Secure ShellFish vs Termius

Secure ShellFish is an SSH and SFTP client for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. It provides a native terminal with native rendering, file-aware drag-and-drop, OSC 52 clipboard synchronization, and inline link detection. Connections expose remote files through the iOS Files app and Mac Finder, where files can be browsed, edited in place, and have permissions changed. Authentication supports passwords, public keys, two-factor authentication, ED25519, ECDSA and RSA keys, YubiKeys, Secure Enclave keys, and short-lived SSH certificates. Server configurations synchronize through iCloud Keychain, and snippets synchronize through iCloud. Shortcuts can upload or download files, list directories, run commands, back up data, or open a terminal. It can launch and destroy Linux virtual machines on DigitalOcean or Hetzner Cloud. Pro features add offline folders, media streaming, tmux controls, widgets, and Live Activities. The Free plan costs nothing.

Termius is an SSH client for working with infrastructure across Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and iPadOS. It supports SSH, SFTP, Telnet, Mosh, and a local terminal, alongside port and agent forwarding, jump hosts, SOCKS and HTTP proxies, and serial connections. Encrypted vaults can sync or share infrastructure data with a team, and devices keep encrypted local copies for offline use. Listed integrations include AWS, DigitalOcean, Azure, API bridge, Ansible, and Vanta. Termius says data is encrypted on the device before it leaves and that it cannot access plaintext. Starter is free for commercial use and includes a local vault, SSH and SFTP, AI-powered autocomplete, and port forwarding. Pro costs $10 per month when paid annually. Team costs $20 per month per seat and Business $30 per month per seat, both when paid annually. Enterprise pricing is custom. Enterprise features include SAML SSO, 2FA enforcement, granular access control, and listed support services.
