Termora — a fast, native SSH client built for iPhone. Connect to your servers, run a full interactive terminal, and manage your SSH keys — all in a clean, native iOS app designed for speed and security. FEATURES • Full interactive terminal — ANSI/VT with support for full-screen TUIs (htop, vim, tmux, and more) • Save hosts with password or SSH-key authentication • On-screen key bar: esc, tab, ctrl, alt, arrows, and common symbols • Generate Ed25519 keys on device, or import your existing OpenSSH keys • Quick Connect for one-off sessions — nothing is saved • Multiple simultaneous sessions with a fast switcher • Terminal themes: Dracula, Nord, Solarized, Gruvbox • Bell and cursor options SECURITY FIRST • Private keys and passwords are stored only in the iOS Keychain — never in plain files or logs • Optional Face ID / passcode app lock • Strict host-key verification (TOFU): you approve a server's fingerprint on first connect, and a changed key hard-fails to protect you from man-in-the-middle attacks Termora is local-first and single-user.
