What you get

You can manage remote computers through a terminal or their desktop.

With Plex Term, you can maintain a remote server, work with a virtual machine, or access your home computer without sitting in front of it. You get two ways to work: run commands over SSH on Linux, Unix, and other SSH-enabled devices, or use VNC to see and control a remote desktop. That lets you choose between command-line maintenance and tasks that need a graphical interface.

You can keep the same server configurations available on your Mac, iPhone, and iPad through iCloud, so you don't have to recreate each connection on every device. You can sign in with SSH keys or passwords, with Touch ID or Face ID support for convenient access. Your connection data is encrypted and stored in the system Keychain.

  • Maintain servers remotely

    You can run commands on Linux, Unix, and other SSH-enabled computers without being physically present.

  • Use a remote desktop

    You can see and control a VNC-enabled computer when your task needs a graphical interface.

  • Avoid repeated connection setup

    You can sync server configurations through iCloud and use them on your Mac, iPhone, and iPad.

  • Keep connection details protected

    Your connection data stays encrypted in the system Keychain, with support for SSH keys, passwords, and biometric access.

Best for

  • You maintain remote Linux or Unix servers
  • You need server access from both Mac and iPhone
  • You access a home computer or provide remote assistance through VNC

Skip it if

You don't need it if you only work on your own device and never connect to remote computers through SSH or VNC.
