C'est une honte. ### 1/5 — Wtf *2024-09-21, version 3.0* Wtf ### 1/5 — خايس *2024-05-27, version 3.0* التطبيق خايس يعني يوم سويت كل شي يقول لازم ادفع ؟ ههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههه ؟ خف علينا شايفنا فاضين لك ### 1/5 — Fail *2024-04-06* Doesn’t work with Linux server. That fact drives me insane, especially considering the price🤯 Terminus works though, will use it for now ### 3/5 — Nano edit *2024-03-27, version 2.9* naono 文本没法正常编辑 ### 1/5 — no import *2024-03-15, version 2.9* It’s weird this app doesn’t let you import a key it wants you to type it in. the problem with typing in a key is it’s long and you cannot open a key file on ios even though it’s just a regular text file it doesn’t work. ### 5/5 — Funciones que te sacan de apuros *2024-03-09, version 2.9* Básicamente funciona bien, es una buen auxiliar para trabajar con una tablet. ### 5/5 — Icy *2024-02-25, version 2.9* Icy ### 1/5 — Bella ma follia *2024-02-15, version 2.9* Bella, funzionale, sicuramente con tante opzioni e possibilità… Ma richiedere 70 € per avere la licenza a vita, è una follia totale, e comunque sto facendo un complimento. ### 1/5 — Terrible freemium implementation *2024-02-14* Lets you add a 2nd server for free, then doesn’t let you use it, asks you to pay. Fair enough. But then it also doesn’t even let you delete the old server. Not acceptable. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Paywalled instantly *2026-05-02, version 4.0.1* For a simple terminal is manages to paywall most of the good features ### 1/5 — Junk App *2025-11-13, version 3.11* Like some one else posted, this app allows for one connection and then you have to pay a yearly fee for any additional connections. Pointless to have it installed… Have no clue how it got such a high rating. ### 1/5 — Nothings working before you pay *2025-11-01, version 3.11* You are not able to try nothing before you pay, how to be confident with the purchase then? ### 1/5 — Just make the app paid *2025-08-17, version 3.6* Tired seeing apps that are free that are practically not usable without micro transactions ### 1/5 — Sad *2025-07-19, version 3.5* Just sad ### 1/5 — Never downloaded *2025-06-16, version 3.5* Phone was hacked. I was tormented. ### 1/5 — Greed ruined the app *2025-05-26, version 3.5* Copy/paste is such a basic feature and used to be free. Now you want me to pay for it? You already steer people to misclick on purchasing a subscription for $60 every time they connect to an SSH server. Your app is predatory and gross. Deleting it and not looking back. ### 1/5 — Сделайте русский язык *2025-05-11* Скачал приложение и ничего не понял ни одного слова на русском нет ### 1/5 — Not ANSI *2025-03-07, version 3.5* xTerminal does not support basic ANSI sequences, making it have very limited value as a terminal. Specifically, it does not respond appropriately to \e[6n. ### 1/5 — Don’t know why I’d pay $30/year *2025-01-03, version 3.4* It’s annoying that the cost wasn’t mentioned anywhere in the description. I don’t see the value the other reviews refer to. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Can actually use it for free *2026-08-04, version 4.0.1* Enjoy this terminal unlike others where they monitor what commands I use an gatekeep it behind a paywall ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2026-05-18* This app saved my life!
