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 touch-friendly terminal, use AI coding CLIs, manage project files, or connect to remote servers over SSH. Your local Linux environment runs without a remote server. ViSH requires an auto-renewing subscription (yearly or monthly) and offers a 7-day free trial. All features described below require an active subscription. AI coding wherever you are Install terminal tools such as Claude Code and Codex to explore code, write scripts, and refactor projects on iPad. Bring your own account or API key and configure your environment with guided setup. Use apk on Alpine Linux or apt on Ubuntu 24.04. Install Git, OpenSSH, Node.js, npm, pnpm, nano, ripgrep, tmux, and common build tools as needed. Manage files beside your terminal The session file browser lets you browse local Linux or SSH server directories, view file details, import files and folders, create directories, and delete multiple items. Insert selected file paths directly into the terminal to save typing. Keep multiple Linux filesystems, download supported systems or import your own archives, and switch which one boots. Each filesystem retains its login user, boot command, and setup state. Export tar.gz archives or browse all filesystems from a single ViSH location in the Files app. Flexible SSH connections and protected keys Save SSH servers with password or key authentication, jump hosts, port forwarding, keep-alive, and automatic tab reconnection. On supported devices, create Secure Enclave SSH keys whose private keys stay inside secure hardware. Optionally require Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode when using a key. You can also import existing keys. Secure Enclave keys remain on the device where they were created. Built for terminal work on iPad Use multiple terminal tabs and long-press + to choose a local or SSH tab. Side panels bring files, shortcut keys, appearance, voice input, and SSH tools beside your main terminal workspace. Make it your own with a phosphor-amber interface, 505 terminal themes with live previews, and coding fonts with glyph previews. Pinch to resize text, pin the shortcut bar, use sticky modifiers and command snippets, mirror the terminal in Picture in Picture, and open Linux links in Safari. Connect serial hardware Connect compatible Bluetooth serial adapters to Linux with modem controls and optional local RFC 2217 access. Settings includes device compatibility information and guidance for an ESP32 bridge to help you choose a connection method. 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 require your own account or API key with those services and may require a separate paid plan purchased outside ViSH.
