AI Agent, Rebuilt Ask Pling to fix something on your server and the agent now works the way you would. It looks before it acts, runs the job to prove the fix worked, and finishes with what it found, what it changed and how to undo it. It knows whether it's on Linux, macOS or Windows and uses the right commands for each. Approvals You Can Trust Before anything risky runs, you see the whole command with the risky part first, along with the folder and user it runs as. Edit it before it runs, or skip it and the agent won't find another way around. Pling's own safety check catches destructive commands even when they're tucked inside a script, an editor or a database shell, and the agent asks before deleting anything that's still in use. Always in Control Stop ends exactly what the agent started and tells you if anything is still running. If it leaves vim or a log open, one tap closes it and carries on. Answer its questions with a tap and open any step to see its full output. Your saved password only ever goes to sudo on that server. tmux, zellij and mosh Your tmux and zellij sessions come back on their own after a dropped connection, however you started them. Dead connections are spotted quickly without false alarms, mosh keeps going even after the app is closed, and Nerd Font icons show up properly again.

Screen See and control your computer from your iPhone, iPad or iPhone Duo. Pling streams its screen over your own SSH connection and gives you a trackpad, a key bar with sticky modifier keys, a compose box for longer text, and a clipboard that stays in sync both ways. The picture adapts to your network by itself. Mac, Windows and Linux Screen works with Macs running Pling Agent, Windows 10 and 11 PCs, and Linux desktops, on X11 and on GNOME with Wayland. Pling follows the computer it's talking to, with Windows keys on a PC, Super on Linux, and a setup guide for each. Pair in Seconds Scan the code Pling Agent shows on your Mac to add it without typing a password. Pling checks the Mac's code with you before trusting it, and if something on the computer still needs setting up, it tells you exactly what. Made for iPhone Duo Stand your iPhone Duo half open like a laptop and Screen puts the desktop on top with the keys and trackpad below. Hold it like a book and the keys get their own page, or open it flat for the full picture.

Split View Run two sessions at once on iPad and on the unfolded iPhone Duo. Open a session in split from the tab bar, drag a tab onto the terminal, or press ⌘D. Pling lays the panes out side by side or stacked to fit your screen, and the divider snaps to thirds and halves while it shows each pane's size. Drag it past an edge to close a pane, or double-tap a pane's title to zoom it to full screen and back. Typing Goes Where You Expect The keyboard follows the pane you tap, so what you type always lands in the session you're looking at. Voice input goes to the focused pane too, and your split stays together in the tab bar and comes back after a relaunch. Keyboard Shortcuts With a hardware keyboard, ⌘D opens a new session in split, ⌘[ and ⌘] move between panes, and ⌘1 to ⌘9 jump between tabs. On iPad, every split command is also in the new Split menu. Polish Host passwords no longer go missing after your phone has been locked. New sessions open at the right terminal size, so the shell doesn't start with a stray % sign, and in windowed mode on iPad the terminal stays clear of the window controls.

Optimized for iPhone Duo

Bug fixes.

Terminal Links Links in your terminal are now a tap away, including output from Claude Code and Codex. Open them straight from the session, with support for tmux and Zellij too, so you can follow a link without copying it out first. Connection Previews Your connection cards now show the full terminal preview, keeping text at the top and bottom in view. Home updates as soon as a new preview is available, without the previous refresh delay. Mac Agent Status Pling now uses the newest Mac agent status when a host appears under more than one name. Older reports can no longer overwrite newer permission and readiness information. Polish Connection errors now give clearer guidance when an SSH hostname cannot be found, including Tailscale names and jump hosts. Small copy improvements throughout the app make messages easier to read, with cleaner punctuation across supported languages.

Agent Approvals Coding agents like Claude Code ask permission before doing anything risky, and now those requests land on your phone. Approve or deny straight from the push notification, wherever you are, and the agent carries on the moment you answer. Setup is one button on the host: Pling installs the hook over SSH and everything else is automatic. Scrolling That Feels Right One-finger scrolling now works the way your thumb expects, even inside tmux and Mosh. Flick through history while the session stays live, and the view holds its place when the keyboard appears. No more losing your spot mid-scroll. Snippet Ghost Preview Pick a snippet and see it ghosted inline at the cursor before you commit to it. What you preview is exactly what gets typed, so long commands stop being a leap of faith. Wake Proxy Wake-on-LAN packets rarely make it across networks, so Pling now hands you a portable wake command that runs through any host that can reach the sleeping machine. Run it from another server, a cron job, or a friend's laptop,cthe machine still gets its wake-up call. Polish The quick-keys bar no longer lingers on screen after returning from the background, the Hosts tab now shows the same OS icons as the rest of the app, streamed cursor flicker is gone, and Claude Code is detected reliably on hosts that have it.

