Chapter 14: Communicate with Mobile Devices
As Internet access grows popular on mobile devices, Synology provides you with several creative alternatives to
communicate with your Synology NAS using iOS/Android, Windows Phone, or other mobile devices.
Manage DSM Settings with DSM mobile
DSM mobile allows DSM users belonging to the administrators group to manage DSM settings and check DSM
information with the web browser of an iOS (iPhone, iPad or iPod touch), Android device, or Windows Phone.
To log in to DSM mobile:
1 Use the web browser of your iOS/Android device or Windows Phone to connect to
http://Synology_Server_IP:5000.
2 Enter your DSM user credentials and tap Login.
Note: For more information about DSM mobile, please see this tutorial.
Use iOS, Android, and Windows Apps
The Synology mobile apps are now available on Apple's App Store, Android Market, and Windows Marketplace,
allowing you to communicate with Synology NAS wherever Wi-Fi access is available. You can manage files,
music, photos, videos, even the surveillance videos on your NAS, sync folders between your mobile devices and
NAS, download files, and watch videos on the go.
DS audio
DS audio allows you to access Audio Station with an iOS/Android device or Windows Phone and listen to your
favorite music on the go. Besides, the remote controller feature allows you to control Audio Station's music
playback when there is an audio output device connected to the USB port of your Synology NAS, such as a USB
speaker, or an external speakers or home stereo equipment connected to the audio dock of Synology Remote
(sold separately).
DS cam
DS cam allows users who own an iOS/Android device to live view their IP cameras, take snapshots, and view
recorded events from your Surveillance Station whenever a network connection is available.
DS cloud
DS cloud is the mobile counterpart to Synology's Cloud Station Server and allows you to easily sync folders
between an iOS/Android device and Synology NAS.
DS download
DS download allows you to access Download Station and download files directly with an iOS/Android device or
Windows Phone. You can create download tasks by adding a URL, via a built-in mini browser of the application,
or the integrated Safari browser for user convenience. Managing basic settings such as transfer speed limits or
activating the advanced schedule is also possible.
DS file
DS file allows you to access and manage files on your Synology NAS with an iOS/Android device or Windows
Phone.
