About

PocketTerm SSH

Features
Read full description

PocketTerm is a mobile SSH client for iPhone. Add a host, connect, type a command in the input box, and see remote output right away. An interactive PTY on the direct channel helps you run Agent CLIs and common terminal tools on your own servers. What you can do • Add servers with host, port, and username; sign in with password or OpenSSH private key • Line-oriented input: send a full command and watch results in the terminal view • Interactive PTY for remote Agent CLIs and common TUIs (depends on what you install on the host) • Per-server working directory and command history with up/down browse • Built-in quick commands plus a custom library • Detect remote tmux: switch, create, and delete sessions from the session bar (delete requires confirm) • 16 UI languages and a dark Pocket visual style Security • Passwords, private keys, and known hosts stay in on-device Keychain • Host-key TOFU: trust on first use; changed keys need your explicit clear before re-trust • We don’t run your servers or upload your credentials Notes • You need your own SSH-reachable Linux/Unix host and any Agent CLI you already use there • This is a mobile SSH client—it does not bundle third-party Agent products, and it is not a cloud IDE Built for developers and operators who need quick remote actions—and Agent sessions—on the go.
