Terminal Emulator Plus an application that allows access to different types of Shell. Simple "terminal-optimized" tasks. In an abstract way, got a PTY (term.js) that connects to the shell (termprops.js) to the user's display. Friendly web front-end that can run quick functions that I normally used a Python shell for, such as common conversions and quick math.
TermTek

TermTek puts your SSH terminal within reach on iPhone and iPad. Connect to servers you control, keep your hosts organized, and return to your work when you need it. • Connect with a password or a supported SSH private key. • Review a server's host key before trusting it. Credentials and trusted host keys are stored in the iOS Keychain. • Keep multiple terminal tabs and reconnect to saved sessions. • Attach to tmux sessions running on your server to preserve remote work across disconnects. • Use mobile-friendly Esc, Tab, arrow keys, customizable quick keys, and a command composer. • Browse terminal scrollback in the same screen and copy selected text. • Import basic hosts from an SSH config file. • Choose English or Traditional Chinese through your device language settings. TermTek is an SSH client. It does not provide a server, a tmux installation, or an AI service. Remote work continues only when the server and any required remote session remain available.

Terminal Emulator Plus's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
