The information you need, together.

01

See the whole network

Tailnet health, devices, routes, Services, and pending work in one focused overview.

02

Go from signal to action

Inspect keys, DERP, endpoints, tags, routes, and device state without losing context.

03

Edit with safeguards

HuJSON Policy editing, server validation, access previews, and ETag conflict protection.

A command center that stays legible.

From Tailnet settings to Service health, the administration center groups the work by the decisions you need to make.

  • Live overview of devices, routes, Services, and risks
  • Drill into the exact state behind each alert
  • Refresh from the server so the UI stays honest

A bigger canvas for the hard parts.

Keep the device list, detail context, and administration navigation in view at the same time. TailScope treats Regular Size Class as a first-class workspace.

Your credentials stay close to you.

TailScope connects directly to the official Tailscale API. Tokens and OAuth client secrets remain in the device Keychain — not in a developer-operated relay.

⌁

Keychain first

Device-only, unlocked-access storage for API tokens and client secrets.

◉

A lock you can trust

Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode — plus a privacy shield when the app leaves the screen.

↯

Honest failures

Scopes, roles, plans, rate limits, and service errors stay visible and actionable.

Pro is a tool unlock, not a network upgrade.

A one-time purchase for the operators who need more room: unlimited accounts, batch device management, Policy Studio, and operational risk insights.

It never changes your Tailscale plan, role, or API scopes. Live capability still follows the credentials you bring.

Is TailScope an official Tailscale app?+

No. TailScope is an independently developed, unofficial administration client. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Tailscale Inc.

Does TailScope create a VPN tunnel?+

No. TailScope is an administration client for the Tailscale Admin API. It does not establish a Tailscale tunnel and does not replace the official Tailscale app.

Can I try it without credentials?+

Yes. The local demo uses fictional data, never connects to a real Tailnet, and does not perform real network writes.

How do I create an API access token or OAuth client?+

In the Tailscale admin console, open Keys → API access tokens to create a token for short-term or manual use. For ongoing access, we recommend Trust credentials → Credential → OAuth: choose only the read/write scopes you need, generate the credential, and save the client ID and secret immediately. You need an Owner, Admin, Network admin, or IT admin role to create these credentials. See the Tailscale API guide and OAuth client guide. TailScope stores credentials in the device Keychain and sends requests directly from your device to Tailscale. Tailnet data is processed locally; the app does not send your credentials, Tailnet configuration, API responses, or usage telemetry to our servers. If you contact support, only include information you choose to share and redact sensitive data.

What does TailScope Pro unlock?+

The one-time Pro Lifetime purchase unlocks unlimited accounts, batch device management, Policy Studio, and operational risk insights. It does not change your Tailscale plan, role, or scopes.

Will it bypass my Tailscale permissions?+

No. Server-side scopes, roles, plan limits, and service availability remain the source of truth. TailScope explains restrictions instead of hiding them.

Run the network. Keep the signal.

A native administration client for the moments when clarity matters.
