KodeBy SSH: SSH & SFTP Client

Your servers, one tap away.

KodeBy SSH is a calm, modern SSH and SFTP client for Android. A real terminal, key login set up for you and file transfer – with no account, no ads and no tracking.

A REAL TERMINAL

- Full colours and a proper terminal emulator: htop, vim, tmux and Midnight Commander look the way they should

- Esc, Tab, arrows and Home always one tap away

- Ctrl and Alt stay pressed for the next key

- Fn row for F1–F12, Page Up and Page Down

- Pinch to zoom or set the text size

SESSIONS THAT KEEP GOING

- Sessions stay connected while you use other apps, with a notification that shows how many are open

- Run several sessions and switch between them

- Reconnect into the same window if the network drops

KEY LOGIN, SET UP FOR YOU

- Make Ed25519 or RSA keys on the phone, or import yours (OpenSSH, PEM, PKCS#8, PuTTY, with or without a passphrase)

- Set up key login: the app adds the key to your server, checks that it works and switches over

- Export a key as a standard OpenSSH file when you need it on your computer

- Or remember a password, encrypted

KNOW WHO YOU'RE TALKING TO

- The first connection shows the server's fingerprint

- If a server's identity ever changes, the app stops and warns you

FILES OVER SFTP

- Browse folders, upload and download, make folders, rename and delete

- Progress and cancel for big files

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

- No account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking

- Keys and passwords are encrypted with Android's secure key store

- Optional app lock with fingerprint, face or PIN

- Backups are off, so your secrets never leave the phone

- Connects only to the servers you add

Light or dark theme, or follow your phone. Built on the open-source sshj and Bouncy Castle libraries.

KodeBy SSH is for people who already use SSH: you need your own server, a user name and a password or key.
