SSH Client - Secure ShellFish

Has been very reliable over many years of use. Integrates nicely with iOS. Snippets are a handy time saver.

Quality.

Using an iPadPro to SSH into a Linux box, and trialing a few other SSH clients. I found this one to be annoying out of the box. Poor font handling - Most fonts couldn’t do btop or astronvim properly, and yes I could probably install fonts, but the ones it had should have worked. None of the default themes were good for dark background (for me anyway) and yes, I’m sure I could spend time tuning it to my needs. But at £45, this is very expensive and I’m certainly not going to pay a subscription. I found other SSH clients to be less annoying out of the box, and much cheaper, even if they didn’t have all the bells and whistles.

Nice app with excellent features, but it’s disappointing that the lifetime price has more than doubled in less than 2 months. I was planning to take advantage of the lifetime offer, but this steep price hike has put me off. A real pity.

Yeah it looks nice ‘n all but it’s aggressive on the ads before I’ve even tried it for an hour, and I’m sorry but while termius has one issue I hate (its mouse wheel scrolling is the wrong way around), it at least gives you your whole ipad screen for the terminal. I don’t know what Secure Shellfish thinks I’m going to do with 3 lines wasted with a fat white menu bar hanging around the whole time.

Switched to this from prompt. Haven’t looked back

Simply outstanding little app. I manage a handful or raspberry pi devices and some servers at work. SecureShellfish’s is powerful yet simple to use and means I can get things done on the move. Anders has really nailed the perfect iOS Terminal app

The feature list of this app is insane. And importantly they work! The experience of being able to drag the cursor around the screen and have it translated to cursor key, keypresses to move the cursor within the terminal is flawless. With the ability to select a file name from a text listing and for the app to recognise it as a file and provide file transfer options is incredible. If this was also available in a desktop environment I’d buy that version as well. (Hint hint). Any questions I’ve had have been responded to promptly. In short best mobile ssh experience I’ve ever had.

The perfect tool for an old UNIX pro.

Quality.
