# What is Termius This page introduces the core concepts of Termius, including Vaults, Groups, Hosts, Keychain, and Terminal, and explains how they work together to organize infrastructure access.
Termius is a **modern SSH client** designed for productivity and collaboration. Connect securely to remote infrastructure with just one click from any device and collaborate with your team in an encrypted cloud [vault](#vaults). Unlike traditional SSH clients that treat each connection as a separate session string, Termius provides a structured model for managing infrastructure access. ## Basic concepts Termius organizes infrastructure access around three core concepts: Vaults, Groups, and Hosts. ```abap Vaults └── Groups └── Hosts ├── SSH (port 22, key: prod-key) ├── SFTP └── Telnet (port 23) ``` Instead of thinking in terms of raw connection strings, Termius lets you think in terms of machines and environments. ### Vaults
Vaults are the top-level structure in Termius for organizing data, controlling access, and syncing across devices. They provide **end-to-end encrypted storage** for all your data, including Hosts, Groups, SSH keys, Snippets, Port Forwarding rules, and Known Hosts. Every account includes a **Personal vault**, accessible only to you and synced across all your devices. When you add team members, a **Team vault** is created automatically. This vault is shared with all team members, allowing your team to manage infrastructure together. You can also create additional vaults to **separate data and control access** across different team members or environments. Learn more in [Team vaults](/team-collaboration/team-vaults). ### Groups
Groups are collections of Hosts that share a common attribute, such as a customer, environment, region, or project. Groups support nesting, so you can reflect the structure of your infrastructure. Groups can also define shared settings, including protocol options, credentials, jump hosts, and ports. They are automatically inherited by all Hosts within the group. For example, if you configure a jump host for a Group, every Host within it will automatically connect through that jump host. ```abap Group: Production ├── Group: AWS EU │ ├── Host: web-01 │ └── Host: db-01 └── Group: AWS US ├── Host: web-02 └── Host: db-02 ``` Learn more about how to create and manage groups in [Groups and tags](/organize-and-connect-to-hosts/groups-and-tags). ### Hosts
A Host represents a remote machine with all the protocols used to connect.\ It is defined by an IP address or a hostname and includes: * **Labels and tags** for search and navigation * **Multiple protocols:** SSH, Mosh, SFTP, Telnet, each with its own port and credentials * **Authentication settings:** SSH keys, certificates, or password(s) * **Jump host** or **proxy** settings You only need to configure the machine once and then you are able to connect to it in multiple ways without duplicating settings. ```abap Host: db-prod-01 (10.0.1.15) |── SSH port 22 key: prod-db-key user: ubuntu |── SFTP port 22 key: prod-db-key user: ubuntu └── Telnet port 23 user: admin ``` *** ## Termius Keychain
Termius Keychain is a secure storage for credentials like usernames, passwords, [SSH keys and certificates](/keychain/ssh-keys-and-certificates), and [Identities](/keychain/identities). Items in the Keychain can be referenced by multiple Hosts and Groups without duplicating them. When a password changes, update it in the Keychain once. Every Host that references it automatically picks up the change. Learn how Termius keeps your data safe in [Security](/security/encryption-overview). *** ## Terminal The terminal in Termius is where you interact with connected hosts. It supports standard terminal emulation and includes features built directly into the session experience. ### Workspaces
A Workspace groups two or more terminal sessions into a single environment. Sessions inside a Workspace can be viewed one at a time in Focus mode, or all at once in Split view. You can broadcast a command to all sessions simultaneously and save the entire setup as a reusable template. Learn how to use [Workspaces](/terminal/workspaces) to manage multiple sessions in one environment. ### Snippets
Snippets are saved commands or shell scripts accessible directly from the terminal. You can run them from the side panel, trigger them via autocomplete, or execute them on multiple hosts at once from the Snippets screen. Learn how to use [Snippets](/terminal/snippets) to save, organize, and run commands across your hosts. ### Autocomplete
Autocomplete in Termius suggests completions from many sources, such as snippets, shell history commands, paths, built-in commands with arguments, and sudo passwords. #### **AI in the terminal**
Termius can convert a plain-language description into a shell command. Press the **Down Arrow** in the terminal, describe what you want to do, and Termius generates the command using AI. {% hint style="info" %} AI command generation is part of Autocomplete and requires an account. {% endhint %} Learn how to enable [Shell integration & autocomplete](/terminal/autocomplete-and-shell-integration) to enhance your terminal experience. ### Side panel
The terminal side panel helps you customize the look of your terminal with themes and boost your productivity with command history and snippets. ## Session logs
Termius automatically collects terminal session logs for every host. Logs are synced across devices and shared with your team. You can search logs and save them using Bookmarks. Learn how to use [Team session logs](/team-collaboration/team-session-logs) to review activity, troubleshoot issues, and understand what happened in your sessions. # Quick start This guide walks you through installing Termius, setting up your account, and connecting to your first host. Termius is an SSH client for connecting to remote hosts, managing infrastructure, and running terminal sessions across devices. With a paid subscription, there is no limit on the number of devices you can use. Termius is available on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android, so you can use it across all your devices. See [Download Termius](/getting-started/download-termius). ## Install Termius {% stepper %} {% step %} #### Download and install Termius on your device Termius is supported on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android.

