Features & Capabilities

SSH Tunnel routes device traffic through your own SSH server using a system-wide VPN or local SOCKS5 proxy. The VPN engine runs in the background, reconnects automatically, supports On Demand configurations, and works across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

The app includes dynamic and local port forwarding, PAC file support, password, private key, and 2FA authentication, OpenSSH and PuTTY key formats, host fingerprint verification, transfer statistics, connection logs, and an iOS in-app browser. Protect access with a passcode or Face ID, use dark mode, and run multiple proxy tunnels without ads, subscriptions, accounts, or third-party servers.

User Reviews

Users praise SSH Tunnel as a straightforward, easy-to-set-up SSH tunneling tool that handles port forwarding and is very useful for remote access tasks. The built-in browser is convenient for using the tunnel within the app. However, a common drawback is Apple’s background restrictions: the tunnel often won’t stay open in the background and disconnects when switching apps or locking the device. Many reviews also cite a lack of timely updates for newer iOS versions (notably iOS 16+), causing compatibility issues. Overall, it's a valuable utility hampered by background/compatibility and maintenance concerns.

Pros

Easy to set up and use for SSH tunneling and port forwarding.
Extremely useful for real-world tasks (remote access, streaming, RDP) and saves trips.
Built-in browser is a handy feature that helps use the tunnel within the app.
No-frills, straightforward SSH tunnel tool that does exactly what it promises.

Cons

Cannot run in background due to Apple restrictions; tunnel closes when switching apps or locking the screen.
Lacks updates for newer iOS versions (notably iOS 16+) and may have compatibility issues.
Occasional reliability issues where the connection drops or is slow when not in the foreground.
In-app browser limitations or suboptimal experience for broader browsing.

Приложение не работает в фоновом режиме, оно просто теряет всякий смысл

by Ni*****, 2026-04-08

Это просто отстой, когда приложение сворачиваешь и оно выдает предупреждение, что не работает в фоне. Весь смысл приложения пропадает. Не покупайте его!
