• Segment View: Each drive is broken down into minute-long segments. You can expand a segment to see the individual files (qcamera, qlog, rlog).
• Downloads: Tap the download icon next to any file (e.g., qcamera.ts--0) to save it directly to your mobile device.

What it is:

The Device Stats page provides a comprehensive breakdown of your hardware's health and lifetime usage metrics.

How to use it:

What it is:

The Web Terminal provides full SSH access to your IQ.Pilot device directly within your mobile browser. No external apps required.

How to use it:

• When you open the Terminal from the Quick Actions menu, konn3kt establishes an encrypted tunnel using the public key you provided during pairing.
• The terminal opens directly into the /data/openpilot directory, giving you immediate access to the core software environment.

Mobile Keyboard Shortcuts:

Because typing Linux commands on a mobile phone can be tedious, the konn3kt terminal includes a custom shortcut bar above your native keyboard.