Vaults in Termius are the **end-to-end encrypted cloud storage** for Hosts, Keys, Snippets, Port Forwarding rules, and Known Hosts. Vaults enable **sync** across devices and **secure sharing** across your team. Your Termius account includes three types of vaults: * Your **Personal vault** is for items not meant to be seen by the team, such as credentials or test and work-in-progress servers. * **Team vault** is created automatically once you invite your first teammate. This vault is shared with everyone on the team, enabling your team to manage infrastructure together. * **Custom team vaults** are additional vaults when your company requires **granular permissions** and controlled access to information across team members. Use them to separate data by team, project, or environment, and define who can access each vault. This structure allows you to organize access based on your team’s needs. For example, a SaaS company has dedicated DevOps, Developers, and QA teams, each with different access levels to the infrastructure. The company uses vaults in Termius to separate **Production**, **Development**, and **Staging** environments. DevOps has access to all three. Developers can access Development and Staging, while QA can access only Staging. For more examples and ideas on organizing your vaults, see [Team vaults](/team-collaboration/team-vaults). ### Set up a new vault

This helps you separate environments, simplify navigation, and control access across your team. Learn more in [Groups and tags](/organize-and-connect-to-hosts/groups-and-tags) and [Team vaults](/team-collaboration/team-vaults). # Invite your team This page explains how Termius enables team collaboration with Vaults, helping you keep infrastructure data in sync, establish a single source of truth, and manage access for your team.
Termius is a modern SSH client designed for collaboration. It helps your team stay on the same page by keeping Hosts, Keys, Snippets, Port Forwarding rules, and Known Hosts in sync with encrypted cloud vaults. ### Single source of truth Old-school SSH clients were never designed with collaboration in mind. Teams often maintain shared spreadsheets, wikis, or NetBox as a single source of truth. This scattered approach leads to wasted time and confusion. Team members search for connection information in one place and copy and paste it into their SSH client of choice, only to find that someone forgot to update the details. So they spend even more time asking where to get the latest connection details. Termius transforms this process with team vaults. Vaults serve as a single source of truth for Hosts, Groups, Snippets, Port Forwarding rules, and Credentials, which are stored securely and updated in real time. With a single click, every team member gets immediate access to the connection details they need, ensuring that everyone is always on the same page. ### Invite your team
Adding new team members in Termius is straightforward, but access to shared data is granted in steps: 1. Send the invitations to your teammates 2. Once the invitation is accepted, the new member joins the team and gets access to their **Personal** vault 3. The team owner receives a notification prompting them to grant access to the Team vault containing the shared data 4. Only after access is granted can the team member see the shared data in Termius See [Team vaults](/team-collaboration/team-vaults) for more details on setting up and managing your team. # Sync to mobile This page shows how to get started on mobile with sync so you can access and manage your infrastructure from anywhere.
Termius mobile app is a fully-fledged SSH client for [iOS](https://termius.com/free-ssh-client-for-iphone), [iPadOS](https://termius.com/free-ssh-client-for-ipad), and [Android](https://termius.com/free-ssh-client-for-android). It can do everything your desktop app can, so you can work from anywhere. Whether you’re responding to an emergency, updating infrastructure on the go, or prefer the convenience of your phone or tablet, the mobile app keeps your infrastructure within reach. ### **Designed for mobile** Termius includes a keyboard add-on with all the necessary keys, gesture support for fast terminal navigation, and snippets to improve the terminal experience. This helps you stay as productive on mobile as you are on desktop. ### **Quick start with sync** Automatic sync across all your vaults lets you start connecting on a new device in no time, without having to set everything up from scratch. ### Set up the Termius mobile app Getting started with Termius on mobile takes just a few steps: 1. Install the Termius app on [iOS](https://termius.com/download/ios) or [Android](https://termius.com/download/android). 2. Log in to your account — your Vaults, hosts, and configurations will be synced automatically. Once logged in, you can immediately connect to your hosts and continue working without any additional setup. Use the connection method that fits your workflow and continue working across your devices. See [Connecting to a server](/organize-and-connect-to-hosts/connecting-to-a-server) for supported protocols and setup steps. # Glossary This page defines key terms and concepts used in Termius to help you better understand features, workflows, and documentation. ### **Host** A host in Termius represents a remote machine that can be accessed via multiple protocols, such as SSH, Telnet, etc. It is defined by an IP address and includes metadata, such as labels and tags, for easier search and navigation. You can configure multiple protocols for a single Host. For example, you can set up SSH with a port, credentials, and a jump host; enable Mosh when you need connection stability while changing networks; or configure Telnet with a different port and credentials. ### **Group** A group is a labeled collection of Hosts that share a common characteristic, such as a customer, location, or environment. A nested structure helps organize Hosts and simplify navigation. All hosts in a group inherit the group settings unless they are overridden. ### **Key** A key in Termius is a labeled secret container that holds private and public keys, certificates, and passphrases. ### **Identity** An identity in Termius holds a username, password, and key. It links to hosts and groups to eliminate credential duplication. ### **Snippet** A snippet is a labeled shell script for easy repeated executions. ### **Snippet package** A snippet package is a collection of related snippets. It allows you to organize your snippets by type, target system, or domain. ### **Known hosts** A known host in Termius stores the remote machine's public key. It is used to verify the host's identity on connection, to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. ### **Port forwarding rule** A port forwarding rule in Termius stores information about remote, local, and dynamic port forwardings so you can get them up in one click. ### **Vault** A vault is the top-level organizational unit, designed for access control. It's an end-to-end encrypted storage for all your data in Termius: Hosts, Groups, Keys, Snippets, Port Forwarding rules, and Known Hosts. Vaults let you give different members access to different resources. ### **Local vault** The local vault stores data only on the current device, without syncing or sharing it across devices. Data in the Local Vault is not backed up. If you don't have a subscription, log out of your Starter account, or the app removal will lead to permanent deletion of unsynchronized changes. ### **Personal vault** The personal vault is created automatically when you sign up. It can be used for items not meant to be seen by the team, such as credentials or test and work-in-progress servers. Data in the Personal Vault is protected by your encryption password and is not accessible without it. ### **Team vault** The team vault is created automatically once you invite your first teammate. This vault is shared with everyone on the team, enabling your team to manage infrastructure together. ### Custom team vaults The custom team vaults are additional vaults when your company requires **granular permissions** and controlled access to information across team members. Use them to separate data by team, project, or environment, and define who can access each vault. # Connecting to a server This page covers the different ways to connect to a server in Termius, including SSH, Mosh, Telnet, Serial, SFTP, and the Local Terminal.

