Muxly vs Agentmux

Native tmux for iPhone and iPad, optimized for AI coding agents running on your host. Muxly is a native tmux client that makes you forget you're inside tmux. Your tmux windows become tabs, panes are a tap away, and scrolling is smooth and native. Your sessions keep running on your server when you close the app or lose connection, and an encrypted bell notification can reach you when a build finishes or an agent needs you. TMUX, FULLY INTEGRATED • Create, rename, reorder, and close real tmux windows from a native tab strip. • Switch panes with the iPhone pane picker or work with your tmux layout on iPad. • Resume your last session, choose an existing one, or start fresh. • Switch sessions over a live connection. • Your tmux prefix and shortcuts work as usual, including with a hardware keyboard. • Return to the same server sessions from your other tmux clients. THE BELL FOLLOWS YOU Step away while your work runs. When a program rings the terminal bell, optional push notifications can reach you even after Muxly closes and SSH disconnects. Configure builds, scripts, or coding agents to ring when they finish or need input. Notification content is end-to-end encrypted. FILES AND EDITING • Browse and manage remote files over SFTP. • Upload from Files or Photos, download to Files, and save supported photos and videos to Photos. • Edit code and configuration files with built-in syntax highlighting. • Keep your file browser and unsaved edits available while switching terminal tabs. • Share photos and screenshots with coding agents in just a few taps. A TERMINAL MADE FOR TOUCH • GPU-accelerated rendering and momentum scrolling. • Precise text selection, copy and paste, and terminal search. • A customizable keyboard toolbar with shortcuts, snippets, sticky modifiers, arrows, and F1–F12. • Hardware keyboard support. • Editable voice dictation on iOS and iPadOS 26 or later. • 12 monospace fonts, 4 themes, adjustable text size, and up to a million lines of scrollback. DIRECT SSH TO YOUR HOSTS • Password and Ed25519 key authentication. • Generate or import Ed25519 keys, or create Secure Enclave keys protected by Face ID or Touch ID. • Local, remote, and dynamic SOCKS port forwarding. • Host key verification, startup commands, environment variables, and keep-alive settings. • App Lock with Face ID or Touch ID. No Muxly account, ads, or tracking. SSH traffic goes directly to your servers. Credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain; Secure Enclave private keys stay on the device. FULL ACCESS Connecting requires a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. You can start for free with a two-week free trial. REQUIREMENTS iOS or iPadOS 18 or later and an SSH server. Native tmux integration requires tmux 3.2 or later on the server. Optional bell notifications also require openssl, curl, and outbound HTTPS. Plain SSH works without tmux. Terms of Use: https://muxly.sh/terms Privacy Policy: https://muxly.sh/privacy

Agentmux turns your iPhone and iPad into a command center for remote development. Connect to your servers, resume persistent tmux sessions, launch coding agents, browse project files, preview Markdown and web apps, and make quick code edits without opening a laptop. Agentmux is built for developers who already live in terminals, SSH, tmux, and AI coding agents. Run coding agents from your phone Launch Claude, Codex, OpenCode, Antigravity, Cursor, Qwen, Kimi, Grok, Hermes, Pi, OpenClaw, and your own custom CLI agents directly inside remote project sessions. Agentmux discovers your projects, keeps agent launch actions close to the work, and tells you when an agent is working, done, or waiting for you. AI Permission Review Let AI handle routine permission prompts while you're away. It uses your own AI endpoint and API key, asks you whenever it isn't confident, and records every decision in an audit log you can review. Keep sessions alive with tmux & Live Activities Remote work should not disappear when Wi-Fi drops or iOS switches networks. Agentmux integrates deeply with tmux so you can reconnect and continue where you left off, and it restores your tabs when you reopen the app. Monitor background tasks and active sessions at a glance with Lock Screen Live Activities and Dynamic Island. If tmux is missing, Agentmux can help install it on supported servers. Browse and edit remote projects Open a file explorer over SSH/SFTP, move through project folders, inspect Git context, preview Markdown, and edit text and code files with line numbers and syntax highlighting. Edit configs with confidence using strict validation for JSON, YAML, and TOML. Swipe through remote image galleries, and play remote videos and audio right away without downloading the whole file. Preview web apps Forward a port over SSH and open your dev server in the built-in browser, with console logs at hand. Designed for mobile terminals Use the iPhone shortcut panel for arrow keys, Ctrl, Esc, Tab, Home/End, and other terminal controls. Copy text that spans more than one screen, and copy from remote editors like Vim and Neovim to your clipboard with OSC 52. Scroll inside mouse-aware programs such as vim. On iPad, use a hardware keyboard, trackpad, landscape layout, and a larger workspace. Sync your workflow Optional iCloud sync keeps supported server settings, recent sessions, and recent files available across your own devices. SSH credentials are stored securely in the iOS Keychain. Agentmux is a focused SSH workspace for developers who want their remote dev box, coding agents, tmux sessions, files, and editor in one mobile app. 14-day free trial with Pro features. Agentmux Pro is available as a lifetime unlock.
