Great stuff

Deceptive

The description states, “Blink Shell Classic $0.00”. There is no “Classic” option. There is no “Free trial.” There is no $9.99 version. It is all a lie. You must pay $19.99 before you can get past the app’s initial screen. Blink on that.

I thought I could not copy long outputs to clipboard, but…

It would be nice to have a way to highlight and copy a long prompt, rather than pinch to zoom out.

Simply Amazing for a Developer

I’m running a software startup on top of a full time job. I’ve used every terminal under the sun for MacOS and this is truly the only one I feel at home on. It just works the way I the way I expect and love that it has it’s own shell that you use to connect or send commands. I love how mosh keeps things connected. When I go on lunch breaks or can get away from my day job for a few minutes I use my iPad via cellular/tailscale and have no hiccups. Being able to grab a lightweight device and complete 95% of what I can do with a MBP by connecting to my MBP is just amazing. The VSCode integration works well too however using neovim/tmux on the MacBook via Mosh is my preferred flow. The MacBook has to stay connected to peripherals required to validate my code changes and now I can work remote and don’t have to splurge on a higher end Mac mini or studio or carry a ton of stuff with me:)

Says free trial.. rip off

It says it’s a free trial but it attempts to charge. Luckily all final transactions needs my approval via text otherwise instant denial. I do not recommend this app. Rip off and they are legit scamming and stealing. App Store shouldn’t allow this.

It was a good ride

I thought I bought it years ago, but now it means nothing and it locked me out with a pay wall. I understand the need to pay for development, but it could have been handled more gracefully.

Fixed all issues I had with Termius

This terminal does not have any of the occasional glitching that I would get with termius using nvim & tmux. Makes better use of space on my 11inch ipad. People complaining and downvoting due to the price are really making a disservice to the community, because the app is genuinely good. $20 a year is nothing for the amount of value offered.

Equipo de blink

Tengo una pregunta.. a la aplicación se le puede instalar una IA con agentes.. si la respuesta es si me pueden decir como

It’s paid

This is paid version but you need to download it first to know.

Brilliant

Just works so well

Best mobile terminal by far

Absolutely top 1

Solid app, worth the money

Not sure why this has such a low score, it’s definitely solid and I have been using it for years. I prefer it to anything else on iPad and iPhone. Mosh support is the killer feature to me. I don’t use much else that this has in terms of features - just sliding between different mosh sessions that are connected over tailscale to different containers on Proxmox. It’s a solid setup and everything works well with keyboards, etc.

GREAT!

It works as described, has some issues like any other software but it is better than MOST if not ALL like it in the Apple Store! Gets the job done

좆같은 회사

결제를 2번 함 하나 취소 했더니 못 사용하게 함 다들 사용하지 마세요.

Predatory trial model

“14 day trial” requires you to sign up for an auto-renewing subscription, placing the onus on the user to unsubscribe or be charged. This is a predatory dark pattern.

Forced trial or upgrade

The tool literally forces you to enter their trail for their paid version or upgrade to it. COMPLETELY USELESS APP unless you are looking for a gateway to a paid product. Use anything else. Companies that operate this way should be punished.

Doesn’t work without subscription

You should mention that it doesn’t work without subscription. Such a waste of time

Refused refund

Their app doesn’t have proper mosh support and they refused to refund the yearly fee

Mosh support is subpar, refused refund

Skip this app and just use Moshi, a much better experience and they won’t rip you off.
