About Pling: SSH Client & SFTP
Your servers, in your pocket. Pling is the most powerful SSH client and push notification platform for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Spin up a terminal in seconds, or say what you want done and let Pling run the session.
COMMAND AGENT
Describe a task in plain English and Pling runs the SSH session for you: planning, dispatching, reading output, and adjusting as it goes. It asks on real decisions and stops before anything destructive. Launch it from the new Spotlight launcher or any terminal.
SSH & TERMINAL
A real terminal: full ANSI color, true emulation, and good-looking themes. Connect with SSH or Mosh. Mosh keeps sessions alive through subway tunnels and cellular handoffs. Jump hosts, SSH config import, and live port forwarding you can edit mid-session. Plus CRT mode, keyboard reordering, and saved snippets.
REMOTE DESKTOP
Stream and control a host's full graphical desktop in-app over hardware-accelerated H.264. Move the pointer, type on-screen, pinch to zoom, and push resolution, frame rate, and bitrate to your link's limit.
PUSH NOTIFICATIONS
Hook up servers, scripts, and CI with one HTTP request. Custom channels, low-to-critical priorities, and action URLs to a runbook. End-to-end encrypted, delivered even when Pling is closed.
AI COMMANDS & VOICE
Forget a flag? Generate commands with AI tuned to your setup, or speak them on-device with Whisper or Apple Speech. Add photos or files for context.
SERVER MONITORING
Watch CPU, memory, disk, network, and uptime live via our agent or over SSH. Set thresholds and get pushed the moment a box runs hot.
SFTP FILE MANAGER
Browse, upload, download, and edit remote files natively. Preview images, PDFs, and docs. Search the directory and multi-select for bulk delete or downloads.
WAKE ON LAN
Power on a sleeping machine remotely. Pling reads the MAC from an SSH session or takes yours, then sends the magic packet directly or via another host, with live status until it wakes.
SESSIONS & HOSTS
Every host card shows live reachability, plus a badge when the Pling agent is installed. Split-pane terminals on iPad, session recording, and live sharing to pair in real time. Tap a host with a tmux or zellij session running and Pling jumps back in instead of duplicating it. Save a Workspace; hosts plus their sessions; and restore it on any synced device. Batch commands and schedule recurring jobs 24/7.
SECURITY
Keys and credentials live in Keychain, behind Face ID or Touch ID, with auto-lock, host verification, and fingerprint management. Optionally sync SSH keys and passwords via your Pling Account, with an audit screen for what syncs and what stays local.
YOUR PLING ACCOUNT
Sign in with Apple or Google to your own account; link both or merge duplicates. Your hosts, keys, and settings sync across devices, and you can now use Pling on the web.
APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS & SIRI
Triage notifications, check status, and run commands from your wrist with iPhone nearby; complications show unread counts. Pin hosts to

Latest updates
2.5.10
Terminal Links
Links in your terminal are now a tap away, including output from Claude Code and Codex. Open them straight from the session, with support for tmux and Zellij too, so you can follow a link without copying it out first.
Connection Previews
Your connection cards now show the full terminal preview, keeping text at the top and bottom in view. Home updates as soon as a new preview is available, without the previous refresh delay.
Mac Agent Status
Pling now uses the newest Mac agent status when a host appears under more than one name. Older reports can no longer overwrite newer permission and readiness information.
Polish
Connection errors now give clearer guidance when an SSH hostname cannot be found, including Tailscale names and jump hosts. Small copy improvements throughout the app make messages easier to read, with cleaner punctuation across supported languages.
