Server by ShanApps

Server by ShanApps gives you a real, self-hosted backend server that runs directly on your Android phone or tablet. There are no cloud signups, no remote servers to configure, and zero data leaves your device.

If you build web apps, work with Flutter or React Native, test APIs, or just want an offline-first SQLite database running locally on your phone, this app was made for you.

What you can do:

• Run isolated servers locally
Start one or more backend instances on any port you choose (such as 8090, 8091). Each server keeps its own independent SQLite database and file storage directory so your projects never mix up data.

• Built-in Web Admin Dashboard
Open the web admin panel directly from the app or through any browser on your local network. Browse your SQLite collections, edit records, manage schemas, and test queries with a clean visual interface.

• Realtime events & REST API
Every server provides a full REST API with realtime Server-Sent Events (SSE) out of the box. Test client subscriptions, authentication flows, and file uploads directly over your local network.

• Connect from any device
Whether you are on home Wi-Fi, using your phone's mobile hotspot, or testing through local loopback (127.0.0.1), your laptops, tablets, and test devices can connect immediately. The app displays your live network interfaces and generates a quick QR code for fast pairing.

• Background service built for Android
Your server stays running when you switch between apps or lock your screen. A persistent status notification shows you active ports and gives you instant one-tap control.

• 100% offline & completely private
Everything runs on your phone's processor and storage. There are no user accounts, no telemetry, no tracking libraries, and no analytics. Your data belongs to you.

Designed for developers, students, and hobbyists who want a quick, reliable backend environment right in their pocket without messing with cloud servers or Docker setups.
