User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's comprehensive SSH/SFTP/FTP/Telnet support with a solid, organized UI and handy features like built-in text editing. However, multiple reviews note instability with file transfers, session disconnections, and cursor positioning problems. The app is no longer actively updated, causing compatibility problems on newer Android versions. Users desire better customization such as host reordering and color control, plus improvements in background transfer and error handling for a smoother experience.
Pros
  • Provides great SSH, SFTP, FTP, and Telnet connectivity in one app.
  • User interface is intuitive, organized with color coding for easier management of hosts.
  • Includes useful features like built-in text editor and additional keyboard keys (like Esc) above Android keyboard.
  • Supports IPv6 and works well for remote access to servers and devices such as Raspberry Pi.
  • Reliable basic functionality for connecting and transferring files when internet is stable.
Cons
  • App is not actively maintained and has compatibility issues with newer Android versions.
  • File transfers over SFTP/FTP can be unreliable, often failing or timing out, and lack background operation support.
  • Cursor positioning in terminal can be off, making text editing (e.g., with Emacs) difficult.
  • Session management issues including premature disconnects when losing internet or switching away from app, and multiple connections opened on device rotation.
  • Limited customization options (e.g., inability to reorder hosts, lack of control over background/text colors, missing multi-file operations and FTP file management features).

It actually works right. And it did it on the first try! :-D

I had written this app off because it hadn't been updated in years and there were some issues with crashing and UI quirks. Now I see it's come back from the dead with a new icon!
