WebSSH - SysAdmin Tools

Especially in combination with the larger size screens available on the Plus models, this app makes SSH from the iPhone a pleasant reality. Highly recommended for those times you need to quickly login from the bar and don’t feel like pulling out the laptop and balancing it while worrying about spilling a drink on the keyboard.

I have tried using a few ssh clients for IOS and this one, so far, is the best I've found. It needs work however. 1) if I run a while true loop in the foregrounded term, the session remains usable; put the same into the background and with ~60 seconds a notification is popped about terminating. The issue I have with this is that no background ssh session should EVER terminate with an active process running in it. 2) the screen freezes - this drives me NUTS! There is no evident reason for this as it happens in an unpredictable manner. e.g. Sometimes I can flip to Safari to read something online for 2 minutes, return to WebSSH and I'm good to go, while other times I can flip to Safari for 10 seconds, return to the term and keyboard input is blocked. Sometimes I can hit Ctrl-C to clear the condition and, most often, there is nothing to do but shutdown the session. 3) This app corrupts the active session *frequently* and leaves behind it an open tty on the remote server. If I knew of anything better I'd dump Pro in a second - unfortunately it seems this is the most advanced ssh client on the App Store at this time. Meh.

Unfortunately I paid for the app before finding out it’s basically been abandoned. It’s too bad, it’s a mostly good app. The copy and paste is very wonky: It pulls up the text in an overlay where you actually do your select and copy, which adds an extra two steps to a simple copy and paste. Also, there’s a problem where after said copy, the input is frozen and the session needs to be quit and restarted. The only workaround I’ve found is to always use screen or tmux for every session or fear losing my work. With some quick bug fixes it would be a really great terminal app again.

I wish it could run Elliptic Curve Encryption keys on it and I REALLY wish that I could copy and paste text in the middle of files without it corrupting what is already there, and I have a minor gripe about the position of the arrow pad, but it beats everything else I’ve tried! Takes a new RSA key like a champ and I love having multiple sessions and like it’s login security that makes you use your finger to refresh the screen every time it comes back from being a background process (if you use it you’ll know what I mean)

There are adapting iOS13 plan? Use occasionally crash when linking ssh! We are hoping to participate in the test, but do not know how to contact you! Developers want to take the time to reply to it! !
