v26.2.22026-08-25
- App lock: "Immediately" survives a restart, and the lock now really asks instead of accepting a recent phone unlock.
- App lock: choose fingerprint or face where the phone has both — your PIN always works.
- Host groups: the address shown is the port it will really dial, and joining a group leaves a port you chose alone.
- Key bar: herdr gets its own keys; its splits and detach are not tmux's.
- Chinese input: the candidates panel follows a moved window.
-
v26.2.12026-08-24
- Keep the screen on: a connected terminal stops dimming while you read it. On by default; off in Settings → Terminal → Session.
- Terminal font: bundled Iosevka Term is now Nerd Fonts 3.5.1, 230 more icons.
- Auto-resume: herdr counts as a multiplexer, like tmux and zellij.
- SSH: keystrokes go out unbatched; a dead address no longer stalls a multi-address host.
- Key sets: the keys-bar button opens the panel in one tap, not two.
- Terminal settings: grouped and labelled.
-
v26.2.02026-08-23
- Key sets: the keys bar has built-in presets, and you can build your own — any keys, any layout — from the new button on it.
- Tablets and 2-in-1s: pickers open beside what asked for them, the rail holds still when the keyboard opens, and ◧ gives the session the whole window.
- Terminal: a bell rings the tab title, no more screen flash; a stalled mosh link says how long, and goes green when back.
- JumpServer: no throwaway probe channel per connect — quicker, no stray sessions in its log.
-
v26.1.72026-08-21
- File transfers: SFTP is far faster on a slow link — an 8 MB upload over a 200 ms link takes 3.8 s, down from 54 s, about 14x; downloads 3.4x. Uploads use far less CPU, so less battery.
- Tablets and foldables: the terminal no longer comes up blank, or ignores a physical keyboard, after opening another host or using a floating window. Port-forward and connect-log sheets stay in the terminal.
- tmux: no more `__tc: command not found` after every prompt.
-
v26.1.62026-08-21
- Links: tap any web address in the terminal, not only ones the program marked as a link. Term shows you the address first, and hands a download to your browser.
- Two-factor and bastion logins: fewer sign-in attempts, so servers that limit them stop cutting the login short — and a failure now names the cause: the code, the password, an unsaved key, or this device's clock.
- Feedback: our replies can carry pictures and links.
- A failed connection can send us the details, if you choose to.
-
v26.1.52026-08-20
- JumpServer: you can now sign in to a JumpServer bastion (its koko SSH gateway), six-digit code included, pick a machine from its menu and work on it. Term no longer types its own setup script into that menu.
- Physical keyboards: the input method's candidate window now appears next to the cursor instead of elsewhere on screen.
- Host editor: a username containing @ — such as JumpServer's direct-login form — is no longer split in the wrong place.
-
v26.1.42026-08-19
- Two-factor: a host with a TOTP secret now signs in on its own — the app answers the verification code, including when that host is the jump host.
- Pasting: a multi-line command arrives in one piece and in order, instead of running line by line.
- PC: System info, the SFTP toolbar and the port-forward editor no longer show values frozen at the moment they opened.
- File editing: the size limit is now measured rather than guessed — on PC it matches the phone's 128 KB.
-
v26.1.32026-08-18
- Keyboard: long-press and slide to move the cursor now works, and vim and less get the arrows they expect.
- Physical keyboards: switching to a Chinese, Japanese or Korean input method works again.
- Tablets with a mouse: right-click opens the long-press menu, and the wheel scrolls the terminal.
- File editing: a full page for SFTP files and scripts, Find scrolls to the match, and a dropped link turns Save into Reconnect.
- Hosts, keys, groups and scripts: Edit opens the row you picked.
-
v26.1.22026-08-16
- Keys: make an SSH key pair in the app, copy the public half, and add it to a server without leaving Term.
- Scripts: pick the hosts to run on from a searchable list with your groups, instead of every host inline. Run again clears the old results.
- GNU screen: detaching no longer leaves the prompt in the wrong place.
- Quick keys: a PowerShell palette on Windows hosts.
- Feedback: a reply from our team is marked as ours.
- Connections: upstream SSH and SFTP fixes.
-
v26.1.12026-08-13
- Quick keys: scrolling the key bar no longer types arrows into the session.
- SFTP: a link to a folder can be deleted at last, and a failed delete, listing or transfer says why — no permission, folder not empty, or gone.
- Port forwards: one that will not start says why — the port is taken, it is under 1024, or the server refused it.
- Scripts: a run that never reached the host says so, instead of printing the error as output.
- Feedback: a clearer type picker when you raise a ticket.
-
v26.1.02026-08-12
- SSH auto-resume: turn it on per host — tabs reopen after the app is killed, and reconnect when you return.
- System info: gauges and rows keep updating, instead of freezing on the first reading.
