Probe
SSH for iPhone
A simple SSH client for people who just want to get the job done. No accounts, no telemetry, no clutter.
Open it, tap a host, get a shell. That's it.
What's in the box
- A host has more than one addressProbe lets you list a few (LAN, public, whatever) and picks a sensible one based on the network you're on.
- Remembers what workedOnce an endpoint connects on a given network, that's the one it tries first next time.
- Warns when something's offLike trying to reach a private address with no VPN up.
- Pins host fingerprintsIf a server's identity changes, you decide whether to trust it.
- Keys live in the iOS KeychainThey don't leave your device.
- A keyboard row that actually worksCtrl, Esc, Tab, arrows, and pipes where your thumb can reach them.
What's not in the box
No accounts. No tracking. No ads. No syncing. No “pro” tier. Your hosts and keys stay on your phone.
Requirements
