you don’t include a port, a default one is added automatically.
Name the account
Give the connection an account name - a label that helps you recognise it later when you have more than one server saved.
Enter your credentials
Type your username and password. Use the show-password toggle if you want to check what you typed.
Sign in
Tap Login. The app requests a session token from the server and, on success, runs its startup and opens your default page. If your account requires a one-time password, you’ll be asked for it next - see One-time passwords (OTP).
If something’s wrong
The login screen shows a short message when:
- The server address isn’t valid.
- The server can’t be reached.
- The account name is missing.
- The same username is already saved for that server (duplicates aren’t allowed).
Staying signed in
Your session is restored automatically the next time you open the app, so you don’t have to log in every time. If the server ever rejects your session (because it expired or was revoked), the app returns you to the login screen with a message.
