iOS app can’t wake server

[Nron007 1]

Sorry if this has been addressed, I found older threads from 2020 and 2021 but my iOS Emby app cannot wake my server - which is a windows pc connected via lan. All WOL settings are correct and my other devices (fire tv, chromecast with google tv) can wake it from sleep. Is this a known issue with the iOS app? My old android app had no issue waking it as well.

I can workaround with a WOL app, but I’d prefer it work directly with the app.

Hi there, why exactly do you think it can't wake the server? How are you trying to wake it?

[Nron007 1]

Hi, there is no button to wake the server, so I’m just logging in and it tries to access the server, and eventually times out. If I wake up the server beforehand, it connects fine. This is on the same network.

Have you explored the context menu on the server selection screen?

I have, and I don’t see anything to wake the server. I see an option to sign in (which I am), some old servers, but noting to wake the server. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app as well.

This is what I see on the server select screen (screenshot attached)

Press and hold on desired server, menu with Wake Server option will pop-up

Oh wow, I’m sorry I didn’t know that! It works. Thanks for your help!
