What's New in WebSSH

32.8

August 24, 2026

٩(^‿^)۶ WebSSH has been updated Its codename is : 32.8 - Comet (Outgassing) So what's new in this release? ↓ ◖ Release Adds ◗ ๏ HTTP Forge Tool : Ability to build and run CURL compatible requests ๏ Hex Viewer Tool : Edit small or GB files on the way! ๏ Embedded Web Browser : Bookmark your favourites apps : #1056 ๏ Embedded Web Browser UI/UX Enhancements : Smoother access to your IT apps! 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

Great tool

I use it mainly to remote into servers over VPN. It is snappy and I love the interface. Built-in keyboard have the right shortcuts.

Very good SSH client plus lots more

This is a great SSH client. I always used PuTTY at work and had it installed on my MacBook but this app is better with lots of extras. Played with it for half an hour then bought the very reasonably priced Pro version. Love the constant updates and love the non subscription model.