It employs a parallel UDP session to keep the session alive. That also enables Mosh to maintain its own terminal buffer that intelligently echoes your input, even if the server is slow or the network lags. The enhancements provided by Mosh are really important for reliable mobile connectivity. If your device changes networks or loses connection, Mosh can keep your session alive until the connection is re-established. The Mosh service is distinct from SSH and must be installed and configured separately on your host system. Once the service is up and running, you can use it on your hosts in Termius. {% hint style="info" %} Termius uses its own library for Mosh compatibility. Mosh 1.3.0 and newer versions are supported. {% endhint %} {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} To connect via Mosh on the desktop: 1. Open the `Vault` tab, then the `Hosts` screen 2.

{% hint style="warning" %} Termius from the Mac App Store and Snap Store do not include the Local Terminal feature due to sandbox limitations. Download Termius from the website for [macOS](https://termius.com/download/macos), [Windows](https://termius.com/download/windows), or [Linux](https://termius.com/download/linux) to use Local Terminal. {% endhint %} # Managing files with SFTP This page explains how to use SFTP in Termius to browse, transfer, and manage files across local and remote systems, with guidance for both desktop and mobile workflows. > **Secure File Transfer Protocol** (**SFTP**) is a secure, encrypted method for transferring files between computers over a network, acting as an extension of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol. It replaces older FTP by encrypting commands and data to prevent password sniffing and man-in-the-middle attacks. ## Overview
Termius supports SFTP across all its major platforms, including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. It includes: * **Dual-pane interface on the desktop:** manage local or remote files side-by-side * **Transfer files**: transfer files between the selected hosts, including drag-and-drop support * **Mobile support:** open multiple SFTP tabs on iOS and Android, which allows you to have multiple file transfer sessions open simultaneously * **Integrated workflow:** switch between a terminal session and an SFTP session for the same host with a single click * **File editing:** download files for editing with further changes tracking and file upload {% hint style="info" %} Termius from the Mac App Store and Snap Store is sandboxed and has limited access to the file system. If you need to manage local files, download Termius from the website for [macOS](https://termius.com/download/macos), [Windows](https://termius.com/download/windows), or [Linux](https://termius.com/download/linux). {% endhint %} *** ## Connect to a host via SFTP {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} Opening SFTP sessions works differently on the desktop and mobile. On the desktop, a **local file system** opens by default. To connect to a host via SFTP on the desktop: 1. Open the `SFTP` tab 2. In one of the SFTP panes, select a host
3. Choose a host from the list
4. Complete authentication if prompted
{% endtab %} {% tab title="Mobile" %} Opening SFTP sessions works differently on the desktop and mobile. To connect to a host via SFTP on mobile from the `Host screen`: 1. Select the host you want to connect to 2. Open the `Context menu`: * **iOS:** press and hold the host
* **Android:** tap the host icon, then tap the `three-dot menu`
3. Tap `Connect via SFTP` 4. Complete authentication if prompted {% hint style="success" %} The SFTP session opens in a new tab. Desktop supports two active SFTP panes at a time. Mobile lets you open multiple SFTP tabs. {% endhint %} {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} *** ## Browse the file system
### Refresh the contents of the folder

{% endtab %} {% endtabs %} # Port forwarding and tunneling This page explains how to set up and manage SSH port forwarding in Termius, including local, remote, and dynamic tunneling. SSH port forwarding, also called SSH tunneling, can be used to **get** or **provide** access to services that are not directly reachable, encrypt connections between different applications, and more. See also: [Port Forwarding](https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding) (Ubuntu Community Help Wiki). Termius supports all three main types of port forwarding (local, remote, and dynamic) and lets users manage their port-forwarding rules through a convenient interface. You can view all active port forwarding rules on a single page, and start or stop a specific rule with a double-click. ## Local port forwarding **Concept:** "I want to **get access** to a specific service that is unreachable from my current perspective." For example, Daniel has a MySQL database server that is not reachable from his device with Termius, but is reachable from the `daniel.local` device, which is his office laptop. The laptop runs an SSH server and is reachable from Daniel's device with Termius. If Daniel sets up local port forwarding through an SSH connection to his office laptop, he will be able to **get access** the MySQL database server locally. Here is how to set it up via Termius: {% stepper %} {% step %} #### Create a local port forwarding rule
Open the Port Forwarding screen in Termius, and create a `New Port Forwarding`. When prompted to choose a type, choose `Local`. {% hint style="info" %} Termius has a built-in Port Forwarding Setup Wizard that can lead you through the steps explaining what every parameter of the setup is required for. You can choose to skip it and see all the required fields to be set up on a single form. {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose a local port
This is the port that will be opened on a `local` machine. Traffic from this port will be forwarded to the specified destination via the SSH connection we will specify next. {% hint style="warning" %} Make sure the port is not already in used. For example, if you are setting up a local port forwarding on iOS, make sure not to choose one of the ports listed [here](https://support.apple.com/en-us/103229). Otherwise, the port forwarding rule won't be activated. You can check if another process is already using the selected port by running the `netstat` command in the terminal: * On Windows, run `netstat -ant` * On macOS and Linux, run `netstat -tolpn` {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose a host
This is the intermediate host to tunnel the traffic through. The resource/service you are trying to access locally should be accessible from this host. {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose the destination address and port
Now specify the address and port you want to **get access to**, as if you were reaching them from the chosen host's perspective. If the service is running locally on the selected host, then put 127.0.0.1 in the destination address field. {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Start the rule
