Really Great
Biometric authentication was required to access the selected SSH key.”. Face ID worked successfully so not sure why it wont connect, but for now cant have SSH keys using biometrics or this occurs.
Would it also be possible to sort of poll the docker containers command and show it as a widget? Heck there are a number of incredibly useful snippets you have included here in this app and honestly if there was another page even in the app where we could sort of set up background polling or cron jobs, would allow for a whole server dashboard situation and you already have the whole gallery of custom modules via the “Apps” that could be dragged around and resized, updating at intervals on a resizable canvas!

Pretty awesome app for accessing the terminal, and I am finding the included shortcuts extremely convenient. Much like how it can already be done with servers in the app, I would suggest similarly adding a small star next to the OS icon of each “App” so that users can save their favorites. Also, it would be pretty cool to be able to make custom “Apps” in that panel for particular OS by pretty much copypasting the CLI commands (People would have many use cases). To be honest, if there was a way to both run and see the updated results of these CLI Apps as iOS widgets would be an amazing feature. You have made the GUI-ification of the CLI outputs very useful in how the Apps you have made/included as defaults.
The command reference button in the terminal is also great and could be even more of a utility if custom commands could be saved there too.
IMPORTANT:
The app states it does not collect any data; though it appears to have google sdks which will passively collect even minimal yet serious metadata and device info (not by you the dev) For an app like this, users want to see that it solely connects to their destinations in the App Privacy Report. As of now, the No Data Collected claim is not accurate given that firebase makes 2-3 connections and perhaps some apple analytics as well are leaking telemetry.

The server apps are a pretty cool and very convenient feature. So far the UX is nice and the UI is pretty. Good first impressions, will likely update this review after using it more. An optional feature to use iCloud to sync hosts across Apple devices would be cool, with the ability to set which server credentials sync encrypted via iCloud and which do not and remain solely on that specific device/instance.
Thanks for making this app

At the moment, all saved credentials remain on the device. Passwords, private keys, and other sensitive data are stored locally in the iOS Keychain and are not synced through iCloud. Optional iCloud sync for hosts, especially with per-credential control over what stays device-only versus what syncs securely, is a great suggestion and something I’m seriously considering for a future update. Thank you for the thoughtful feedback and for taking the time to share it.
Liking it so far
