Let’s get you
connected.

A little help with the things that can get in the way.

Can’t connect to a server?

Check the hostname, port and username. Confirm your server is reachable from the network you’re using, and that its SSH service and firewall allow the connection. Private addresses may require a VPN or a configured jump host.

Seeing a server identity warning?

Compare the SHA256 fingerprint with a trusted source before approving it. If a previously trusted key changes, verify the change with the server administrator. Only then forget the old identity in Settings → Trusted servers and reconnect.

Having trouble with a key?

Use an OpenSSH Ed25519 or RSA private key. Supported encrypted keys use AES-128/256-CTR and bcrypt. Confirm the matching public key is installed on the server and that your chosen username has permission to sign in.

iCloud sync not appearing?

Check that you’re signed into the same Apple Account on each device and have explicitly enabled sync in GlanceSSH. Update all devices to the same current app version. Live sessions and server trust approvals do not sync.

Preparing a bug report

Include your app version, device model, OS version, what you expected and the steps to reproduce the problem. Remove passwords, private keys, access tokens and sensitive server details from screenshots or logs.