After you create the Port Forwarding Rule, **double-click** it to start it. **Double-click** it again to stop it. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %} The resulting rule is equivalent to the following command: ``` ssh -L 127.0.0.1:3336:10.1.30.42:3306 daniel@daniel.local ``` ## Remote port forwarding **Concept:** "I want to ***provide*** someone with ***access*** to a service running on my machine or my private network." For example, Bethany is developing a personal website on her laptop and wants Daniel to review it. Unfortunately, it is not accessible to Daniel, and she cannot change the router settings to make it accessible. Daniel has an SSH server running on his machine and suggests that Bethany set up remote port forwarding over the SSH connection to his server so he can access Bethany's website locally. Here is how to set it up via Termius: {% stepper %} {% step %} #### Create a remote port forwarding rule
Open the Port Forwarding screen in Termius, and create a `New Port Forwarding`. When prompted to choose a type, choose `Remote`. {% hint style="info" %} Termius has a built-in Port Forwarding Setup Wizard that can lead you through the steps explaining what every parameter of the setup is required for. You can choose to skip it and see all the required fields to be set up on a single form. {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose a host
This is the host you can reach via SSH, and where you want to open a port. Anyone connecting to that port on the server will have their traffic tunneled back through your SSH connection to your local machine. {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose a remote port
This is the port that will be opened on the selected remote server. Anyone connecting to that port on the server will have their traffic tunneled back through your SSH connection to your local machine. {% hint style="warning" %} Make sure the port is not already in used. You can check if another process is already using the selected port by running the `netstat` command in the terminal on the remote host: * On Windows, run `netstat -ant` * On macOS and Linux, run `netstat -tolpn` {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose the destination address and port
Now specify the address and port that you want **to provide access to**. If the service you want to share is running locally on your machine, then put 127.0.0.1 in the destination address field and specify the corresponding port. {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Start the rule
After you create the Port Forwarding Rule, **double-click** it to start it. **Double-click** it again to stop it. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %} The resulting rule is equivalent to the following command: ``` ssh -R 127.0.0.1:8080:127.0.0.1:80 daniel@daniel.local ``` ## Dynamic port forwarding **Concept:** "I want my machine to act as a secure proxy for **any** destination." * This can be used to **get access** to a service that is unreachable locally, similar to the case with Local port forwarding * Or a SOCKS proxy can be used that will tunnel the traffic through the specified SSH connection, allowing secure access in untrusted networks For example, using this technique, you can have a web browser use your SSH connection as a proxy, making your web connection requests appear to come from the remote server instead of your local device. * For that, you will need to specify `127.0.0.1:[selected local port]` as the browser SOCKS proxy. Here is how to set it up via Termius: {% stepper %} {% step %} #### Create a dynamic port forwarding rule
Open the Port Forwarding screen in Termius, and choose to create a `New Port Forwarding`. When prompted to choose a type, choose `Dynamic`. {% hint style="info" %} Termius has a built-in Port Forwarding Setup Wizard that can lead you through the steps, explaining what every parameter of the setup is required for. You can choose to skip it and see all the required fields to be set up on a single form. {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose a local port
This is the port to be opened on a `local` machine. Traffic from this port will be forwarded to the specified destination via the SSH connection we will specify next. {% hint style="warning" %} Make sure the port is not reserved by the system. For example, if you are setting up a local port forwarding on iOS, make sure not to choose one of the ports mentioned [here](https://support.apple.com/en-us/103229). Otherwise, the port forwarding won't be activated. You can check if another process is already using the selected port by running the `netstat` command in the terminal: * On Windows, run `netstat -ant` * On macOS and Linux, run `netstat -tolpn` {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Choose a host
This is the intermediate host to tunnel the traffic through. The resource/service you are trying to access locally should be accessible from this host. {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Start the rule
After you create the Port Forwarding Rule, **double-click** it to start it. **Double-click** it again to stop it. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %} The resulting rule is equivalent to the following command: ``` ssh -D 2080 daniel@acme-web-dev-us-south:16734 ``` ## Troubleshooting If you followed the steps above but your port forwarding rule doesn't start, there are a couple of things you can check: * Make sure no other process is already using the forwarded port. On Windows, run `netstat -ant`. On macOS and Linux, run `netstat -tolpn`. * If remote port forwarding does not work, make sure `GatewayPorts` is set to `yes` in the remote SSH server configuration. # Groups and tags This page explains the concept of groups in Termius and how groups and tags can help you organize your hosts. ## Groups A group is a labeled collection of Hosts that share a common characteristic, such as a customer, location, or environment. A nested structure helps organize Hosts and simplify navigation. Groups can also define protocol settings inherited by all Hosts in the Group. {% hint style="info" %} Groups **are not** folders. On the Hosts screen, you see all hosts in the current groups and their subgroups. {% endhint %} ### Create a group 1. On the `Hosts` screen, click the chevron next to the `New Host` button and choose `New Group`
2. In the `Label` field, enter the group name
3. To place this group inside another group, fill in the `Parent Group` field
4. Termius auto-saves the group #### Customize groups Termius lets you set default parameters for hosts and subgroups within a given group. You can configure default parameters for: * Protocols * Credentials * Startup snippets * Host chaining * Proxy * Environment variables * Terminal themes * And more See [How hosts inherit group properties](#how-hosts-inherit-group-properties) for more details. #### Advanced You can enable Cloud Sync for a specific group and integrate it with AWS, DigitalOcean, or Azure. Once the setup is completed, Termius syncs the matching instances from that provider. You can create multiple groups for different providers and configurations. ### Move hosts to a group There are several ways to add or move a host to a group. {% hint style="info" %} **Important**\ Groups are not folders. Termius shows all hosts within the current group and its subgroups. So, when you move a host to a different group, it may still stay visible on the Hosts screen. {% endhint %} {% tabs %} {% tab title="Edit Host" %} #### Via edit host To move hosts to a group via edit host: 1. `Right-click` the host and select `Edit`
