New adverts are just way too intrusive and opting out of sharing my data is too difficult.

Hey, it's an ad viewer. This used to be an ssh app at one point

Currently it cuts off my screen on top and on the bottom. Cannot see the text I am typing just the very top of the letters. I have a pixel 7 pro. It used to be fine. 2nd issue Forced ads Everytime you switch to another app and back to check for commands. Plus it ends the connection because of the ad. Thought about going premium but the way the app has changed I am not sure the right mentality is behind the app.

Felt like i was back in 1980, but in some scifi movie of the era. I was expecting to see marty mcfly, but he never showed up. Maybe next time i will put the right coordinates into the flux capacitor, and help out the doc. maybe that will bring it into the modern world

Great whenever you get a server crash and need an easy restart

In case you're looking for PuTTY, this is definately not the original to begin with. Secondly, the data exchange responsiveness is the same as a 300bps Bulletin Board System. Last, the way too intrusive full-screen advertisements make the app all but a productive and enjoyable tool to work with half a world away. Bottom line: Not recommended at this point of time.

Uninstalled almost immediately. The SSH works just fine, but the ads are intrusive and super annoying. Every time you exit the app and come back in, a full banner ad pops up, and I accidentally clicked it more than once. I installed Termius instead. No such issues.

Lacks the most basic of functionality you need to navigate common ssh interfaces without a keyboard attached. And cannot even display more advanced interfaces like raspi-config.

Works but UI unreadable. All the buttons on my screen have white text on a light grey background. Could use the app but with straining my eyes. Had to Uninstall
