Compute – SSH and Forwarding

An SSH client with port forwarding for reaching authorized Macs or servers from a mobile device.

Our take

Consider for a straightforward remote terminal workflow

A tunnel can expose an already configured remote development service to the client without copying the whole project.

Keep in mind: The remote server does the work; this is not hosting included. Availability and authentication depend on the server and network.

What you can do

  • Open supported SSH connections
  • Use eligible key authentication
  • Create supported forwarding connections
  • Reach an existing remote development service

Good for

  • Administrators or developers authorized to use the destination.

Consider alternatives for

  • People expecting free cloud compute or automatic setup of every remote environment.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.0.
  • The remote server does the work; this is not hosting included. Availability and authentication depend on the server and network.

Privacy & permissions

Server passwords, keys and forwarded services are sensitive. Use least-necessary access and protect the device.
