CLI Files
SSH Terminal & SFTP Files
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
CLI Files puts remote file management and a full SSH terminal in one focused workspace.
Connect to your servers over SSH/SFTP, browse folders, upload and download files, preview common file types, and jump straight into a terminal when you need to get work done. It is designed for developers, operators, and AI-agent workflows.

• Record custom Ctrl, Alt, Shift, special keys, and multi-step key sequences using the phone keyboard
• Terminal font-size control, app language selection, and multiple interface themes
• Secure credential storage in the iOS Keychain
