iSH Shell Reviews

缺少必要按键(Translation: Missing necessary buttons)

Wan Kexing on

United States

缺少ESC,CTRL,ALT,INS,END,SHIFT等必要按键,而且那个方向键也极其的不方便,不要说什么为了简洁,简洁之前要看看实不实用(Translation: Lack of necessary keys such as ESC, CTRL, ALT, INS, END, SHIFT, etc., and the directional keys are extremely inconvenient. Don't say it's for simplicity, before simplicity, we need to see if it's practical)

Questionable usablility.

Very cool, used on a iPad mini 2 16gb. I am a prominent user of Linux and wanted to use it on my tablet, but shell isn’t very usable without x11 support as my device does not do usb mass storage. It does have a range of packages, but I am also only used to bash shell contrary to what ish uses. Otherwise good app.

Great Linux Enviorment

This app is exactly what I needed on my iPad for coding without my mac! I’ve always wanted to be able to do light development in c/c++ and python with git support on the iPad and this app perfectly allows for this. I was able to install z shell instead of the base ash that comes with this version of linux as it better matches mac. Everything I wanted to install in the environment was able to be installed (though like mentioned, I only really wanted to be able to do minimal work on projects while away from my desktop). Like some others mentioned, it can be slow at times and have keyboard inputs freeze where you have to restart the app. Also, I wish there was additional themes for the app and native support of multiple windows. Overall this has been the best linux environment I have used on my iPad and would highly recommend this to any developer!

So good

Allowed me to ssh into my cloudflare tunnel using the cloudflared package and ProxyCommand. This app runs so well and fast. It’s crazy

Great App but it drains Battery

It is a really impressive app but it drains your battery a lot.

Prevent mounting of root directory to a directory on iPhone

It’s just a bug I found. Trying to mount the root directory onto a folder in On My iPhone/iPad causes the whole thing to break.

Where’s the web browser?

Nai-De on

United States

This needs a browser like links or lynx or something like browsh built in. You know, for accessibility testing (closest thing to browsing in Braille without learning Braille…) Also, the presence of a browser engine justifies JIT!
