vSSH App Reviews

This app is really easy to use and is REALLY great, works 100% of time, no crash.

Excellent app. Supports private key authentication. The only fault is that showing/hiding the keyboard resizes the terminal, triggering a redraw for full screen terminal programs.

I especially love the Dropbox sync across iOS and OS X. Works great

Im not a heavy user, but this app has done everything I need very well so far!

much interface such interface many feature better than presliced bread

Its very powerful tool!!

Useful in a pinch on the go. Wish the iPad version wasnt a separate app.

As above. Usefull and averyday app for unix user.

Best ssh client in AppStore

Good usability: scroll, history, many necessary keys.

Love the app. Just wanted to ask for a couple things, possibly just put into the pay version. Great update! Everything i asked for! One preference, maybe if the autohide extra keyboard is turned off the bottom showing line is not covered by it. Cant see what Im going left and right with unless I put the arrows in the bottom row. When pressing the more button it would be nice if an extra vertical bar popped up to do the arrows. I constantly over shoot pressing up and down. And sometimes press up trying to go left to adjust a command, which just changes dialog on line to previous. Also with the occasional lag buttons dont appear on the screen which is to be expected, but is fine for normal keys because of the enlarged key shown after pressing. If the extra buttons could try to mirror this functionality locally so you could get confirmation that you are probably on track. Lastly i didnt see a meta key. I know escape can be pressed and then press the meta but im not sure if it worked. Though it might. But again im not sure when i pressed it because only the control goes blue, since that means hold. Also a back slash would be nice in the more bar, though not necessary. Oh and if you could implement apples scroll to hide keyboard thatd be cool. Only when swiping up away from current input, like in imessage.

This is a great working app, it had some issues at first, but they were fixed.

This app is mostly great. Love the fact that I dont have to transport my SSH key over an insecure channel. The keyboard makes sense. Simple and intuitive history lookup, cursor positioning, buffer scrolling. Glad I paid for the app. One feature is missing: no ability to keep SSH key unlocked in memory for a period of time. I connect multiple servers at once and it is a paint to have to type in the passphrase every time, yet I do not want to just store the passphrase in the app. Otherwise, great app. Keep up the good work!

Like this app a lot. I tested 5 or 6 other SSH apps in the store looking for one that would satisfy this simple use case: I have a router at home that I want to connect to securely (public key auth -- no passwords!!) and fire off commands to other machines on the network from there e.g. send WOL packets, run scripts etc. None of the other apps worked right. Either they didnt support running commands, didnt support public keys, or were buggy or near impossible to use. vSSH so far has been stable, and getting it to connect to my router and fire off commands in one step was fairly easy to set up! I hope a future version supports an option to "auto-close" the session window upon a disconnect. And "mosh" protocol support would be a very nice addition, that would make it 5-stars! Hope the devs continue to improve this app!

Does exactly what I want it to do.

Does exactly everything I need when I ssh into my servers, thank you!!!

Good

Works perfect. A slightly better user interface would be nice. For instance a pinch zoom would be nice, but I understand it would be difficult.

Its completely based on PuTTY. It works great, and its 6 bucks less than iSSH. Superb interface too. Bottom line, GET IT.

Always works when you need it too. Fast, and has a great UI. Completely recommend it.