2. In the `Parent Group` field, select the group
3. Termius auto-saves the changes #### Via drag'n'drop To move hosts to a group via drag'n'drop: 1. Select several hosts 2. Drag and drop them onto the group
{% endtab %} {% tab title="Mobile" %} To move several hosts to a group via the context menu: 1. Select several hosts and tap the `three dots` button
2. Select `Move to group`
3. Select the target group
4. `Save` the changes {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ### How hosts inherit group properties Inheritance in groups is a powerful feature that can significantly simplify host management in Termius. Every host or subgroup inside a group inherits the properties of that group, unless you override them explicitly. For example, if you manage a number of production servers and want all of them to have a red terminal theme to stay alert when you interact with them. You can create a group and set the terminal theme accordingly, so every host in the group will have the same theme. When you change the terminal theme in the group, all hosts in it are updated as well. Another common use case is setting up Host Chaining for a group. When you have several hosts behind the same bastion (or a number of jump hosts), instead of replicating the same configuration on every host, you set this up once in a group. Then every host in that group goes through the specified chain of hosts when you connect to it. The parameter inheritance works through configuration merging. If the property is not explicitly overridden, Termius checks all parent groups for a default value. This lets you build nested groups with nested inheritance settings on a per-parameter basis to satisfy a wide variety of use cases. ### Connect to all hosts inside a group Another benefit of organizing hosts into groups is the ability to connect to all hosts in a group at once: 1. `Right-click` the group 2. Choose `Quick Connect` from the context menu
3. Termius opens a new tab for every host in the group and initiates the connections {% hint style="info" %} To connect to multiple hosts at once, you can also use [Workspaces](https://app.gitbook.com/o/VK0PKfeZDvhqkCsvSiAD/s/5PCLq8V6ZExygzYl6XVJ/~/diff/~/changes/159/terminal/workspaces). {% endhint %} *** ## Tags Tags give you another way to organize Hosts. For example, you can tag all Ubuntu servers, servers for a specific client if you are a freelancer, virtual servers, dedicated servers, or hosts with a specific tool installed. Clear tags make large host lists easier to search. Tags appear on hosts, under host names. ### Create tags 1. `Right-click` the host and choose `Edit`
2. In the `Tags` field, type a tag or choose one from the suggestions
{% hint style="info" %} Removing a tag from a host doesn't delete the tag. {% endhint %} ### Filter by tags
When you search for a host on the Hosts screen, the app checks the tags and filters the results accordingly. You can also open the Tags menu and select specific tags to show only hosts that have all selected tags. ### Delete tags 1. Open the `Tags` menu 2. Hover over the tag you no longer need and click the `Delete` button
# Session logs This page explains how Termius records terminal sessions, where they're stored, and how Bookmarks let you keep important sessions long-term. ## Overview
Session logs are a record of your terminal activity. They help you review past work, troubleshoot issues, and collaborate with teammates. A session log lives in the vault where it was recorded. Local terminal session logs are always stored in your Personal vault and are not synced with your team, so only you can see them. By default, Termius keeps one **recent session log** per host. Every time you connect, a new log starts recording automatically and is saved when the session ends, replacing the previous one for that host. To keep a session for future reference, you can [bookmark](#save-session-logs) it. In a Multiplayer session, the log is recorded only for the **session** **owner**. The log captures everything as if the session owner were working alone, regardless of who else joins or who is typing at any given moment. **Guests** who join a Multiplayer session do not have a log recorded on their own account. Depending on your plan, logs can be synced across devices, shared with teammates, bookmarked for future reference, and kept under different retention policies. {% hint style="warning" %} Session logging is supported for **local terminal**, **serial**, **Telnet**, and **SSH** connections. **Mosh** sessions are not recorded. {% endhint %} ## View session logs The Logs screen lists every log you have access to. You can sort the list by date or by bookmarked logs first, and filter by vault.
Clicking a log opens it as a tab. You can add the log to a [Workspace](/terminal/workspaces) to reference it while you work with other hosts.
{% hint style="info" %} **Logs can't be viewed on mobile**, though iOS and Android still record and sync sessions in the background. To view them, open Termius on macOS, Windows, or Linux. {% endhint %} ## Save session logs
Bookmarks let you save important session logs in your vault for future reference, for example, troubleshooting steps, incident investigations, configuration changes, or solutions to recurring issues. While recent logs are rotated automatically, bookmarked logs are preserved until you remove the bookmark. You can also add comments to a bookmarked log to provide some context, such as what you were investigating, why a change was made, or what conclusions were reached during the session. #### To bookmark a session log: 1. Open `Vault` tab→ `Logs`
2. Click `Bookmark` icon for the required log
3. (Optional) Add a comment. Click outside the field or press `Enter` to save
## Disable and enable logging Session logging is enabled by default for all vaults. If you don't want sessions recorded for a particular vault, you can disable logging for that vault. New sessions are not recorded until you turn logging back on. {% hint style="danger" %} Disabling logging deletes all logs in the vault, including bookmarked ones. {% endhint %} #### To disable or enable logging for a vault: 1. Open `Settings` → `Logs`
2. Select `Enable` or `Disable` for the required vault
## FAQ
Can I delete a specific session log? No, single session logs can't be deleted manually. You can, however, replace the recent log for a host by starting and closing a new session on it. The new session becomes the recent log, and the previous one is no longer kept. This only works while the host is still available, once a host is removed, its remaining logs can only be cleared by disabling logging for the vault. To clear all logs in a vault at once, see [Disable and enable logging](#disable-and-enable-logging).
