Node-PAD

An independent Node-RED port for creating node-based flows on iPhone and iPad.

Our take

Useful for small authorized automation experiments

A visual editor and bundled nodes connect inputs with services.

Keep in mind: The captured runtime is Node-RED 2.2, not a verified current release; node and background execution compatibility need checking.

What you can do

  • Visual flow editor
  • One-tap runtime deployment
  • Dashboard, email and iOS nodes

Good for

  • Users already familiar with Node-RED

Consider alternatives for

  • Guaranteed current desktop-node compatibility

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 12.0.
  • The captured runtime is Node-RED 2.2, not a verified current release; node and background execution compatibility need checking.

Privacy & permissions

Flows can contain API keys and control real services; restrict credentials and exposed dashboards.
