Now with hardware security key login (YubiKey/FIDO2 over NFC) and SSH agent forwarding. A local-first SSH, Mosh & SFTP client - no account, no cloud, no subscription. Conduit is a local-first SSH, Mosh, and SFTP client for iPhone. It is built for people who need to reach real machines from a phone without creating an account, syncing credentials through a service, or paying a subscription just to open a shell. Use Conduit to connect to your own servers, workstations, homelab machines, VPS instances, and development environments from a mobile terminal. Features: • SSH terminal sessions • Password, private key, and hardware security key (FIDO2) authentication • Hardware security key auth over NFC, tested with YubiKey • SSH agent forwarding to reach further hosts from a machine you connect to • Experimental Mosh roaming for unreliable mobile networks • SFTP file browsing and export • Saved machine profiles with tags and search • Local credential and trusted host key storage • Trusted host key prompts and key management • Optional app lock with device authentication • Tabbed terminal workspace • Mobile-friendly modifier, navigation, and function keys • Fullscreen terminal mode • Built-in terminal themes With SSH agent forwarding, a host you connect to can use your key to authenticate onward to other machines, without copying private keys to the server. Forwarded hardware keys stay protected: every onward signature still requires your PIN and a physical tap. Conduit does not require a Conduit account and does not use a Conduit sync service. Saved connection profiles, credentials, and trusted host keys are stored on your device using platform secure storage. Conduit is free and open-source software licensed under the Apache License 2.0. Source code is available at github.com/gwitko/Conduit. Mosh requires mosh-server on the remote host and reachable UDP ports. Predictive echo is marked as experimental.

Ratings & Reviews

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

New in this version: • Hardware security key authentication - connect using a FIDO2 key such as a YubiKey over NFC. PIN-protected keys are fully supported. • SSH agent forwarding - let a machine you connect to use your key to authenticate onward to other hosts, without copying private keys to the server. Enable it per host with the new Forward agent toggle. Forwarded hardware keys still require your PIN for every onward signature.
