Your servers, in your pocket. Pling is the most powerful SSH client and push notification platform for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Spin up a terminal in seconds, or say what you want done and let Pling run the session. MADE FOR iPHONE DUO Unfold for a bigger terminal: run two sessions side by side or stacked, drag the divider to resize, and switch panes from the keyboard. Split view works on iPad too. COMMAND AGENT Describe a task in plain English and Pling runs the SSH session for you: planning, dispatching, reading output, and adjusting as it goes. It asks on real decisions and stops before anything destructive. Launch it from the new Spotlight launcher or any terminal. SSH & TERMINAL A real terminal: full ANSI color, true emulation, and good-looking themes. Connect with SSH or Mosh. Mosh keeps sessions alive through subway tunnels and cellular handoffs. Jump hosts, SSH config import, and live port forwarding you can edit mid-session. Plus CRT mode, keyboard reordering, and saved snippets. REMOTE DESKTOP Stream and control a host's full graphical desktop in-app over hardware-accelerated H.264. Move the pointer, type on-screen, pinch to zoom, and tune resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS Hook up servers, scripts, and CI with one HTTP request. Custom channels, low-to-critical priorities, and action URLs to a runbook. End-to-end encrypted, delivered even when Pling is closed. AI COMMANDS & VOICE Forget a flag? Generate commands with AI tuned to your setup, or speak them on-device with Whisper or Apple Speech. Add photos or files for context. SERVER MONITORING Watch CPU, memory, disk, network, and uptime live via our agent or over SSH. Set thresholds and get pushed the moment a box runs hot. SFTP FILE MANAGER Browse, upload, download, and edit remote files natively. Preview images, PDFs, and docs. Search the directory and multi-select for bulk delete or downloads. WAKE ON LAN Power on a sleeping machine remotely. Pling sends the magic packet directly or via another host, with live status until it wakes. SESSIONS & HOSTS Every host card shows live reachability, plus a badge when the Pling agent is installed. Session recording and live sharing to pair in real time. Tap a host with a tmux or zellij session running and Pling jumps back in instead of duplicating it. Save a Workspace; hosts plus their sessions; and restore it on any synced device. Batch commands and schedule recurring jobs 24/7. SECURITY Keys and credentials live in Keychain, behind Face ID or Touch ID, with auto-lock, host verification, and fingerprint management. Optionally sync SSH keys and passwords via your Pling Account, with an audit screen for what syncs and what stays local. YOUR PLING ACCOUNT Sign in with Apple or Google to your own account; link both or merge duplicates. Your hosts, keys, and settings sync across devices, and you can now use Pling on the web. APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS & SIRI Triage notifications, check status, and run commands from your wrist with iPhone nearby; complications show unread counts. Pin hosts to your Home Screen and ask Siri if prod is up. FREE FEATURES • 3 concurrent SSH sessions • 5 saved hosts • SSH and Mosh connections • SFTP file browsing • 8 terminal themes • Voice input • Local network discovery PLING PRO • 10 concurrent sessions • Unlimited saved hosts • Push notifications with custom channels • API token for integrations • Unlimited scheduled commands • Unlimited AI command generation and Command Agent • All premium themes and CRT effects • Session sharing • Server monitoring with agent and alerts • Docker container control • Email digests • Critical alerts and notification rules • Workspaces: save and restore host + session bundles • Pling Account sync for hosts, keys, snippets, and workspaces An SSH-accessible server is required for terminal features.