Can I move a session log to another vault? No, session logs stay in the vault where they were recorded. To start recording into a different vault, move the host there. Its existing logs stay behind, and new sessions in the new vault start a new recording.
Can I export a session log? There is no export button for a log, but you can copy the log output and paste it into a file manually.
Are passwords and other sensitive data captured in session logs? Anything that appears in your terminal as plain text is captured. Passwords typed into interactive prompts (where the terminal hides what you type) are not captured.
Are the logs encrypted? Session logs are protected by the same end-to-end encryption as the rest of your data. For more information, see [Encryption overview.](/security/encryption-overview)
What happens to my logs if I cancel my subscription or downgrade my plan? * **Pro → Starter (or cancel Pro).** Your existing logs remain available to read. New sessions are not recorded on Starter. You can clear the old ones by disabling session logging. See [Disable and enable logging](#disable-and-enable-logging). * **Team or Business → Pro.** Team and Custom vaults are removed, and their logs are deleted along with them. Your logs in the Personal vault remain available to read, and new sessions continue to be recorded to the Personal vault. * **Team or Business → Starter (or cancel Team or Business).** Team and Custom vaults are removed, and their logs are deleted along with them. Your existing logs in Personal vault stay and remain available to read. New sessions are not recorded on Starter. You can clear the old ones by disabling session logging. See [Disable and enable logging](#disable-and-enable-logging).
Can I set a custom retention policy for a vault? It depends on your requirements. By default, Termius keeps one **recent session log** per host. To preserve a specific log you can bookmark it. * **Recent session log** is the last session you closed on a host. Each new session you close replaces the previous one. * **Bookmarked session logs** are sessions you have saved. They stay in your vault until you remove the bookmark. See [Bookmarks](#bookmarks-for-session-logs). [Сontact us](https://support.termius.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) to discuss options.
# Workspaces This page covers core Workspace actions: creating, switching views, command broadcasting, saving templates, and monitoring sessions. ## Overview
Workspaces group multiple terminal sessions into one focused environment. They help you work across multiple servers to deploy, validate changes across environments, or compare logs without rebuilding the same setup each time. Inside a workspace, you can: * **Organize work** by intent: deploy, incident, investigation * Switch between [Focus mode](#focus-mode) and [Split view](#split-view) * [Broadcast](#command-broadcast-mode) the same input to multiple sessions You can save a workspace as a reusable **workspace template**. When you reopen it, Termius restores it to the saved state. **Workspace templates capture:** * Included connections * Tab names * Layout configuration * Working directories * Running commands at the time of saving {% hint style="info" %} Workspaces are currently available on **macOS**, **Windows**, and **Linux**. {% endhint %} *** ## Create a workspace template You need at least **two sessions** to create a workspace.

Think of them as a cloud-synced library of your most-used or proven scripts/commands. Snippets are stored in [Vaults](/getting-started/learn-about-vaults), synced across devices, and available to your team when you share the vault with a paid subscription. If you have a team, every member can contribute to the snippets library, making teamwork easier. With snippets, you can: * Run the same command on multiple hosts * Run a startup snippet each time you connect to a host * Paste or run commands from the terminal side panel * Run saved commands from [Autocomplete](/terminal/autocomplete-and-shell-integration) * Organize snippets with snippet packages * Share approved commands with your team ## Create a snippet {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} On the Desktop, you can create a snippet either from the dedicated Snippets screen or from the side panel in the terminal.

Start typing and select the right suggestion. **Snippet variables** Termius does not support variables in the snippet editor yet. You can use the `export` command in a startup snippet to define environment variables for other snippets. You can also set environment variables in the `Host Edit` screen. # Autocomplete & Shell integration This page explains how Autocomplete and Shell integration work in Termius, how to enable Autocomplete, and what limitations apply. ## Autocomplete Autocomplete in Termius uses data from many sources to suggest snippets, shell history commands, paths, and built-in commands with arguments. It can also detect password prompts and suggest matching Identities. You do not need to install third-party packages or dependencies to use autocomplete. ### Enable autocomplete Enable `Autocomplete` in one of these ways: 1. Open `Settings → Terminal`, then turn on `Autocomplete`
2. Open the terminal side panel, click the `rocket` icon, then turn on `Autocomplete`
{% hint style="info" %} Autocomplete is not available in **PowerShell** or **CMD**. {% endhint %} ## Shell integration Shell integration works in the local terminal and in supported SSH sessions. It helps Termius detect the current directory, command history, prompts, and active command state. Termius uses that data for Autocomplete and other terminal features. In remote sessions, Termius opens additional `exec` channels next to the main `shell` channel. It uses those channels to fetch data such as paths and command history. ## Command suggestions
Termius Autocomplete provides suggestions from multiple sources, including command history, file and directory paths, built-in commands and arguments, and argument descriptions when available. ## Snippet suggestions
Autocomplete in Termius makes snippets more accessible. They are integrated into autocomplete suggestions, and you can quickly find and execute one without searching for it in the side terminal panel. Start typing the Snippet name or any text from its script, and Termius shows matching Snippets in the suggestion list. ## Password suggestions
When Termius detects a password prompt, it suggests [identities](/keychain/identities) (saved combinations of username/password/key) to choose from. Learn more about Identities in Termius -> [Identities](/keychain/identities). ## Known limitations & system requirements #### Local terminal Shell integration for the local terminal works only with `bash` and `zsh`. #### Remote connections * SSH server: OpenSSH 7.2+ * Shell: `bash` In supported SSH sessions, Termius opens additional `exec` channels to fetch paths and command history. {% hint style="warning" %} Some servers reject `exec` channels and may drop the connection. This often happens on network equipment or locked-down systems. {% endhint %} If the connection drops, turn off `Autocomplete`. If you manage the server, allow at least two sessions per connection: 1. Open the `sshd_config` file on your server 2. Find `MaxSessions`, then set it to `2` or higher 3. Save the file 4. Restart the SSH server. Use `sudo systemctl restart ssh` or `sudo service ssh restart` # Mobile terminal This page explains how to use the mobile terminal on iOS and iPadOS, customize its behavior, and work efficiently on a smaller screen. ## Overview Termius on mobile brings a touch-optimized experience for mobile workflows.

