Prompt 2 App Reviews

110 add

Nice SSH with no tunnel support...

Please add support for SSH tunnel. Even if it comes as a paid upgrade, I would pay some bucks for it.

Paste Issues w/iOS 9

Works great except it has a tendency of crashing when I try to paste >10-15 lines of text. I dont remember this problem with Prompt 2 on iOS 8.x so Im guessing its something related to iOS 9.

Tons of room for improvement

This SSH client isnt inoperable but lacks serious depth. Rendering is subpar at best. Most console utilities and ncurses based software render incorrectly. Using tmux with something like this is required and Prompt cant render it without repeating the toolbar. And why no one can include the Mosh protocol in an app like this is beyond me. Come on Panic! Ive always admired your software development, youve been around since the ice ages. I even owned Transmit for OS 9. Please fix this because otherwise I cant work off my new iPad Pro!

Not updated for iPad Pro or Keyboards

Its odd that a professional application like this doesnt support the iPad Pro. With the added screen real-estate and keyboard the Pro is a really nice Remote Desktop and SSH platform but Prompt 2 falls down here. The onscreen keyboard still comes up with a real keyboard plugged in and multitasking isnt well supported. Please fix this app on the single best iOS platform for it.

Love it.

Works so good on the iPad. iPad Pro support and multitasking would be great additions.

Where are the updates??

App hasnt been updated in 5 months - no new features or bug fixes... Take the money any forget about you.

You need to read this review

Id rather buy a McDouble and throw it out the window than spend even $0.99 on the App Store. Theres no logic, but I just dont like to spend money on apps. $7.99 was outrageous to me even to consider buying anything, which I understand makes no sense. So I pirated this app on Cydia for a good couple months before realizing this app is a steal at $8. Stop looking around for something better, ServerAuditor is really good too, but this app allows you to root into your iPhone if youre jail broken. And for anyone that is, you know all the terminal apps on Cydia are worthless. Do yourself a favor and buy this app, skip lunch today if you need the money.

THE ssh app!

This is THE ssh app. Beautiful, functional and effective. This is the only SSH app I keep on all my devices. Please add split-screen/multi-tasking capability for iPad Pro.

Falling behind

This app used to be so good for what the iPad can do. However, were well past the introduction of multi tasking and the iPad pro has been out for a while too. This app for its price should be leading the pack with introducing support for these new features. Actively searching for different ssh apps now.

No TextExpander support?

This is one of the best SSH/Terminal apps for iOS, period. But the lack of native TextExpander support kills me. Sure, the app has a snippets tool built in, but I cant sync that with my massive library of desktop TextExpander snippets, can I? Add TextExpander support and this is an easy 5-stars for me.

Perfect SSH tool for me

I didnt know what I was missing from iOS, but when I downloaded and used this app for the first time, I realized that this should be a mandatory tool. I love the CLI and this has already saved me time on the go. Its a must have for accessing files and managing servers.

Such a solid terminal app

Very easy to use and setup connections. Nicer than using Terminal on a Mac. Without a Bluetooth keyboard, ctrl + ... keystrokes take a little getting used to.

Great but expensive

I use it from time to time I wish it was cheaper

Yes! Tab support

Another great update from the folks at Panic.

Makes the complicated easy

Buy it now - you wont regret it.

Must have

A seriously must have app for anyone who SSHs out there. Im actually genuinely surprised that theres nothing else close to what you have in the AppStore!

Love it

Use it all the time with multiple servers. Touch ID and key based auth with sync across devices rocks.

Must have SSH client

If you need an SSH client, then this is a must-have app. Its amazing how much work you can get done on an iPad with a keyboard and cell connection. But even on the iPhone Ive been able to log in to a production server from a ferry and apply an emergency fix to a build break.

Split-Screen Multitasking and Solarized Dark Support!

I had been waiting for months for such an update to arrive. I love that I can finally use Solarized Dark and that my sessions will no longer become inactive in the background thanks to Split-Screen Multitasking. Thank you for your hard work!

Fantastic update!

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for making the iPad Pro a priority!
