I have some small issues, like with my exiting the remote ssh session and the terminal not closing as if it’s hung, but this is easily overcome by closing with the “x” button. Well-done! ### 5/5 — Like it *2025-06-07, version 2.0.7* Could find any way to copy text from terminal window. Please tell my how ### 5/5 — Great app! *2025-05-28, version 2.0.7* Is there a way to add up/down keys? To use last function again? If not, please add it if possible, please ### 5/5 — perfect *2025-05-22, version 2.2.12* best ### 5/5 — Pretty need *2025-05-21* Perfect !!!! ### 5/5 — Отлично *2025-04-29* Хорошая прога ### 3/5 — SSH works fine, SFTP permissions problem *2025-04-18, version 2.2.12* Mac OS sequoia. I can see the remote host folders but not those on my Mac. Portx has full disk access as well. Keeps asking me to grant permission, when I open the file picker and select a folder I still have the permissions problem. ### 5/5 — Works OK *2025-04-07, version 2.0.4* I use it on iPad, as remote linux terminal. For me, works perfectly. ### 5/5 — Raspberry Pi *2025-04-03, version 2.0.4* Test connection with Raspberry Pi Zero 2w. It took few minutes to set correct settings, and now I have ssh terminal on my phone. It work perfectly. Thanks ### 2/5 — Excellent Tool *2025-03-24* Superb tool but it doesn’t have session log saving. I am purposely rating 1 to get attraction so the developer will consider implementing session log saving feature. Please **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Session logging is in our dev queue and we hope to release it in the near future. ### 4/5 — xshell6에서 사용하는 세션 가져오기관련 *2025-03-18* 윈도우에서 사용하던 xshell 쉘을 아이패드로 가져오려면 어떻게 해야되나요? **Developer response:** 안녕하십니까? 리뷰를 남겨주셔서 감사드립니다. 현재 Xshell의 세션을 모바일 앱으로 가져올 수 있는 기능은 없지만 가까운 미래에 지원할 수 있도록 개발팀에게 의견을 전달하였습니다. 감사합니다. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Was great, renamed converted to subscription only and that was that *2026-02-14, version 2.0.8* I used this from time to time, now they replaced the app with a link to their paid subscription app, and that one is expensive. ### 1/5 — Doesnot work at all ! *2025-11-09* Only crazy signs in screen **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We are migrating to our new app, Xcasca which is also free. Can you try downloading it here and let us know if the issue persists? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/xcasca/id6749602189 ### 1/5 — Can’t paste text on editor *2025-11-06* This application can easily login on SSH, But I can’t paste text on editor ### 1/5 — End of life - Thank You *2025-10-04, version 2.0.8* Don’t waste your time. This app is end of life. Dev has decided to rebrand and create a paywall of $50/yr for the app with no option for home uses with only a few devices to connect to. I’m writing this to say thank you to the greedy devs for their pricing overreach. You forced me to look at other apps and I actually found one that is much nicer with a reasonable pricing option. ### 1/5 — Please remove nag screen *2025-09-29, version 2.2.13* The last version shows every time a nag screen and I am already fed up with it. Please don't show it more than once ... I am about to move away forever. ### 1/5 — Opening apps is very laggy. *2025-09-04, version 2.2.12* Especially after completely quitting an app and then reopening it, it takes more than ten seconds to open, on a Mac M1 Pro. ### 1/5 — Stürzt direkt nach dem ersten Versuch, einen Upload zu starten, ab... *2025-04-03* Die App stürzte beim ersten Versuch, diese zu verwenden ab und reagiert nicht mehr. Lässt sich nicht mehr beenden. Musste "hart" beendet werden. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Is it unable to load at all anymore? Can you send a screenshot of the issue as well as you OS version to support@portx.online? ### 1/5 — Fake app *2023-12-22, version 1.0.9* Fake, the app doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Key files don’t work *2023-08-18* Public keys that work on the mac version of the same app do not work on the ios version **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. PortX Mobile does not yet support certain key algorithms, but we are working hard to expand compatibility. We plan to release these improvements in the near future. ### 1/5 — Session manager *2022-02-23* Anyone can tell me how can I remove a session form Session Manager??? **Developer response:** You can right click and delete it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Please keep PortX, xcasca doesn’t work ( ssh ) *2026-08-17, version 2.3.0* Please keep PortX, the ssh is actually working while xcasca doesn’t work at all Make sure never to upgrade to xcasca, it simply doesn’t work ### 5/5 — отличное приложение *2026-07-06* все круто ### 5/5 — Super *2026-05-12* Great app. ### 5/5 — Leve, gratuito e fácil! *2026-05-07* Funciona perfeitamente ### 5/5 — Super *2026-02-06* Очень удобное приложение ### 5/5 — Really useful *2025-12-06* I like that it’s free, it has all the features I need. One suggestion: when editing on my iPad via “nano” I can’t use my keyboard for saving etc. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We are migrating to our new app, Xcasca which is also free. Can you try downloading it here and let us know if the issue persists? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/xcasca/id6749602189 ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2025-11-04* Excellent problem solver. Thank you for the product. ### 5/5 — Great ssh client *2025-09-22, version 2.0.8* It’s a great ssh client. But need an import/export data function to sync servers via different PortX apps. ### 5/5 — Amazing app! Useful! *2025-09-11, version 2.0.7* This app saved me so much time and money! Unlike other apps who charge a monthly fee this app is COMPLETELY free! Works seamlessly. And easy to set up! ### 5/5 — Great app for SSH without intrusive ads or paywall! *2025-07-27, version 2.0.7* This app works flawlessly for connecting to my various endpoints. It supports password and key authentication, multiple servers, and has an easy to use interface that allows you to organize servers into folders. The most fully featured user-respecting and non-paywalled app on the App Store. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
