After 8+ years of using Zoneminder I'm looking to move to something less resource intensive and have tested Frigate with a USB Coral device and really like how little cpu this uses. Only issue is I can't figure out how to recreate the ease of use I get by using ZMNinja app on my phone. So, for those of you using Frigate how do you access it remotely on your phone that doesn't involve first connecting to your home network using VPN/Wireguard/Tailscale?

Currently I use Nginx-Proxy-Manger to forward secure connections to my Zoneminder server and use Zoneminder's built in authentication.

Thanks, I looked into my NPM setup further and turns out the GUI does have an option to create access lists that can be assigned per host. Now I need to look into HA because there is no way I can give access to the Frigate UI to my family as I don't see any basic monitor and events view that doesn't also include access to configuration options.
