Another SSH Client Checks Who Is Listening

asshc.com Observed source
Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An iPhone and iPad SSH terminal that verifies server host keys before authentication, with a $4.99 one-time price.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The terminal uses host-key verification as an explicit pre-authentication step: the first connection shows a SHA256 fingerprint, later connections compare against the trusted key, and a changed key stops the session. Its server mode listens on port 2222 and exposes the app's shared folder to ordinary SSH or SFTP clients, with a six-digit run-specific passcode and writing disabled until enabled.
