SSH terminal for iPhone and iPad.
Connect to your servers, scroll through tmux sessions, run commands. Native Swift SSH stack. Free.
We needed to check on coding agents running on a headless Mac Mini. Every SSH app we tried either charged a subscription or got the basics wrong. Keyboards that covered the terminal. tmux scrolling that didn't work. Sessions that died when you switched apps. So we built one that works.
What it does
Single finger swipe through tmux history. No copy-mode, no arrow keys. Just swipe.
One tap to dismiss, one tap back. Terminal resizes around it so you can always see what you're typing.
Switch apps, come back, still connected. Auto-reconnect if the connection drops.
Open servers in tabs. Green and red dots show what's alive. Switch without disconnecting.
Esc, Ctrl-C, arrows, Tab, tmux detach. Scrollable toolbar, always visible.
Saved connections sync across your devices via iCloud. Set up once.
No web views, no Electron. Direct connection with terminal rendering that keeps up.
Credentials stored in iOS Keychain. No third-party servers, no vendor accounts.
Rotate for a wider terminal. Connection stays alive, layout adapts.
Works with
Headless Mac Mini, home server, VPS, Raspberry Pi. If it runs SSH, ShellDrop connects to it. We built it for managing AI coding agents in tmux, but it's just an SSH terminal. Use it for whatever.
iPhone
Full terminal in your pocket. Landscape for a wider view. Scroll, paste, detach on the go.
iPad
More room to work. Same app, same connections, synced via iCloud.
Need Mosh?
Switch WiFi, hop to cellular, reopen an hour later. Your terminal is where you left it.
MoshDrop is the companion app. Native C++ mosh client, wire-compatible with standard mosh-server. Same approach. Also free.
Get MoshDrop on the App Store
