iPhone
EasyTunnel is the iPhone-first SSH client for developers and sysadmins — a full terminal, local port forwarding you can actually browse in-app, an SFTP file manager, and a code editor, in one beautifully simple app. No accounts, no subscription, nothing leaves your device.
THE DEMO THAT NEEDS A REAL PHONE
Built a web app that uses the microphone or camera? Forward its port and open localhost right inside EasyTunnel's browser. Because it's genuine loopback, iOS treats it as a secure context — so getUserMedia just works. The mic goes live, the camera turns on. No certificates, no third-party tunnels, no drama.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Full SSH terminal — a real interactive terminal with an on-screen key bar for esc, ctrl, and arrows. Light or dark, following your theme.
• Local port forwarding — set up ssh -L forwards and open several at once. Reach services behind your SSH host as if they were local.
• Built-in web view — browse a forwarded app at localhost without leaving EasyTunnel. Camera and microphone work, because loopback is a secure context.
• SFTP file browser — browse, upload, download, rename, create folders, and delete remote files. Preview text and images with pinch-to-zoom.
• Code editor — edit remote files with syntax highlighting and a Markdown preview, then save straight back over SFTP.
• Flexible auth — password, private key (ed25519 & ECDSA), or keyboard-interactive for 2FA and one-time codes, with a reusable key library.
• Host-key pinning — trust-on-first-use pins each server's key and warns you if it ever changes, protecting against man-in-the-middle attacks.
• Sessions that survive — quick app-switches stay connected, sessions auto-reconnect when you return, and idle sessions can bow out on their own.
• Live Activity — keep an eye on the live session and its forwards from your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.
• Quick Connect — fire off an ad-hoc session without saving anything, or keep tunnels on a dashboard that shows what's live at a glance.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts. No telemetry. Credentials live in the iOS Keychain and never leave your device. One-time purchase — no subscription.
EasyTunnel keeps SSH, port forwarding, and file transfer simple on iPhone.
This update is all about reliability:
• Dropped connections are now detected mid-session — you'll see a clear "Session Ended" overlay instead of a frozen shell, and the Session Deck shows connecting and reconnecting states.
• Backgrounded sessions are held for the full time iOS grants, and your forwarded ports stay usable during the hold.
• Traffic through forwarded ports now counts as activity, so busy tunnels aren't cut off by the idle auto-disconnect.
• SFTP fixes: renaming files at the top level of the server works correctly, browsing no longer leaks a connection each time you open Files, and it fails fast instead of hanging if the session has closed.
• The Live Activity now ends on every disconnect path and no longer shows your connection twice.
• Fixed output from a previous session briefly appearing in a new session's terminal.
• Cancelling a login prompt is now reported as cancelled instead of "wrong credentials."
