Markdown SSH Terminal
SSH with live Markdown
$4.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Now with tabs: run up to 4 SSH sessions at once. A real terminal plus a live Markdown pane that renders your server's output cleanly instead of as raw text.
Markdown SSH Terminal connects to your servers over SSH and gives you two views of the same session: a full, standards-compliant terminal, and a second pane that renders the output as formatted Markdown in real time. Reports, formatted command output, and replies from server-side tools read cleanly instead of scrolling past as raw text.
A terminal that actually works on iPhone
Real xterm-compatible emulation (xterm.js): ANSI colors, cursor control, scrollback, box-drawing, and interactive TUI apps like vim and htop. A single control-key bar above the keyboard adds the keys iOS leaves out — Esc, Tab, arrow keys, and Ctrl-C/D/Z — so tab-completion, command history, and interrupts all behave the way you expect.
Up to four sessions in tabs
Open as many as four SSH connections at once and switch between them instantly. Each tab keeps its full scrollback, so moving between servers never loses your place.
The Markdown preview pane
As your server emits output, the preview renders it live as formatted Markdown: headings, bold, lists, tables, and code blocks. Output turns are visually separated so long sessions stay readable. If your servers run tools or models that speak Markdown, this is the difference between squinting and reading.
Lay it out your way
Drag the divider to switch between terminal-only, an even split, or preview-only — whatever the task needs.
Built for managing real servers
Tabbed sessions — up to four connections at once
Saved hosts so your connections are one tap away
Passwords stored in the iOS Keychain
Host-key pinning (trust-on-first-use) that warns you if a server's key ever changes

Copy or save the full session transcript to the clipboard
Native and fast
Built entirely in Swift and SwiftUI for iPhone.
Who it's for
Developers, sysadmins, DevOps engineers, homelab and self-hosting enthusiasts, and anyone who manages servers from their phone — especially if your servers emit Markdown-formatted output you'd rather read than parse.
Straight about what it does
Markdown SSH Terminal connects to standard SSH servers you supply, using password authentication and host-key pinning. It focuses on doing that workflow well: a fast terminal with a live Markdown preview, now across up to four tabbed sessions.
