Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iTerminus at 4.5 against SSH Client's 3.6. SSH Client's advantage is ratings volume (406 vs 16) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. SSH Client sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and iTerminus sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
iTerminus holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SSH Client has 406 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of SSH Client's written reviews are positive against 33% of iTerminus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SSH Client ships an update every 2 weeks, iTerminus every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
