Hi forum, not sure where this question best fits.

I just switched from Android to iOs and when I want to grab the Winbox app via the link from Mikrotik website I get a popup that this app is not currently available in my country or region.
Is this a Mikrotik problem, App store problem or a "me" problem?
Kinda sucks if it isn't available for iOs 16.2...

It would help if you provide info what region is your region. No need to advertise an exact address just country :)

And appears to be removed from the Apple App Store in US market too. Normally searching for "Mikrotik" in App Store on a iOS device, finds it... but not today. And the link from Mikrotik website also gets same "App Not Available: This app is currently not available in your country or region".

I can confirm not available on IOS in Canada. I did see something called Winbox Mobile though???
Perhaps the author wanmei shao bought the rights ;-PPP

Now MT has thee things to fix
a. ios app
b. wireguard peer re-init
c. zero trust tunnel to ROS like wireguard instead of silly docker only availability.

I saw that winbox alternative. Not keen on installing it, unless it turns out is the ONLY option. Sigh...

Not listed in the UK App Store, but it still works if it was previously installed.

Well, good news, the app was available this morning.

Not sure what changed but it is now installed on my phone.

Thanks all.
