Terminal‪#‬ 4+

This tool is a god-send to me. It makes it an actual pleasure to use an iPad and keyboard for coding on and managing all my headless raspberry pi’s.

I’m a retired unix system engineer and I spent decades using simple ascii terminals so I’m very used to it. I also live off grid in a tiny home without the desk real estate or electrical power to use full sized monitors and gui’s at all hours of the day and night the way I like to do. (not to mention as a developer I really loved CDE on Solaris and despise Gnome on anything) So it’s easy for me to live with a simple terminal.

Since 2019 I used a different ssh tool for iPad and it’s limitations were annoying at first and became crippling over time, the fee to remove them was WAY too high for personal use. My experience has left me actually hating that tool and the idiots that market it.

THIS tool otoh seems to have no limitations at all:

- it supports multiple instances via split-screen

- it holds sessions open no matter how long I’m off in a browser doing something else. Only when the iPad auto-lock activates do your sessions get terminated.

- it allows multiple sessions to the same or different systems, switching between them is possibly a little clunky but I just got this so I have to acclimate.

After five years of being stuck with a crippled and crippling tool I am beyond delighted to find this one.

I’ve been using this app for quite sometime and been very satisfied on how it operates! I use it daily to connect to my server back home to edit a couple config files or check out logs. There are so many terminal apps on the App Store but you have to pay a subscription to have it, which Is a complete joke! Terminal# doesn’t require a subscription to SSH to your server, that’s why I love this app and it’s my go to! I’ve been recommending this app to all my friends and a couple of companies who I worked for to get this app. I

I would definitely donate a cup of coffee of worth to the creator of this app for doing a great job!

Thank you so much!

Most of the one star ratings are because the app lacked the ability to type special characters. This is no longer an issue.

The required password field is strange though.
