a+ Terminal

A privacy-first iOS SSH terminal built for working from a phone — tmux-aware ergonomics, on-device dictation, and Live Activities, with zero data collection.

Swift SwiftUI iOS SSH tmux Live Activities

Overview

a+ Terminal is a native iOS SSH client designed around real terminal workflows rather than a generic console. It connects to remote machines over SSH and stays usable on a small screen — tmux integration, fast reconnects, and a keyboard built for shell work make it practical to run long sessions from a phone.

Key Features

  • Native SSH client with persistent, reconnect-friendly sessions
  • tmux-aware ergonomics tuned for terminal multiplexing on mobile
  • On-device dictation for entering commands by voice
  • Live Activities surfacing session state on the lock screen
  • Privacy-first by design — zero data collection and no analytics

Architecture

Built natively in Swift and SwiftUI for iOS. The app handles SSH connections directly on device, keeping all session data local. Dictation runs on-device, and Live Activities integrate with the system to show session status without sending anything to a server.
