# SwiftTerm Prepares Native SSH and SFTP Workflows for iPhone and iPad

SwiftTerm is preparing a privacy-first iPhone and iPad terminal workspace for operators who need to inspect hosts, transfer files, and run local network checks away from a laptop.

The app combines native terminal sessions, SFTP transfers, command snippets, Keychain-backed key management, known-host review, and sandboxed local diagnostics in a SwiftUI interface built for mobile and iPad workflows.

The current release scope focuses on honest remote-access tooling: password and Ed25519 live SSH authentication, host/key management, SFTP operations, local DNS and reachability checks, privacy controls, diagnostics redaction, and App Store handoff pages under swiftterm.app.

SwiftTerm is local-first. Private SSH key material is stored in Keychain, analytics are opt-in and sanitized, and support reports are designed to avoid passwords, private keys, hostnames, IP addresses, access tokens, and production command output.

Roadmap items such as Mosh, production CloudKit sync launch, collaboration backends, marketplace distribution, true delta rsync, guaranteed long-running background transfers, live RSA authentication, and production AI execution are not presented as shipped features.

Public launch materials are available at https://swiftterm.app/press.html.
