PfSense androidGUI app (a work in progress)
-
I would say you should focus on the future. The future would be a responsive GUI for Pfsense. If the GUI was responsive it would be cross browser compatible on all of today's known mobile devices. If you need some help getting things going on that front, I would be glad to give you a hand.
I also believe you would get far more interest on github for a new responsive GUI design for Pfsense than a android app as your setting up. Surely if interest took hold the developers of Pfsense I would think would put there 2 cents in to ensure at some point the two could merge.
As for development for android all that would be needed would be wolan …. after that the responsive GUI would take over. If you setup the app to access various services for example, every time Pfsense has a update there's a chance something will break. I don't know what the odds are, but it could turn out to be a major headache. The same can be said for a responsive GUI github project also but if its going in the right direction like I said the Pfsense developers should give the project a helping hand.
Hell, if you don't do the github for a responsive GUI I just might do it.

I hear what your saying but I am not a web developer and wouldn't know where to begin. If you make a start on this I can try and help you out!

I would like to see and Windows Phone version since I'm a windows guy. And you might as well make a Iphone version too. I would like to see you can do everything in the mobile version just as if I was on my laptop. I would even pay $5 if I knew that $2 was going to the Pfsense folks.

Uploaded a test version of the app for people to have a play with.

Loaded it on my Nexus 7. Seems to work fine.
It would be nice if the settings page showed the existing setting for each section without having to touch each one. More like the other android settings dialogues.Steve

Uploaded the project to github: https://github.com/CharlieMarshall/pfSense-androidGUI
All contributions are welcome
Edit: Upgraded my test box to pfSense 2.0.3 last night and everything seems to have survived the upgrade.

Ah, I should have mentioned my test box is 2.1. Worked fine. :)

Anyone know who I need to speak to about using the pfSense logo within the app?
If I can't use it for copyright reasons does anyone fancy making something?
On another note progress is moving along nicely (well it feel like it is but looking at the list of commits there's not a huge amount of new features)
