## Description

Panic Button turns your phone into a remote control for your Linux servers.<br><br>Set up SSH connections to your servers, then create one-tap action tiles for any bash command. Restart services, check disk space, deploy code, clear caches — all with a single tap.<br><br>FEATURES<br><br>• One-Tap Execution: Tap a tile and the command runs instantly over SSH. Yellow flash = executing, green = success, red = failed.<br><br>• Dashboard of Tiles: Build your own grid of action buttons. Pick from 40+ command templates or write custom bash commands.<br><br>• Real-Time Output: See stdout, stderr, and exit codes in a slide-up panel after each command.<br><br>• Command Templates: Pre-built templates across 8 categories — System, Services, Docker, Networking, Disk, Security, Updates, and Performance.<br><br>• Multiple Servers: Connect to as many Linux machines as you need (Pro). Works with any server running SSH — Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Arch, CentOS, Raspberry Pi.<br><br>• Secure by Design: SSH credentials are stored in the Android Keystore with hardware-backed encryption. No data leaves your device except the SSH connection to your server. Zero analytics, zero telemetry, zero tracking.<br><br>• No Agents Required: Uses standard SSH — no software to install on your servers. If you can SSH in from a terminal, Panic Button can too.<br><br>• Dark Mode: Purpose-built dark interface designed for quick glances and low-light use.<br><br>• Confirmation Guards: Flag dangerous commands (reboot, rm, etc.) to require a confirmation tap before execution.<br><br>HOW IT WORKS<br><br>1. Add your server (IP, port, username, password or SSH key)<br>2. Create buttons mapped to bash commands<br>3. Tap to execute — see results instantly<br><br>PERFECT FOR<br><br>• Sysadmins managing remote Linux servers<br>• Homelab enthusiasts (Proxmox, TrueNAS, Docker hosts, Raspberry Pi)<br>• DevOps engineers who need quick server actions on the go<br>• Anyone tired of opening a terminal app to run the same commands<br><br>FREE vs PRO<br><br>Free: 1 server, 4 buttons — enough to get started.<br>Pro ($4.99 one-time): Unlimited servers and buttons. No subscriptions.<br><br>REQUIREMENTS<br><br>• A Linux server with SSH enabled<br>• Network connectivity to your server (same WiFi, VPN like Tailscale/ZeroTier, or port forwarding)<br><br>Panic Button does not collect any data.
