It allows me to give the SSH details for my SSH host, and it seems like this app sets up an SSH tunnel and routes my traffic through that tunnel by connecting my iPad to that tunnel via a VPN. Really cool stuff. I have three suggestions for how this app could be improved: 1. Add option to hide the password for the SSH host. Right now it’s just showing it in plaintext. 2. Add more Face ID verifications where appropriate, or at least add an option for the user for this for better security. 3. The last & final thing is if we could add publickey authentication method for connecting to this SSH VPN, that would be awesome. I think it could make for a more secure setup instead of using a password. ### 5/5 — Almost perfect *2024-10-01* That’s exactly what I’ve been looking for! The only thing to wish for is pubkey authentication. ### 5/5 — Nice app *2024-09-04* Good day. The application is excellent, I would like to ask to add authorization by ssh key. I would also like to know if there is additional TLS encryption? ### 5/5 — Can run in background *2024-03-22* Works perfectly. All other SSH proxy apps require to use a special in-app browser because iOS does not allow to run an app in background for more than 30 seconds. This app seems to get around this by implementing the proxy as a VPN provider, which can run in the background for an unlimited time. The price for removing ads is very fair. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
