Good but please fix the wrapping URL bug

In terminal view when there is a URL listed that wraps then when you click the URL you lose the parts of the URL that have wrapped on to the next line.

Please fix this. Otherwise it’s great.

Pleasantly surprised

I originally downloaded this app in an attempt to organize and manage the obscene amount of SBCs that I have. Was pleasantly surprised by the clean looking interface. The dashboard is nice, allowing you to get a quick glimpse of the cpu, memory, and disk usages as well as temperature. I’ve tried a lot of these apps because they all seem to try to do too much- even though they all end up having the same features- and ultimately making the command line itself annoying to use or just unattractive. At the end of the day, I really just need an ssh connection- everything can essentially be accomplished from there, at least in my case. Anything that requires more than that requires more than a phone app. I feel as though this one does what I need and does it well. It also seems to have good GPIO functionality, although admittedly, I have not utilized it too much.

Simple and intuitive. Thanks for making it!

Some features I’d like to see:
1. Let user choose default path for SFTP or allow manually input.
2. Custom commands result page using monospace font.
3. A TV-remote-like interface with customisable buttons that bind to custom commands.
4. VNC/Keyboard/Mouse
Maybe 3 and 4 can be priced.

Great but constantly reads the clipboard

Useful to keep tabs on my Raspberry PI.

Why is it constantly reading the clipboard however? I can’t find a way to turn that off and there doesn’t seem to be any purpose on doing it.

Perfect

I just love software like this, simple , does exactly what it says on the tin
Thank you !
One quick note but I think that’s an Apple issue , file handling and pasting files through sftp doesn’t seem to work for some file types

Thanks again ! Thumbs up

Best Pi Helper out there

I was looking for some mobile putty alternatives, I tried a few and this ones the best by far. I can monitor my RaspberryPi’s temps/loads what process is using more resources etc.. overall really good for what it’s used for; it also has reboot/halt button in the main screen. Super convenient super useful I give it 5 stars. Thank you Devs 🙏🏽

What happened?

This used to be such a solid app. I’m getting failed connections, slow response in the app, freezing screen and a disappearing keyboard. I’ve tried other ssh apps they are all connecting with no issues. A real shame, this used to be so good. Now it’s bad 😕

AWESOME PROGRAM SOME IMPROVEMENTS

Hi,
I love your program (big fan) But i have an idea that will be very useful. Being able to download/upload files from server, I would like to see network and disk usage. Thank You

Perfect For The Task

Simple. Clean. Very Useful. App is well suited for the task and keeps to its intended purpose without much else. Has an excellent terminal built in that is great for quickly updating my pi.

Wow, art meets tech.

It’s beautiful and convenient.
Interface is topnotch and keyboard has add on with essential commands. Minimal latency and no adds.
Thank you for the app.
