+ strengths

  • Same app and purchase cover Mac, iPhone, iPad and visionOS, with servers, keys, clips and themes synced by Panic Sync
  • Supports Eternal Terminal alongside Mosh and SSH, which few mobile clients list
  • Clips store one-tap commands globally or per server; favorites are protected with Face ID/Touch ID and Secure Enclave

! weak points

  • Current App Store build requires iOS/iPadOS/macOS/visionOS 26.0 or later, excluding devices stuck on older OS versions
  • Not available on Android, Windows or Linux
  • Neither panic.com/prompt nor the App Store description mentions SFTP or port forwarding, so file transfer and tunnels are not documented there

~/who it is for
