Homarr: Dashboard for All Your Seedbox Apps

1 min read

Homarr is a customizable dashboard that brings all your seedbox apps together in one beautiful homepage. Instead of bookmarking dozens of URLs for Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, ruTorrent, and other apps, Homarr gives you a single page with tiles for everything — complete with live status indicators and quick actions.

Why Use Homarr? #

  • One page, all apps — Access every seedbox service from a single dashboard
  • Live status — See which apps are running, download progress, and system stats
  • Customizable — Drag-and-drop tiles, custom icons, categories, and layouts
  • Integration widgets — Show Sonarr calendar, Radarr upcoming, torrent status inline
  • Bookmarks — Add external links alongside your seedbox apps

How It Works #


  YOUR SEEDBOX APPS — WITHOUT vs WITH HOMARR

Step 1: Install Homarr #

  1. Log in to your EvoSeedbox Client Area
  2. Go to Services > your seedbox > Apps
  3. Find Homarr and click Install
  4. Click Open when ready

Step 2: Add Your Apps #

When you first open Homarr, you’ll see an empty board. Click Edit Mode (pencil icon) to start adding tiles:

  1. Click “+ Add tile”
  2. Choose App
  3. Enter the app name (e.g., “Sonarr”), URL from your dashboard, and pick an icon
  4. For *arr apps, Plex, and Jellyfin you can enable integration widgets by entering the API key — this shows live data on the tile
  5. Drag tiles to arrange your layout
  6. Click Save

Integration Widgets #

Homarr can show live data from your apps directly on the dashboard:


  AVAILABLE INTEGRATIONS
  ══════════════════════════════════════

  App            Widget Shows
  ───            ─────────────
  Sonarr         Upcoming episodes, calendar
  Radarr         Upcoming movies, queue
  Plex/Jellyfin  Currently streaming, library size
  Prowlarr       Indexer status, search stats
  rTorrent       Active downloads, speeds
  SABnzbd        Download queue, speed

  Setup: App tile → Edit → Integration tab
         → Enter API key → Save

Troubleshooting #

App Tile Shows “Offline” #

  • Verify the app URL is correct (check your dashboard for the current URL)
  • Make sure the app is actually running — visit its URL directly
  • Some apps need HTTPS URLs with the correct port

Integration Widget Not Loading #

  • Double-check the API key (found in each app’s Settings → General)
  • Make sure the app URL in Homarr matches exactly (including https:// and port)

Tips #

  • Set Homarr as your homepage — Bookmark it as your browser start page for instant seedbox access
  • Use categories — Group tiles by function (Media, Automation, Tools)
  • Custom icons — Upload app icons for a polished look
  • Add bookmarks — Include external links like your tracker profiles alongside seedbox apps
