A good place to start

Make yourself
at home.

Managerr is a companion to the media services you already run. These guides cover getting your first service connected, every screen in Settings, the network questions that come up once, and what to check when something does not look right.

What you need

Three things, and nothing else. There is no account to create and nothing to subscribe to.

An iPhone or iPad on iOS or iPadOS 26 or later. The iPad app also runs on Apple silicon Macs.
At least one running Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Prowlarr, Seerr or Tautulli service that this device can reach.
That service’s API key, copied from its own settings.

One service is enough to start. Add the rest whenever you like, including several of the same kind — a second Radarr for 4K films is an ordinary setup, and Managerr keeps every server distinct.

What Managerr does not do

Managerr connects to an existing setup. Use each service’s own documentation to install and configure it.

It does not install, host or configure Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Prowlarr, Seerr or Tautulli. Set those up first, using each project’s own documentation.
It does not supply media, indexers or download clients, and it has no catalogue of its own.
It does not set up remote access. If your server is not reachable from this device, see Reaching your servers.
It has no server of its own and no cloud account. Your configuration stays on the device, and nothing is relayed through anything of ours.

The five-minute path

If you have a service running and its API key to hand, this is the whole of it.

Open Managerr. The welcome screen lists the six services — see First launch.
Tap the one you want to connect, then fill in its address and API key. Add a service covers every field.
Tap Test Service. A successful test is what enables Save.
Repeat for anything else you run, from Settings → Services → Add a Service.

How these guides are laid out

Start here: The first run, the service editor field by field, and the demo.
Your services: Where to find each service’s API key, which port it uses, and which parts of Managerr it supplies.
Settings: Every screen in Settings, in the order the app lists them, with what each control changes and how it ships by default.
Network & access: Local network permission, addresses and ports, HTTPS, VPNs, reverse proxies and custom headers.
Beyond setup: Searches and imports, widgets and Shortcuts, and a troubleshooting checklist.

Where answers come from

Start with the error shown in Managerr. Connection failures can come from the device, network, proxy or service; searches and imports can also fail on the server. The troubleshooting guide helps you find the relevant setting or log.

These guides provide setup and troubleshooting help without a support email address. Troubleshooting is the page to read first, and it says which log to open for each kind of failure.
