About

Shelify SSH Remote Connect

Features
Read full description

Your servers, one tap away. Shelify is a fast, no-nonsense SSH client for your phone. Connect to a server, run what you need, and get on with your day โ€” no account, no cloud sync, no setup ritual. SSH IN SECONDS Save a host once and reconnect with a single tap. Password and private key authentication, custom ports, and standard SSH options โ€” all in a form that takes under a minute to fill in. A REAL TERMINAL Full-screen terminal with proper key handling, an extra key row for Ctrl, Tab, Esc and arrows, and pinch-to-zoom text sizing. Colors, cursor and control sequences behave the way you expect them to. SNIPPETS AND SAVED COMMANDS Store the commands you type over and over โ€” deployments, log tails, service restarts โ€” and run them in one tap instead of retyping them on a phone keyboard. MULTIPLE SESSIONS Keep several servers open at the same time and switch between them without dropping a connection. KEYS STAY ON YOUR DEVICE Private keys, passwords and host details are stored in the device keychain. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is synced to a server we control. WORKS WHEN YOU NEED IT Import an existing key, generate a new one, or paste one in. Connection details are yours to export and back up whenever you want. NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED No sign-up, no email, no profile. Install the app and connect. Shelify is built for people who administer servers and want a terminal in their pocket that doesn't get in the way. Shelify is free to use. Some features are available with Premium. โ€” Premium is an auto-renewable subscription. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Shelify SSH Remote Connect is a terminal client. It does not provide server administration advice, and you are responsible for the commands you run on your own systems.
