Yado vs ViSH

Yado gives you a full cloud development environment on your phone: a real terminal and a chat interface driven by your own AI coding agent. You can work from your phone, without a laptop. WHAT IS YADO? Sign in with GitHub and a cloud development container starts for you, with the tools already installed. Chat with your agent to build, or drop into a real terminal when you want direct control. You can switch between chat and terminal, and they share the same session and context. FEATURES - No laptop required. Your environment runs in the cloud, not on a computer that has to stay awake. - No setup. The container comes ready, with nothing to install or configure. - Bring your own agent. Connect the AI subscription you already pay for. Your AI provider bills you for usage, not Yado. - Chat or terminal. Start in chat, take over in the terminal, and keep the same context. - Live preview. Run your app and open it on your phone. - Push notifications. Start a task, lock your phone, and get notified when it finishes or needs you. DEVELOPER TOOLS Real git, a real shell, and standard developer tools. Clone repositories, run builds, make commits, and open pull requests from your phone. SUBSCRIPTION Yado is a subscription. One plan, everything included. Yado is $19.00 per month or $113.99 per year, with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. Yado requires your own subscription with a supported AI provider.

ViSH turns your iPad into a portable, local ARM64 Linux workspace — run Alpine Linux or Ubuntu 24.04 in a terminal designed for touch, with a phosphor-amber interface, 505 color themes with live previews, and a shortcut key bar built for real CLI work. Keep multiple Linux filesystems side by side, switch which one boots, import or export root filesystem archives, and browse every filesystem from a single ViSH location in Files. No remote server is required. ViSH requires an auto-renewing subscription (yearly or monthly) after a 7-day free trial. Everything described below — the Linux terminal, AI coding CLIs, side panels, SSH tools, and the Setup Guide — requires an active subscription. Run AI coding CLIs directly on your iPad. Install Claude Code and Codex to pair-program, refactor, and explore codebases right from the terminal. Bring your own account or API key, pick your model, and configure everything through a guided setup. A complete terminal toolchain: • Alpine Linux with apk or Ubuntu 24.04 with apt • Git, SSH, and the OpenSSH client for cloning, committing, and remote work • Node.js, npm, and pnpm for JavaScript and TypeScript projects • Editors (nano), fast search (ripgrep), tmux, and common build tools • Claude Code, Codex, and other terminal coding agents Filesystems, SSH, and hardware: • Download supported filesystems or import your own archive • Keep separate login users, boot commands, and setup state for each filesystem • Export any filesystem as a tar.gz archive • Save SSH servers with password or key authentication, jump hosts, port forwarding, keep-alive, and automatic tab reconnection • Connect Bluetooth serial adapters to Linux, with modem controls and optional local RFC 2217 access Designed for iPad: • Multi-tab terminal sessions; long-press + to choose a local or SSH tab • Pinch to resize terminal text, mirror the terminal in Picture in Picture, and open guest links in Safari • A pinnable shortcut key bar with sticky modifiers and command snippets • 505 terminal themes in a live gallery, plus coding fonts with glyph previews • Side panels for Keys, Appearance, Voice input, and SSH • A guided Setup Guide for hostname, package mirrors, environment variables, and tools • SSH key management and config editing Great for: • Mobile development and quick fixes on the go • Remote maintenance over SSH • Running AI coding CLI sessions away from your laptop • Learning Linux and the command line Notes: All app features require an active ViSH subscription after the 7-day free trial. Some Linux features are limited by the iOS sandbox. Third-party tools such as Claude Code and Codex also require your own account or API key with those services, which may involve a separate paid plan purchased outside ViSH.