- Feedback: now in every language. Settings > Help & Feedback opens a thread with us, replies live.
- Mosh: set a per-host mosh-server path under Mosh options when it is not on the login PATH.
- Terminal: wide characters erase cleanly, the cursor sits right on emoji.
- Hosts: groups start collapsed.
-
v26.0.222026-08-09
- Mosh auto-resume: force-close Term or restart the phone and your mosh sessions come back on the next launch, still running.
- File transfers: an SFTP transfer no longer holds up the connection — keep typing while a file moves.
- Safer uploads: a cancelled upload no longer leaves half a file in place of the original.
- Chinese file names: uploaded under their own name.
- In-app pages: follow your light or dark theme.
- Tablet windows: the on-screen keyboard works again in a floating window.
-
v26.0.212026-08-07
- Terminal edges: full-screen apps like tmux, vim and htop now paint all the way to the screen edge, and ordinary text sits just off it.
- Background sessions: a live shell now survives about 70 seconds away from Term, up from 55 — long enough for a call or a reply.
- Updating: Settings > About warns you before updating if it would disconnect sessions you have open.
- Tips & guides: Settings > Product Improvement Program opens our guides site inside the app.
-
v26.0.202026-08-06
- Mosh UDP port: can pin the port or range mosh-server uses (60000, or 60000:61000).
- Mosh session timeout: a detached mosh-server now exits after an idle period instead of piling up. Settings > Terminal; 1 week by default.
- Mosh startup script: a host's startup script runs as part of the mosh launch, before the first prompt, so an export or cd sticks.
- Update notice: Settings > About names the new version.
- Terminal theme: follows a system light/dark switch right away, mid-session.
-
v26.0.192026-08-06
- Bold Chinese Rendering: when Chinese is your app or system language, bold text now draws from the system Chinese font's real bold weight, so dense characters stay readable.
- SFTP downloads: tap the ⋯ on a finished download in the Transfers sheet to preview, share or save as.
- Colour detection: a program that asks the terminal for its palette (vim, delta and other full-screen tools) now always gets a reply, so it stops guessing light or dark.
-
v26.0.182026-08-04
- Command suggestions: Chinese and Japanese ghost text no longer drifts or overlaps, and fragments of our own setup probe are never suggested.
- Shell integration: BusyBox shells (Alpine, routers, NAS) open on a clean prompt, not a wall of setup text, and a host is no longer called unsupported when its replies race.
- Terminal rendering: single-cell icons like ⚠ and Nerd Font symbols draw full size when the next cell is empty, and Chinese or Japanese over Mosh shows whole characters at once.
-
v26.0.172026-08-04
- GPU rendering rebuilt: emoji made of several pieces (families, skin tones) draw as one picture, accented letters are one character again, emoji keep to their own cell, and long Chinese or Japanese scrolls clean.
- External keyboards: Tab now reaches the shell instead of jumping between buttons, so completion works over USB and Bluetooth.
- Terminal fonts: every font now works with coding agents — Claude Code, Codex, Kimi and the rest — and each says what it is actually like to read.
-
v26.0.162026-08-04

-
v26.0.152026-07-31
- Tablet and foldable layout: the host list sits beside your session, and Scripts, Keys and Port forwards get their own sidebar sections.
- Mouse text selection: press and drag across the terminal with a mouse or trackpad.
- Double-tap for Tab: with the keyboard up, double-tap empty space to send Tab.
- First-run tips: a short guide the first time you open an SSH or mosh session.
- Fixes: readable key hints on light themes, better-sized sheets, and the right page for a host's port forwards.
-
v26.0.142026-07-29
- Encrypted local data: hosts, passwords and keys are now stored encrypted on your device.
- No more blank tabs: the terminal no longer opens an empty tab while shell integration starts up.
- Readable alerts: connection warnings and banners stay on screen long enough to read.
- Settings cleanup: removed the "open new tabs wide" option; command suggestions now explain what they need.
-
v26.0.132026-07-28
- SSH keys with a passphrase: encrypted keys now work — type it once when adding the key, checked as you type and saved.
- Port forwarding is out of testing: local and dynamic (SOCKS5) tunnels for everyone, from a host's menu or Settings.
- New About page: version, open-source licenses and the Product Improvement Program (usage statistics).
- Settings shows a dot when a newer version is available.
- Fixes: correct macOS disk usage in System Info; no pause opening a key that has a passphrase.
-
v26.0.122026-07-26
- Stay connected when you switch away: pop over to another app or a notification for a moment and your SSH session keeps running instead of dropping.
- Floating keyboard: the Ctrl/Esc/arrows accessory row now works in floating-keyboard mode.
- External keyboards: basic USB/Bluetooth support — type directly in the terminal; on-screen toggle hides while one is connected.
- Copy & paste: selections skip the blank lines below your text; pasted text is cleaned up for safe multi-line paste.
