Control Linux Machines via Cockpit via Android Open Accessory.
This app allows you to connect your Android device to a local Linux device running [aoa-proxy](https://github.com/jo-bitsch/aoa-proxy). This tiny (~20kb) service announces the name, version, and IP addresses to Android via the [Android Open Accessory](https://source.android.com/docs/core/interaction/accessories/protocol) protocol. This means, that even if you don't have the app installed, the standard Android UI will already give you basic information, like the description and a URL to more information.
Once you have the app installed, you can use this channel to locally connect to the SSH server on the Linux device, if you have login credentials. This works via the USB cable and doesn't require you to be in the same network.
