A tmux-first mobile terminal built for the Agent Age. You're running coding agents and long-lived sessions on real servers — and you want to check in, steer them, and unblock them from your phone. TermRover is an SSH terminal designed for exactly that: first-class tmux, plus two things you won't find in most mobile terminals — send images straight to your agents, and talk to them by voice. DRIVE TMUX WITH YOUR THUMBS • Quick Row — fire Tab, Esc, Ctrl, arrows and the other keys agents need, without hunting through the keyboard • Switch tmux sessions and windows in a single tap • Scroll back through history by touch, with native mouse-mode support • A terminal actually built for a touchscreen — not a desktop one bolted onto a phone SHOW YOUR AGENT WHAT YOU SEE • Attach a screenshot or photo and hand it straight to the agent in your session • Ideal for design feedback, error screens, diagrams — anything faster to show than to type TALK TO YOUR AGENT, HANDS-FREE • Dictate prompts by voice; the transcript drops straight into the composer, ready to send • Describe what you want while you're away from the keyboard CONNECT SECURELY • Standard SSH — password and OpenSSH key (Ed25519/RSA) authentication • Host-key verification on first connect (trust-on-first-use), so you always know which server you're talking to • Manage multiple hosts and jump back into your work in seconds FREE TO USE, PRO WHEN YOU NEED IT Everything you need to connect and work is free — full SSH, full tmux, and a daily allowance of voice dictation and image attaches. TermRover Pro lifts those daily limits (unlimited voice, unlimited image-to-agent) and unlocks the full theme set, via an optional annual subscription (with a 7-day free trial) or a one-time lifetime purchase. A subscription auto-renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings. Your keys and credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain. TermRover collects no personal data for tracking. More information: https://termrover.sh Guide: https://termrover.sh/guide.html Privacy policy: https://termrover.sh/privacy.html
AgentPanes
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your agents keep working when you step away. AgentPanes brings their terminals within reach. Connect to your own computers over SSH and find agents running in Herdr and tmux. Open a specific agent, switch between agents from the terminal, or start a normal SSH connection when you need a shell. FIND YOUR WORK - View supported agents across the machines you choose. - Sort by observed activity, pin important agents, and see output changes since your last visit. New output is not a claim that a task has finished. - Switch agents without returning to the main list. A TERMINAL BUILT FOR YOUR PHONE - Use terminal keyboard controls, text selection and supported links. - Scroll terminal output and adjust text size. - Keep separate saved zoom settings for tmux and Herdr/normal SSH. YOUR MACHINES, YOUR CONNECTION - Connect directly over SSH; no AgentPanes account or server-side AgentPanes installation is required. - Authenticate with a password or an imported OpenSSH Ed25519 private key. - Review the host fingerprint and per-machine Herdr/tmux permissions. - Use reachable IP addresses or hostnames. Tailscale hosts require a working Tailscale connection; host-led Tailscale SSH approval is supported. - Protect access with the app lock and device authentication. AgentPanes is free to download. You supply your own SSH-accessible machines, agents and any third-party service accounts. Herdr or tmux must already be installed on the machines where you want to discover their sessions.
