DevToolkit vs Xtend

A developer's toolkit in your pocket. SSH, SFTP, FTP/FTPS, DNS, Ping, Traceroute, HTTP, WebSocket, SSL and more — all in one app, no accounts, no data sent to the cloud. A single password encrypts everything and keeps it on your device. 13 professional tools, one interface. Native iOS 17 app; no ads, no tracking, no backend. NETWORK DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS • DNS Lookup — A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME records; multiple types in one query • Ping — live latency chart, avg/min/max and packet loss statistics • Traceroute — UDP-based, per-hop latency with reverse DNS • Redirect Checker — follows the HTTP redirect chain step by step; loop detection • SSL Checker — TLS certificate, chain, expiration, cipher suite, SAN list FILE TRANSFER (FTP/SFTP) • FTP, FTPS and SFTP protocol support • Folder upload and download (recursive, including subdirectories) • File permissions (chmod) — numeric mode with preview • Rename, move, copy, bulk delete • Tappable breadcrumb for fast directory navigation • Home icon jumps to the root directory in one tap • Connection details and passwords stored encrypted REMOTE SHELL (SSH) • xterm-256color emulation — top, htop, vim and other screen apps work smoothly • Password, OpenSSH Ed25519 private key, and Secure Enclave-backed P-256 key auth • TOFU host key verification; warns against MITM attacks • Customizable keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl, Esc, Tab, arrow keys, pipe, tilde, slash • Reorder shortcuts by drag and drop • Active SSH sessions stay alive in the background WEB DEVELOPMENT • Built-in browser — WKWebView with Console, Network, and Storage panels • HTTP client — GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS; header editor, JSON/Form/Raw body • WebSocket — connect, send/receive text and binary frames, live log, 500-frame buffer • History for previous requests (HTTP and WebSocket) FILE MANAGER • Local file browser with tappable breadcrumb • Syntax-highlighted code editor: JSON, YAML, Markdown, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Bash, HTML, CSS • Image viewer and editor — crop, resize, convert to PNG/JPG/WEBP/HEIC/GIF/ICO, quality control • PDF reader • Media player: MP4, M4V, MOV, MP3, AAC, WAV, MKV, WEBM, AVI, FLV, TS, OGG • Archives: ZIP, TAR, GZIP, BZip2, XZ, 7Z, RAR extraction; ZIP compression • Hardened against archive attacks like zip-slip MEDIA PLAYER (from URL) • MP4, MOV, MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV • HLS live streams (.m3u8) • Custom headers like Authorization and Cookie (HTTPS only) • History of loaded streams NOTES • End-to-end encrypted notes — protected by your app password • Attach photos and files • Attachments open directly in the in-app viewers SECURITY • On-device PBKDF2 (200,000 iterations, SHA-256) and AES-GCM encryption • All connections, passwords, SSH keys, notes, and history stored encrypted • Atomic password change with automatic rollback on failure • Auto-lock — immediate, 1 min, 5 min, 10 min, 30 min, 1 hour • Auto-wipe after too many wrong password attempts (optional; 3, 5, 10, 15, 20) • SSH private keys can be generated inside the Secure Enclave; the key never leaves the device • No data is sent to any cloud. No backend. No account required. WHO IS IT FOR? System administrators, backend and web developers, DevOps and network engineers, and anyone who tinkers with servers and networks. One app, one password, fully local — a professional workstation in your pocket. WHAT CAN YOU DO? • Connect to a remote server via SSH, run commands, tail logs • Transfer files and folders over SFTP, change permissions remotely • Verify DNS, SSL, and redirect chains when launching a new domain • Diagnose network issues with ping, traceroute, public/local IP • Test a REST API, try a WebSocket endpoint • Watch live console output and network traffic in the built-in browser • Download a ZIP archive, extract it, edit the code inside with syntax highlighting

Xtend puts your development workspace in your pocket. A free companion app runs on your Mac. Your iPhone or iPad connects to it directly — encrypted, peer to peer — over any network. Your projects, your tools, your machine. You just aren't sitting at it. YOUR PROJECTS, ORGANIZED Every project on your machine becomes a workspace, with its own sessions, its own branch and its own history. Pick up a conversation from this morning, start a new one, jump between them. Everything survives closing the app. CHAT WITH YOUR CODING AGENT Talk to the agent already installed on your machine — Claude Code or Codex — about your real projects. Streaming replies, tool calls, syntax-highlighted diffs. Slash commands and @-file mentions work exactly as they do in your terminal, because it is your terminal. APPROVE WHAT IT RUNS, FROM YOUR POCKET When the agent wants to run a command or edit a file, the request appears on your phone. Approve, always allow, or deny. Xtend never decides for you — it carries the question and brings back your answer. A REAL TERMINAL Not a toy. Full xterm emulation with ANSI colour, pinch-to-zoom, text selection, eleven themes, and a font panel that does not dismiss the keyboard. Attach files from your photo library, camera or Files app. BUILD AND RUN Start an Xcode build, follow the log as it streams, then install straight to your iPhone — wherever you are, with no cable and no need to be on the same network. Runtime logs from the running app, searchable and filtered by level, like the Xcode console. And when you need to see it move, mirror your iOS Simulator live and touch it — taps go straight through. NO SAME-NETWORK REQUIREMENT Your phone and your desk find each other wherever they are. Cellular in one place, Wi-Fi in another — the connection is direct and end-to-end encrypted either way. PUSH WHEN IT MATTERS (Premium) The agent needs a decision, a long build finishes — your phone tells you, and you can answer without opening the app. Free accounts see the same alerts inside the app. WHAT YOU NEED • A Mac running the free Xtend Host companion (download at getxtend.com) • Sign in with Apple, on both • One Mac per Apple ID FREE AND PREMIUM Chat, terminal, projects and builds are unlimited and always free — no trial, no counter, no catch. Simulator mirroring and installs to your iPhone come with a generous daily allowance. An in-app purchase lifts that allowance and adds push notifications, for people who need more.
