## Most critical reviews (4 lowest-rated)

### 4/5 — Maybe promising

*2026-09-07*

Secure enclave key support is nice. Min font size of 10 is criminal (need to be able to go down to 3 and support pinch zoom for it, im trying to be productive here). 

Being able to define multitouch gestures is also much needed.

No dedicated herdr gui, only TUI.

The command button is 100% opaque and blocks content, which is ridiculous since it stays in the same place and easy to reach; great concept though. 

Updgradrd to 4 stars because whats been implemented is beautiful and robust, but cant be a 5 until i am able to wanna use it on a regular basis.

**Developer response:** thanks a lot for the feedback - this really helps the product improve!

i've shipped almost all the ideas you suggested just now except for multitouch gestures which i want to take some time and be thoughtful about. 

font size can now go down to 3. the dial now becomes transparent at rest. herdr now has a GUI menu called "agents view". when you get a chance, please have a try and see if they solve your needs! happy to iterate further to make the experience even better.

### 5/5 — it’s super useful when i’m lazy and don’t want to get out of bed

*2026-09-01*

the way this is designed is super useful. it's a little bit of a learning curve because you have to learn how to use this dial but it's probably a five-minute max learning curve to be honest. it's really helpful having the voice command to type in and then it automatically sends in there.

i personally use wezterm plus herdr similar to kun chen’s actual setup and i've learned to actually love using this over mac terminals. it's like the best way to use terminals and so this is a better way than terminus which was the previous app i was using. it is far far easier to use. i think it still has some room for improvement. i'm not sure where yet. it could improve upon because it is a very difficult thing to squeeze all of your terminals into one app or into one little phone screen.

i think notifications could be the next big thing here: getting notified on my phone when a terminal is finished working. wondering if that's possible

**Developer response:** thank you for the kind words, and good idea for notification! will look into it

### 5/5 — Ultimate Remote Terminal Tool

*2026-08-24*

I’ve tried all the popular terminal apps for iOS and they all have shortcomings, mostly from how hard it is to interact with the keyboard and things like copy and paste. And it’s especially bad when you’re using coding agents like Claude, Codex, Grok or Pi with a tool like tmux or herdr. But SSHHIP’s floating action button which lets you pick and choose exactly what you need between the keyboard, pasteboard, voice input, herdr support, and snippets has made it my new daily driver for my iPad and iPhone when I need to check on my agents away from home.

**Developer response:** thank you for the kind note!

### 5/5 — Great start

*2026-08-06*

Excited to see where it goes

**Developer response:** thank you, and cheers!
