Explanation

Qmanager is a mobile app that allows you to monitor and manage your QNAP NAS anytime and anywhere. You must be a NAS administrator to use Qmanager. 

This tutorial explains how to set up and use Qmanager to manage your QNAP NAS.

    Tip
    Qmanager automatically finds every QNAP NAS on your local network. Based on the search results, select a NAS and log in with your username and password. If you have changed the port number (default: 8080) of the NAS, enter the new port number.
