A read-only companion for Metabase

Dashpocket

Keep your Metabase dashboards close. Charts, KPIs and the data behind them on iPhone and iPad, with pinned numbers and alerts that tell you when to take a closer look. Dashpocket connects straight to your own instance, with no server of ours in between.

Your numbers, in two taps

Pinned KPIs, real native charts you can tap and scrub, alerts for the numbers that matter, and the table behind any chart. Connect your own Metabase, glance at what matters, and let alerts handle the rest.

Metabase, but in your pocket

Dashpocket is a native iPhone and iPad companion for Metabase, the open-source BI tool. Point it at your own Metabase Cloud or self-hosted instance and your dashboards and questions become fast, glanceable, native charts — the kind you can read in a couple of seconds between meetings. Nothing about your numbers passes through a Blue Flame Games server, because there isn't one.

Native charts

Your Metabase questions rendered as fast native charts. Tap and scrub for exact values, compare periods, or swap any chart for the underlying table.

On-device briefing

A short, plain-language summary of what your numbers are doing, written on the device. Supported Apple Intelligence devices get richer wording; others get a structured summary.

Metric alerts

Set thresholds on cards and dashboards, or let smart alerts flag unusual changes. Checks run in the background when iOS allows, and a notification takes you straight to the right card.

Goals & forecasting

Set targets on the metrics that matter, see where the trend is heading, and check a daily scorecard.

Why did it change

Cross-KPI attribution helps you see which moving parts drove a number up or down.

News that moves your numbers

Follow your industry, competitors, and topics, and read the relevant headlines in-app, distraction-free.

Read-only, by design

Dashpocket never edits your Metabase content. It connects, reads the dashboards and questions you already have, and presents them beautifully — so a phone glance answers the question instead of opening a laptop.

Tap & scrub

Touch any chart for the exact value at any point, then swap it for the underlying table when you want the raw rows.

Widgets & glances

Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets keep your headline KPIs one look away.

Offline & locked

Your last results stay cached for when you have no signal, and an optional Face ID or Touch ID lock keeps the app private.

The news module

The numbers tell you what changed. The News module helps you understand why. Follow the subjects that matter to your business — your industry, your competitors, the topics you watch — and read the relevant public headlines in a clean, distraction-free reader, right next to the metrics they affect.

Follow subjects

Type the industries, companies, and topics you care about. Dashpocket pulls the relevant public news for each.

Distraction-free reading

A calm in-app reader — headlines and context, no autoplay, no infinite doomscroll.

Your subjects stay yours

The subjects you follow are stored on your device and only ever sent as a public news search query. Blue Flame Games never sees them.

Where your data lives

This is the part that matters most. Dashpocket is built so your dashboards, credentials, and the numbers behind them stay yours.

No Blue Flame Games server

The app talks directly to your own Metabase over HTTPS. We never sit in the middle. There is no backend to breach because there is no backend.

Credentials in the Keychain

Your Metabase URL and credentials are stored only in the device Keychain — encrypted by iOS, never transmitted to us.

Briefings on the device

The briefings and explanations are generated locally. Your numbers are never sent anywhere to be summarised.

No accounts, no tracking

No sign-up, no analytics, no telemetry. Open the app, connect Metabase, and you're in.

Built for trust

Direct to MetabaseHTTPS to your own instance. No middleman server.
On-device briefingSummaries generated locally. Your numbers stay between you and your Metabase.
No subscriptionFree trial, then a one-time unlock. No ads.

Simple pricing

Dashpocket is free to download, with built-in sample dashboards you can explore without an account and a 7-day full-access trial. After that you keep basic access with one instance and two favourites, or a one-time unlock keeps every feature — no subscription, no ads. There's an optional supporter purchase for people who want to back the work, but it isn't required.
