EVE Buddy is a desktop companion app and has three key features:

  • Give you access to your characters without having to log into the Eve client or switching your current Eve character
  • Provide you with helpful functions, that the Eve client is lacking, like asset search across all your characters
  • Notify you about important events: new Eve communications (e.g. a structure was attacked), new Eve mails, PI extraction expired, Training queue run empty and more

EVE Buddy is available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

Looks great! Wasn’t able to download my assets or transactions, but other than that everything else seems to be working.

Do you have plans for a mobile app?

This one looks super slick. Really digging the clean UI. Makes me want to create an app with go :smiley:

Any plans to have a total asset feature (including PLEX)?

tyvm.

Yeah the Fyne GUI toolkit is really nice for make GUI apps in Go. And it also supports Android and iOS, so I might extend the app to mobile at some point. But currently my main focus is the desktop.

I would love too, but AFAIK it is currently not possible to retrieve the PLEX wallet balance from ESI.

The android version has a different and mobile friendly navigation. But underneath it is the same app and it has the same features like on desktop.

The Android version like the rest of the app in still in development and I would very much appreciate you guys trying it out and letting me know what you think.

Hmm, I tried to add a Character, but after login and authorizing the esi permissions, it just loads for some minutes and then says “connection timed out”.

Android is V12 on a customized (jailbreaked) Samsung S10E.
Browser is Firefox for Android 135.0.1

I can login on the EVE Online page, see my characters, select one and click “authorize”, but then after the loading progress is at around 25% it stops. I will try another browser, maybe it’s a cookie/privacy setting problem.
