I realize the browser interface and BI iOS app use the same port -- I'm wondering if it's possible to disable the interface that is available in a browser? I don't have any use for the browser version and I'd prefer if it were disabled all together. I only use the iOS app in my set up.

Thanks!

Why are you even thinking about this?

Because I don't like the idea of port 8080 being open to HTTP traffic. Accessing the system from the app is one thing; someone stumbling upon it from the web is another...

if you are concerned about security then you should be using a vpn.....everything that is transmitted to the app can be seen by a pc that has access to the webserver port...
