Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Terminux at 4.5 against SSH Client's 3.6. SSH Client's advantage is chart position (#145 vs unranked) and review sentiment (47% vs 36%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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 Terminux sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Terminux holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 406 and 83 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of SSH Client's written reviews are positive against 36% of Terminux'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, Terminux every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