Session Sharing, Upgraded Share a terminal and your link now comes with a QR code, a live viewer count, and time remaining at a glance. Viewers can raise a hand to ask for typing access and you grant it with a tap. The web viewer reconnects on its own after a blip, keeps the terminal exactly the host's size, and loads instantly with nothing fetched from third parties. Agentic Command Tell Pling what you want done in plain English and it runs the SSH session for you: planning each step, dispatching agent, reading the output, and adjusting as it goes. It asks a quick question when it hits a real decision and stops to check with you before anything destructive. Kick it off from the new Spotlight-style launcher or the Command Agent button in any terminal. Screen: Remote Desktop See and control a host's full graphical desktop right inside the app, streamed live as smooth, hardware-accelerated H.264 video. Move the pointer with precision, type on the on-screen keyboard, pinch to zoom and pan, and push the resolution, frame rate and bitrate as high as your connection allows. Wake on LAN Power on a sleeping machine without getting up. Pling can auto-detect its MAC address from an active SSH session or take one you enter by hand, then send the magic packet straight to it or bounce it through another host on the same network, with live status until it wakes. Sign in with Google Sign in with Google now sits right alongside Sign in with Apple. Link both to a single Pling account so your hosts, keys and settings follow you to every device, and merge a second account into your main one if you started out on the wrong sign-in. Your Pling Account Signing up now creates a Pling account that's yours. Sign in to Pling on the web with it today, and it's the groundwork for Pling coming to more of your devices, with your hosts, keys and settings synced across every one. Your profile photo rides along too, so it's the same wherever you sign in. Live Host Status Every host card now tells you at a glance whether it's reachable, with a live online dot and a badge when the Pling agent is installed. Offline hosts quietly hide the actions you can't use right now, so the menu only ever shows what actually works. Smarter Sessions Tap a host that already has a tmux or zellij session running and Pling jumps straight back into it instead of opening a duplicate. And when a host can't be reached, it offers to close out the dead sessions in a single tap.

Workspaces Save a named bundle of hosts and their tmux/zellij sessions, then one-tap restore the whole set on any iCloud-synced device. Pick multiple existing sessions at once, queue brand-new ones, or snapshot your currently-open sessions into a fresh workspace. Lives in Sessions, Infrastructure, right next to SSH and SFTP. iCloud Vault Sync SSH private keys and host passwords now sync across iPhone and iPad via iCloud Keychain. No more re-typing the same sudo password on every device. A new audit screen under Settings, Keys & security shows exactly what's syncing, when each category last synced, and what stays device-only by design. Face ID before enabling. Synced items disappear automatically if you sign out of iCloud. Active Sessions Carousel The connections strip at the top of the Sessions tab is now a live carousel. Each card shows a real snapshot of its running session, refreshed continuously. Double-tap to jump in, long-press for Quick Resume (a full browser with pin/unpin/open shortcuts). Pin the sessions you keep coming back to so they stay on the carousel even when their tab is closed. Port Forwarding Control Surface Add, rename, toggle and remove SSH port forwards live on a connected host without reopening the session. The Add host sheet validates ports as you type, scrolls to the rule you just touched. SFTP Improvements The file browser now has in-directory search via the standard iOS search bar, and multi-select with bulk delete and share-sheet bulk download. Chat + Terminal Attachments Drop photos and files into chat mode or the terminal composer. The new staging sheet lets you tap any thumbnail to edit it before sending, and uploads stream with a live overlay. Smoother iPad Split Terminals Drag the divider between split panes on iPad and watch them respond properly. Plus a pile of bugs squished.

HUGE SUMMER UPDATE! Tailscale Device Import Paste a Tailscale API key and import every device on your tailnet as a Pling host in one tap. Connect by MagicDNS name. This means: no IPs to remember. Your Tailscale app handles the networking, so routing just works as long as it's running. Shared tmux & zellij Sessions Pling agent now detects tmux and zellij sessions on your servers and lets you attach, share with guests, or kill them from the new Sharing hub. Pair on a long-running session from your phone without anyone having to redial in. Hetzner Cloud Server Import Drop in a Hetzner Cloud API token and pull every server (IPv4 and IPv6) into Pling as a saved host. Same one-tap flow we already have for AWS and DigitalOcean. Chat Mode A new way to talk to the AI assistant; type questions, attach screenshots from your photo library, and get answers in a conversational thread instead of one-shot commands. Toggle it per-session or set it as the default in Settings. Annotate Images Before Sending Drawing tools on every attached image. Circle the error, underline the line number, or scribble a note before you ship it to the AI or off to a teammate. Built on PencilKit so Apple Pencil and finger input both feel right. Docker Container Logs Tap any container on a host to stream its logs live. Pling finds the docker binary wherever it lives (PATH, Homebrew, /usr/local/bin) so it works on macOS, Linux, and orchestrated boxes without setup. New Snippet Packs Curated command snippets for Docker, systemd, and Adobe Campaign Classic. Enable a pack from Settings → Snippets and the commands show up in your terminal accessory bar. No copying from a wiki, no guessing flags. Enhanced Onboarding A redesigned welcome flow that walks you through hosts, push, AI, and Chat Mode on first launch, with a skip option at every step. Faster setup whether you're a first-timer or restoring from iCloud. More Languages Pling now speaks Czech, Indonesian, Thai, and Vietnamese, bringing the total to 24 languages.
