About ShadowTerm ssh & mosh Terminal
ShadowTerm is a full-featured SSH and Mosh terminal built natively
for iPhone and iPad. Manage servers, debug code, and keep tmux & herdr
sessions alive across networks with a desktop-quality terminal and a
keyboard built for the work.
KEY FEATURES
Connections that survive
- SSH with passwords, SSH keys, and certificate authentication
- Mosh for roaming connections that survive network drops, app backgrounding, and device sleep
- Smart port forwarding (local and remote) for secure tunneling
- Auto-connect on launch and geofence-based auto-connection
- Background connection monitoring with notifications and Live Activities
Terminal experience
- Native SwiftTerm with xterm-256 color compatibility
- First-class tmux, GNU screen, and Herdr support with automatic detection
- Full mouse-mode support for mouse-driven TUIs: tap to left-click, long-press to right-click, and scroll to navigate
- Multi-window on iPadOS: open Terminal, Files, Monitor, Markdown, or Text Editor in their own windows
- Five terminal themes: Midnight, Oceanic, Solar, Neon, Classic
- Pinch-to-zoom font sizing and live cursor-tracked scrolling
Custom keyboards built for terminals
- 15 built-in layouts: Tmux, Herdr, Screen, Files, OpenCode, Productivity, DevOps, Git, Kubernetes, Python, Node.js, macOS, Database, Security, Terminal Classic
- Fully editable: drag-and-drop keys, custom snippets, sticky modifiers
- Adjustable double-tap window for Ctrl/Alt locking, with an interactive test pad in Settings
- Mic input bar for voice-to-text command entry
- Smart keyboard switching when tmux or Herdr is detected
SFTP and files
- Full SFTP browser with multi-select and bulk copy/move/delete
- Paste-to-upload: paste a screenshot, image, or file into the input bar to SFTP it straight to your server
- Built-in text editor with syntax highlighting and undo/redo
- Live Markdown preview
- Transfer progress HUD with tap-to-copy destination paths

AI command helper

- Safety validator blocks fork bombs, rm -rf /, and similar dangerous patterns before they ever leave your device
Claude Code and AI control
- ntfy.sh-based notification polling for Claude Code permission requests
- Approve or deny remote Claude Code actions from your iPhone or iPad
- Session templates for repeatable workflows
- Built-in MCP server: let Claude Code and other MCP clients open sessions, run commands, read output, and check host status ... with every risky command approval-gated, plus per-host always-allow for machines you trust
- AI can even author and edit your custom keyboards over MCP
Live server monitoring
- CPU, memory, network, filesystem, disk I/O
- Nvidia GPU monitoring when available
- Reads /proc directly for accurate, low-overhead metrics
