What's New in WebSSH

32.9

September 11, 2026

٩(^‿^)۶ WebSSH has been updated Its codename is : 32.9 - Comet (Ion Tail) So what's new in this release? ↓ ◖ Release Adds ◗ ๏ SCP Support : #128 ๏ Ability to clone a snippet : #1359 ๏ Column selection : Alt+CMD and left-click : #1679 ๏ Embedded Web Browser : Ability to add multiple credentials per domain : #1696 ๏ Terminal Broadcast Input : #1675 ๏ ALT+CMD + Arrow Keys should navigate split panes : #1699 ๏ Postmaster Tools DMARC "t=" update : #1697 ๏ Ability to launch a file browser (SCP) from a SSH terminal : #491 ๏ Tunnels : Ability to show network activity in sidebar : #865 ๏ mosh support : #1562 ๏ Ability to show connection information (Key Exchange, etc.) : #1658 ◖ Release Fixes ◗ ๏ Rename popup allows only English keyboard : #1683 Have a great day! (i) Want to support WebSSH further? (i) WebSSH PRO is, and will always be, a one-time lifetime purchase. A few users have told me they'd like to contribute more than the one-time price. So there's now an option to leave a small voluntary tip (monthly or yearly). As a thank-you, supporters unlock a few digital goodies: mini games and other delightfully useless things ;oD On a more personal note: over the next few months I'll be dedicating a lot more time to WebSSH. My hope is to eventually make it my main livelihood — but never at your expense. WebSSH has been going for over a decade, and it's not stopping either way. So the promise stands, and it isn't going anywhere: PRO is bought once, kept forever. Tipping is entirely optional, and always will be. (＾◡＾) (Please note that you can only leave a tip if you have already purchased WebSSH PRO) — Arnaud

Brilliant

Works exactly as expected - pay once for premium features (at a very reasonable price) - can’t complain!

Love it

Great for those emergencies when you’re not at work and don’t have any other device and you need fix something ASAP.

My fav app ever!

This app is very useful for home labing and sys admin. The dev is really good at adding new features and takes a lot of requests from users for new tools and features. The onetime payment for pro is also such a consumer friendly approach!

Great! Used daily for many years. Just Works

I use WebSSH almost every day to remotely access my Fedora Linux system (primary home computer). Great for archiving, sysadmin…

Response from developer

Olá Victor 👋 Muito obrigado pela avaliação de 5 estrelas e por ter comprado a versão PRO! Isso me ajuda muito a continuar desenvolvendo o WebSSH como desenvolvedor independente 🙏 E boa notícia: se você realmente quiser fazer uma doação mensal, o WebSSH 32.8 já inclui os “Goodies” digitais (planos mensais ou anuais) 🎁 Você pode encontrá-los em WebSSH > Ajustes > WebSSH Sponsorship > Goodies Muito obrigado pelo seu apoio!!! 💕 Tenha um ótimo dia ☀️ Arnaud
