Libterm App Reviews

This is a great terminal app for iOS. New or existing textfiles can be edited with the edit command which is nice. Is there any way that a new color scheme can be incorporated into the app like amber on a black background? Thanks.

I use this app to edit and test python scripts from iCloud Drive. For that, it works amazingly. I use this to run them and external editors like Textastic to edit the code. The only very significant downside that this app has is that it doesn’t support keyboards on the iPad that well. For example if you could use up arrow to cycle through command history or use tab to auto complete this app would easily be 5/5 stars. It adds a much needed application to iOS that makes my iPad even closer to being able to replace my MacBook Pro.

It says you can code Python 2.7 scripts, but there is no editor so you cannot.

When I tried to use SSH, it tried to sell me an app. Read some reviews to make sure it will do what you want it to. Or find a different one. There are enough terminal apps in the App Store. Uninstalled.

misleading that this will not allow you to actually ssh without another $3 app

This is a great app. But I can’t seem to read 3rd party files. Second problem is I don’t know how to be connected. And I have a question: what is exactly ‘help.pub’? Thanks!

There is no operators!!! Just a couple commands. Only useful thing is ping. Google cloud console app has an actual terminal on a server for free

I’m just getting my feet wet, so I know a lot more is possible. I’d consider this indispensable for anybody who wants to play with Python locally on the run. In the metro I might have insecure servers, or no internet connection at all. Besides, who works on a phone and wants it to be useless without an internet connection? This little app has tremendous potential: The more users it could get, the better it could be. Excuse me, but I envision an army of user-developers, contributing to an environment that is like a hand-held (fully-functional) computer. I’d love that.

There’s not much included with this, other than ping and basic Whois information available. Even something as basic as an ssh client/shell results in nothing more than a prompt to pay for something else that actually accomplishes something. Not terrible, but there’s just not much here.

its nice but i cant install apt and apt-get packages

There is a tremendous amount of work accomplished in the portfolio of apps this belongs to. This app is the bridging of a gap for iOS that is unmatched. If you know anything about the ways of the terminal, you will be very pleased.

If you want a local command line, this is the bomb. Some rough edges because iOS != Unix, but the developer is on top of it.
