The Problem

On-call engineers often need to investigate alarms and restore AWS workloads before they can reach a computer. Existing mobile experiences make this difficult through repeated authentication, weak multi-account and region navigation, missing logs and metrics, interrupted terminal sessions, and limited remediation controls. General-purpose console access also increases the risk of selecting the wrong resource or account under pressure.

Potential Solution

Build a focused incident-response product rather than reproducing the entire AWS console. It would combine alarms, saved log queries, essential service health, clearly labeled accounts and regions, and a small catalog of preapproved actions such as restarting an instance, changing load-balancer membership, scaling a service, or invoking a recovery runbook. Every action would show its target and impact, require appropriate approval, and produce an audit record.

Why Now?

Cloud operations span more accounts, regions, and managed services while on-call teams are expected to respond continuously. Years of reviews show that mobile diagnosis and remediation remain persistent needs rather than a single release regression.

iPad app is stuck in 2005 The Amazon experience on desktop and iPhone are fine, but the iPad app is truly atrocious. It won’t render properly on the iPad screen, the font sizes are impossible to read, and it is missing functionality. I end up using the browser interface on iPad, which is not as convenient. It seems like such a small expense; is it a signal that Amazon isn’t interested in the retail business anymore?

AWS Console

CloudShell on mobile needs to be fixed to be useful! The Cloudshell terminal doesn’t handle the virtual keyboard properly. As you type and enter commands, the input and cursor are often hidden behind the keyboard, and the terminal doesn’t adjust the visible buffer or viewport to accommodate the keyboard’s presence. This means you’re constantly scrolling up to see what you’re typing, which is disruptive. It would be ideal if after a command is entered, the last bit of the output stopped above the keyboard and not the bottom of the screen (hidden by the keyboard). This behavior seems to stem from a not dynamically adjusting the terminal viewport or row count when the keyboard is displayed—something that most modern terminal emulators handle correctly. The lack of synchronization between the input area and the visible buffer is a major flaw, especially for users trying to work efficiently on the go.
