A few things
you might be wondering.

Read all FAQs
Which devices are supported?

GlanceSSH works across macOS and iOS: Mac running macOS 15 or later, iPhone running iOS 18 or later, and iPad running iPadOS 18 or later.

Do I need a GlanceSSH account?

No separate GlanceSSH account is required for local connections. Optional iCloud sync uses your Apple Account and private CloudKit database.

Can I use my existing SSH keys?

Yes. You can import supported OpenSSH Ed25519 and RSA private keys, or generate an Ed25519 key in the app. Supported encrypted imports use AES-128/256-CTR with bcrypt. Other key formats need conversion before import.

What syncs between my devices?

When you enable iCloud sync, saved connections, supported credentials and software SSH keys can sync through your private CloudKit database. Live sessions, server trust approvals, snippets, command history and biometric settings stay on each device.
