Lightning fast SSH terminal with remote file access. No other app fuses your SSH servers and iOS devices as well as Secure ShellFish. Tap Get and see for yourself. Terminal supports standard text editing gestures for selection, scrolling and copy/paste as well as custom gestures to send arrow keys and tabulator making shell entry and full screen editing with vim or emacs delightful. Bar above the keyboard makes it easy to type special keys and insert snippets. Select and drag filenames out of the terminal as actual files and drag files from other apps into the terminal to upload. Use built-in tmux support to persist terminal sessions if you lose Internet access, pick existing sessions with thumbnails and Handoff sessions between devices. Server file system is available in the Files app and recently accessed files and directories are cached to make them available when offline. Use apps like Textastic and iA Writer for a native editing experience working on your remote server files. Upload files or entire directories from the share sheet with minimal friction as the last destination directory for each kind of file is remembered or automate file transfers in the Shortcuts app. Connect to your Mac, Synology NAS and any other SSH server or create new Digital Ocean droplets right from the app. Secure ShellFish is useful as a free app and paying pro users can disable ads in the terminal, upload through the Files app and configure unlimited number of servers.

Last update:
It is now possible to customize buttons on the Fn keyboard. All keyboard bar + Fn customizations are stored in presets that you can switch between by long-pressing the Fn key. Presets can be managed in Settings > Keyboard Presets, where you can also export and import them to share with others. Enable a new tmux native mode with regular scrolling and no tmux bar in Settings > Advanced or from the context menu of the session picker button. Shell Integration install looks for Claude Code, Codex CLI or OpenCode installations and asks to install hooks to use notifications or Live Activity for questions from agent. Improved the logic that determines when a terminal should receive keyboard focus after returning to it. Fixed an issue where the current directory was not communicated correctly from the shell to the app on some servers, which could cause Drag-and-Drop or Paste uploads to fail. This fix requires reinstalling Shell Integration. Nicer tmux session picker. Fixed an issue where the Files app failed to download files whose names contain diacritics due to Unicode normalization differences between the server and ShellFish.
