TermCOW vs SSH Easy Terminal

TermCOW is an SSH terminal for developers, sysadmins, and anyone who wants to do their work anywhere. I originally built it so I could connect to my machine at home running AI coding agents in tmux from my phone. On a phone, it’s usually either tiny unreadable text to fit the whole terminal, or confusing text reflow, flashing, and wrapping when you zoom in. TermCOW uses pan and zoom instead of text reflow, so the terminal stays stable while you work. But if you like text reflow, TermCOW supports that too. All standard SSH features are free, including password/key auth, SFTP, and encrypted credential storage. Features • SSH with password and key auth • SFTP file transfer • Encrypted credential vault • Pan and zoom for a stable desktop-class terminal • Customizable multi-state shortcuts • Port forwarding • Jump host / bastion support • Back up settings to the TermCOW service • Premium jump host service for private IP access Clean, functional, minimal UI that stays out of your way while you do real work with a desktop-class terminal from your phone.

SSH Easy Terminal is a fast, native SSH client for people who manage their own servers and are tired of renting their tools. 3-DAY FREE TRIAL, THEN MONTHLY Start with a 3-day free trial. After that it continues as a monthly subscription. Every feature — including the on-device AI copilot — is included, and you can cancel anytime. AN AI COPILOT THAT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Explain a command, or describe what you want and get a command to run — powered by Apple's on-device models. Nothing is sent to a server. It works offline, with no inference cost and no account. A built-in guard flags destructive commands before you run them. (Requires an Apple Intelligence device; the SSH client works fully without it.) PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION Private keys are generated and stored in the iOS Keychain and never leave your device. No telemetry, no analytics SDKs, no cloud. The only network activity is the SSH connections you start.
