Veelops
Read full descriptionHide full description
Vibe code from anywhere. Literally. Veelops connects your phone to your machine's full terminal โ your shell, your tools, your AI coding agents. Run Claude Code from the couch. Kick off a build on the train. Pair program with a teammate from across the world. All end-to-end encrypted with a protocol that makes SSH look like a science project to set up. โ THE IDEA โ Your laptop is at home. Your dev environment is set up just right. Veelops lets you use all of it from your phone. Install the agent, scan a QR code, done. No SSH keys, no VPN, no certificates, no open ports, no config files. If your machine has internet, it works. โ VIBE CODE WITH AI AGENTS โ The agent works perfectly with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and OpenCode. Mount your repos, point an AI agent at your codebase, and ship features from a park bench. Your phone becomes the remote control for your dev machine. โ SESSIONS THAT JUST WORK โ Switch from Wi-Fi to cellular. Close the app. Come back hours later. Your session kept running. Long builds, background processes, AI agents working through a task โ nothing is lost. Reconnect and it's all there. โ BUILT FOR YOUR THUMBS โ Local echo so typing feels instant. Terminal auto-sizes to your screen. Easy copy/paste of output. Nerd Fonts built in for powerline prompts. โ COLLABORATE LIVE โ Multiple people in one session. Same terminal, everyone can type. Pair program, debug together, or walk someone through a deploy in real time. โ ACTUALLY SECURE โ Not SSH. Not a VPN tunnel. A purpose-built protocol where the relay server is content-blind โ it routes traffic but literally cannot read it. Noise IK handshake, XChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption, perfect forward secrecy. One-time pairing codes. Free plan available. No credit card required. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
sshido

sshido is a fast, private SSH terminal for iPhone and iPad โ built for driving AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, aider) on your own remote servers from your phone. FEATURES โข Real terminal: full xterm-256color, Metal-rendered for speed and smooth scrolling even on heavy output. โข tmux session persistence: your work survives reconnects, network drops, and app switches. Pick up exactly where you left off. โข Push notifications: get an alert the moment your agent finishes a task or needs input, via a free, open-source relay you can self-host. โข Private by design: Ed25519/RSA keys stored in the iOS Keychain, host-key verification (TOFU), and nothing sent to third parties. โข Built for the way you work: a customizable shortcut bar, smart copy of URLs and terminal output, a one-tap OAuth sign-in helper, and image upload straight into your session. Bring your own server over SSH. Self-hosting the push relay is free, and always will be.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: sshido at none against Veelops's 2. sshido also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Veelops's advantage is iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
