Don’t buy this, it doesn’t work.

This app throws a ‘handshake failed’ message trying to ssh to a local area network connection. Don’t waste your money.

Want a refund - fails to connect

Fails out of the gate. Useless junk app.

App constantly crashing

Why is it EVERYTIME I click a command, the entire app crashes. It’s been like this entirely too long. I’ve even paid for this app. Please update your app or we will report it to Apple, demanding a refund…

Doesn’t work

Failure establishing SSH session, handshake failed.
I have another SSH app that works fine, but I wanted to execute commands with a click. This app would be the best if it worked.
