MQTTAnalyzer

I use this all the time to monitor numerous topics/messages on my broker backbone. I use MQTT messages to monitor 6 different solar battery systems, 2 water tanks, thermal sensors, etc. Many of these messages are parsed and put in a MariaDB, but some are just sent to the broker so having a good client that lets me watch them as needed is a real help. Only issue I have is that when switching between apps I get disconnected from the server too often. Some of the messages are only posted every 5 or 10 minutes, so I wish I didn't have to just sit with this app in the foreground all the time so I don't miss messages. Other than that, great tool!

Tried a few others and did not like that they did not let you just look at the latest message updating live. This one is great in that event and breaks down the individual properties in the JSON. The Siri shortcuts support sounds awesome. I probably won’t use it since I use Home Assistant for all my automations, but nice to know it’s there.

I’m using 1.7.2 and it’s working great. I think some of the low star reviews were from earlier versions, and things are working fine now. I’m re-architecting my home automation system and using mqtt for zwave, node-red and presence sensors. This app is perfect for this, and it ever breaks down the JSON payloads into describe values.
