What's New in NetShell

3.1.1

September 23, 2026

NetShell is now a subscription. Everything NetShell does is included in one plan — the terminal, SSH, SFTP, SMB, Telnet and Mosh, the on-device key vault, the network and Bluetooth scanners, server dashboards, Docker management and the AI assistant. There is no higher tier and nothing held back. One subscription covers your iPhone, iPad and Mac, because it is tied to your Apple Account rather than to a device. The current plans and prices are shown in the app, in your own currency, before you purchase. WHAT HAS NOT CHANGED Your keys still live in your device's Keychain, and still sync only through your own end-to-end encrypted iCloud Keychain — never a NetShell server. There is still no account to create and no server of ours to sign in to. Telemetry is still off unless you turn it on. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE • Background monitoring now works while your device is locked. Server and certificate checks that run in the background could not read saved credentials on a locked phone, so they quietly did nothing — the case where monitoring matters most. Fixed, with your existing credentials migrated automatically. • Fixed a background-task bug that could end the wrong task on expiry, which risked the app being terminated by the system during a save. • Corrected the support address shown in Settings. • The in-app Privacy Policy and Terms of Use now cover the subscription, billing and cancellation, and state plainly that NetShell is provided without warranty and that you are responsible for what you run on your own servers. If you have been using NetShell since — thank you. This change is what lets it keep being developed.

It was perfect before subscription

I started used it since it was as really early stages, but it exactly last update they made it need an subscription( that is really expensive), i mean if it was an open source project or at least an free, it was perfect, but as an subscription its literally dont worth it
I dont mean you guys should’t make money but I think if you make it an option tip/donation with nothing more than a thanks for them, and keep whole project free it is perfect, i mean im developer in cpp and python and java, if you guys need any helps I can help you
Just tell me so i send you my email or something

Response from developer

We will consider having a free plan and paid plans the subscription model is for the development of these tools to the best they can be! You will not be disappointed wait for the next update.

Best SSH & SFTP

I was looking for a while for an app that can ssh and edit my remote files at the same time in a dedicated editor. And it is FREE! Great job!

Standout Recommendation

Most mobile SSH clients are just basic text boxes, but NetShell is a deeply integrated, full-featured server management suite designed explicitly for advanced iOS capabilities. Most mobile terminals only allow you to type raw text. NetShell builds a graphical user interface (GUI) on top of your server data Docker Control and Swift Charts. Visual Network Topology MappingWhen connected to local Wi-Fi or networks, the app acts as a highly advanced scanner. Man!

Woah

Update: The dev adresses most issues quickly. The new update is substantial. This app has really neat UI and the UX was good but is now even better. A lot of things are explanatory at the right level and indicative of things when things dont work or are configured wrong.

Well done, thanks for making this!
