Description

Lightning fast SSH terminal with remote file access. No other app fuses your SSH servers and iOS devices as well as Secure ShellFish. Tap Get and see for yourself. Terminal supports standard text editing gestures for selection, scrolling and copy/paste as well as custom gestures to send arrow keys and tabulator making shell entry and full screen editing with vim or emacs delightful. Bar above the keyboard makes it easy to type special keys and insert snippets. Select and drag filenames out of the terminal as actual files and drag files from other apps into the terminal to upload. Use built-in tmux support to persist terminal sessions if you lose Internet access, pick existing sessions with thumbnails and Handoff sessions between devices. Server file system is available in the Files app and recently accessed files and directories are cached to make them available when offline. Use apps like Textastic and iA Writer for a native editing experience working on your remote server files. Upload files or entire directories from the share sheet with minimal friction as the last destination directory for each kind of file is remembered or automate file transfers in the Shortcuts app. Connect to your Mac, Synology NAS and any other SSH server or create new Digital Ocean droplets right from the app. Secure ShellFish is useful as a free app and paying pro users can disable ads in the terminal, upload through the Files app and configure unlimited number of servers.

    Used my SSH keys. Very useful to run Claude Code, Codex, and nvim on my Mac and Linux servers. I pair it with Tailscale.

    Really makes it possible for a linux admin to leverage their devices. I use the Files integration a lot for saving directly to my linux devices.
  • turns the ipad into a productivity machine

    I use this app all the time, to ssh to my machines. Even though I'd prefer if Apple ported XCode and the command line to iPadOS, this is the next best thing.
  • Nice application

    You can do all your work on your cell phone using this application. I am a programmer, and I can do everything on my cellphone because I can connect it to all servers using this application.
  • The best!

    Haven’t found anything better than this one at the things it sets out to do. The advertisements are unobtrusive and rare. It would be nice if the premium version wasn’t so expensive, but alas.
