Phylax is an Android viewer for the self-hosted Frigate NVR. Unofficial and not affiliated with the Frigate project.* Auto URL switching between internal (LAN) and external Frigate based on Wi-Fi SSID.
* Background notifications with snapshot thumbnails. Alerts open the Review timeline; detections open the Explore view.
* Per-camera, per-zone and severity filters. One notification per tracked event.
* CPU and GPU badges in the top bar. Tap for RAM, uptime, per-detector inference and per-camera FPS.
* Connection status dialog with a live latency graph.
* mTLS client certificate support.
* Two-way talk on doorbell and intercom cameras.
* Clip and snapshot downloads.
* Reliable on Android 14+ with SPECIAL_USE foreground service, wake locks and a WorkManager watchdog.
No analytics, no cloud, no account. Credentials kept in encrypted local storage.
Compatible with Frigate 0.12+ for notifications, 0.13 to 0.17 for stats.
WhatsNew:
* Alerts arrive again when a reverse proxy handles the sign-in, or when your Frigate has no login at all
* Client certificates are offered again if the certificate prompt was ever dismissed
* Motion notifications can be marked urgent, so they pop up with a stronger vibration
* The background listener connects faster and stops retrying a sign-in that cannot succeed
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
