## What is Hooterm?

Hooterm brings your SSH workflow together on iPhone.

Connect to your own servers with passwords or private keys, keep multiple live terminal sessions in tabs, browse remote files with SFTP, create port forwards, route through jump hosts and run reusable snippets or fail-fast macros. The terminal includes an SSH-friendly accessory keyboard, persistent command history and configurable themes.

Your credentials stay in the device Keychain. Face ID can lock the app, and encrypted personal sync lets you use your workspace across devices without placing readable vault contents on Hooterm servers.

Hooterm Free includes the complete personal SSH toolkit. Hooterm Team adds shared encrypted workspaces, invitations, roles and team recovery for up to five members.