They're designed to make it impossible to extract private keys and protect them against compromise. Hardware keys can also offer additional security features, such as user-presence confirmation, providing an extra factor during authentication. Termius simplifies the use of hardware keys for SSH connections, allowing you to generate non-resident FIDO2 keys within the app and syncing it across your devices. #### **Prerequisites** * You'll need a hardware security key that supports the FIDO2 protocol, such as [YubiKey](https://www.yubico.com/), [Solo](https://solokeys.com/), [OnlyKey](https://onlykey.io/), or [Google Titan](https://store.google.com/product/titan_security_key). Most other FIDO2-compatible security keys should also work with Termius * FIDO2 requires OpenSSH 8.4 or higher to be installed on your server * Hardware keys usually need to be set up before their first use. Some require a PIN code, while others use a biometric scanner and require you to enroll your fingerprint. Make sure you finish setting up your hardware key before following the steps below ### Generate a FIDO2 SSH key {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} To generate a FIDO2 key in Termius on the Desktop: 1. Navigate to the `Keychain` screen and click `FIDO2`

# Sync of keys and passwords This page explains how keychain synchronization differs from other data sync and how to keep your credentials stored locally while syncing the rest of your Vault data. By default, Termius encrypts your data and syncs it across your vaults. Termius provides password-manager-grade security standards, ensuring your data is encrypted before it leaves your device. {% hint style="info" %} Learn more about the Encryption in Termius, see the [Encryption overview](/security/encryption-overview). {% endhint %} At some companies, however, there are strict requirements for credentials to be kept locally and never synced, even in an encrypted format. Termius allows disabling the credentials synchronization to help with such cases.
What counts as credentials? Usernames, passwords, SSH keys, and identities.
How to disable the credentials synchronization? You can disable the synchronization of your credentials stored in the Personal vault in Termius. To do so, you need to: 1. Open `Termius > Settings > Account` 2. Disable the `Sync keys and identities` toggle under the Synchronization section
Can I stop all the data from synchronizing? If you have an account, then no, you can't. The `Sync keys and identities` toggle only controls the credentials part. The rest of the data (hosts, groups, snippets, etc.) stays encrypted and synced across your vaults. {% hint style="info" %} While the synchronization is not working in the free Starter plan, you might activate a Pro or Team trial at some point and the data will be synced then. {% endhint %}
What will happen with my credentials if I log out? If you log out, all the local data will be cleared. {% hint style="danger" %} If synchronization of your credentials is disabled, they will also be cleared. {% endhint %}
What changes on my other devices when I disable the credentials sync? Your other devices will still receive all other data, but not credentials. This also means you will need to manually replicate the same set of credentials on all your devices.
When it makes sense to disable the credentials synchronization? There are a number of reasons for that. It all depends on the environment you operate in. To name a few: * Your security policy restricts credential sync * You want each device to hold its own set of credentials. However, in that case, you can also utilize the biometric SSH keys that never leave your device anyway * You don't need to sync credentials at all
I see it can be disabled for the Personal vault. What about the Team vault? The `Sync keys and identities` toggle only controls the credentials in the Personal vault. When you specify the credentials for your hosts in the Team vault, you can choose whether to share them with the team or require team members to use credentials from their Personal vault. If you choose to store your credentials in Personal vault to keep usernames/passwords/keys only locally, each team member will need to disable credentials sync accordingly.
{% hint style="danger" %} **IMPORTANT** When the `Sync keys and identities` toggle is disabled, the credentials data is not synced, and is only kept locally. If you log out and the data gets cleared, Termius won't be able to help with the data recovery. {% endhint %} ### Related concepts To understand how synced data is organized, see [Learn about vaults](/getting-started/learn-about-vaults). For encryption details, see [Encryption overview](/security/encryption-overview). # Team vaults This page explains how Termius organizes shared access to infrastructure using vaults. It covers vault structure design, managing members and permissions, and moving data between vaults. ## Overview Team vaults are the top-level organizational unit in Termius. A vault stores data and controls which team members can access it. Each vault is encrypted with a unique key. Members can access a vault only after the owner grants them permissions. Termius includes one non-shared **Personal vault** per user, and one default **Team vault** shared with all team members. Additional **custom team vaults** can be created and shared with specific team members. Members can have different permissions in different vaults: * **Can edit:** Allows creating, updating, and deleting data within the vault; adding or removing members. * **Can view:** Allows viewing data, initiating connections to hosts, and running snippets. Data cannot be modified. ## Set up your team Invite your team members to start collaborating in Termius. After that Team vault is created automatically. Use it to share and manage data with your team. {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} 1. Invite your team members. You have several options to do it. The team will be created automatically after that 1. Click the chevron on the `Vault` tab and click `Team`
2. Click the `vault selector` on the entity edit form and click `Team`
3. Click `Plus button` on `Hosts screen` near your avatar and click `Invite team members`
2. Enter your team members' emails and click `Continue`
3. Wait for your members to accept their invitations and join the team 4. Grant them access to Team vault
5. Your Team vault is ready. Follow the next steps to define the vault structure and add more vaults If you already have data in your Personal vault, you can move it to your Team vault during Team vault setup or at any time afterward. See [Add data to vaults](#add-data-to-a-vault).
{% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Create vaults ### Define the vault structure Whether you separate access by projects, clients, environments, departments, or other criteria, vaults can be configured for that use case. A few examples of how different teams organize their data using vaults: {% tabs %} {% tab title="Small startup" %}
The team structure is flat, with a small number of members and a high level of trust. * **Vaults:** A single Team vault shared with all members * **Groups:** Prod, Staging, and Development {% endtab %} {% tab title="Consulting company" %}
The team structure is client-based, where small teams or individuals work with several clients. * **Vaults:** Each client has a separate vault. Team members are added and removed from vaults depending on the projects and clients they work with * **Groups** are used to separate environments within the client's vault {% endtab %} {% tab title="Mid-size Business" %}
The team structure is functional-based, with dedicated DevOps, Developers, and QA teams. * **Vaults**: Vaults separate **Production**, **Development**, and **Staging** environments. DevOps has access to all three. Developers can access Staging and Dev, while QA can only access Staging * **Groups**: Within each vault, there are groups for different resource types, such as **Database Servers (DB)**, **Web Servers**, and **Cache** {% endtab %} {% tab title="Enterprise" %}
The team structure is functional and location-based, with infrastructure distributed across multiple regions. Access is organized by region or data center. * **Vaults**: Organized by region and team. For example, **US-East-DevOps**, **US-East-Support**, **US-West-DevOps**, **EU-Central-DevOps** * Each team structures groups to match their operational context. A data center team, for example, might organize by physical location: building, floor, room, and rack {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ### Add vault {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop " %} 1.

4. Save changes {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Security Vaults are the most secure way to share sensitive information across the team. Each vault is encrypted with a unique key, so only you and your team members with access to that vault can see and use its data. New members cannot access a vault until the owner grants access and sets their permissions. For more information about encryption and security, see [Encryption overview](/security/encryption-overview). # Team session logs This page explains how session logs work for teams in Termius. It covers accessing and reviewing other team members' logs, configuring log settings, and using bookmarks and comments. ## Overview
Session logs record terminal activity for each connection to a host. Logs are stored and synced in vaults, making them accessible to vault members. Termius stores the most recent session log for each host for each team member. This gives the team a view of who last connected to a host and what occurred during that session. ## Team access Team members can see all logs for hosts in the vaults they have access to. By default, Termius stores the most recent session log for each host for each team member. * **Editors** can view, add, and remove bookmarks and comments. * **Viewers** can only view session logs, see bookmarks, and read comments. Session logs are **read-only** and cannot be modified, moved between vaults, or deleted. ## Bookmarks Bookmarks let you save selected session logs for as long as you need, protecting them from overwriting. The comment section lets you describe what this session was about: *What were you trying to fix? Why did you roll back? What did you discover along the way? How to troubleshoot a particular issue?* {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} To bookmark the session log: 1. Open `Vault` tab > `Logs`
2. Find the session log you want to bookmark and click `Bookmark` icon
3. Write a comment about this session log (optional)
4. Click outside or `Enter` . The session log and the comment will be bookmarked and saved {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Settings Session logging can be enabled or disabled per vault. {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} 1. Open `Settings` > `Logs` 2. Click the `Enabled/Disabled` selector for the vault whose session logs you want to enable or disable
3. Confirm disabling logs
{% hint style="danger" %} Once you disable logging for a vault, existing logs will be permanently deleted from this vault. {% endhint %} {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} # What is SSH ID This page explains how SSH ID works in Termius, how it manages device-bound SSH passkeys, and how to use it to securely connect to servers without sharing private keys.
SSH ID is an easy-to-use system for managing SSH passkeys. It generates a device-bound key on each of your devices, including FIDO2 and biometric keys, and keeps all public keys synced and available at a single URL: `https://sshid.io/`. Anyone can use this URL to fetch your **public keys** and provision them on a host. ## How it works When setting up an SSH ID, you create a unique public handle (@username) that lets anyone fetch all your public keys at once. ### **On your device** * Termius generates a unique set of `device-bound` SSH keys (passkeys) * The set includes ECDSA-SK (hardware key protected with biometrics), ECDSA, ED25519, and RSA (for legacy devices) * Each key is signed by your unique certificate and can be verified {% hint style="info" %} The private parts of the keys generated with SSH ID never leave your device. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} Public parts are pushed to the server and are `publicly` available via your handle, along with certificates at [sshid.io/\](https://sshid.io/%3Cyour_handle%3E). {% endhint %} ### **On your servers** Once the SSH ID is set up, you can add all your public keys from all devices using one single command. `curl https://sshid.io/ >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys` This allows you to connect from all your devices using device-bound keys. *** Proceed to [Setup & usage](/ssh-id-passkeys-for-ssh/setup-and-usage) to enable SSH ID for your Termius account. See [SSH ID Security](/ssh-id-passkeys-for-ssh/ssh-id-security) for the security model and verification details. *** ## FAQ
Why do I need a Termius account to use SSH ID? An account is required because SSH ID relies on your Termius account to sync public keys securely across all your devices. Without it, SSH ID can't make your identity available from multiple devices. Your private keys never leave your device, only the latest public keys are synchronized.
Why the public keys are accessible online publicly? Only the `public keys` are accessible online via the handle that you specified during the SSH ID setup. The corresponding private keys never leave devices where they were generated.
Can I remove a particular key from the SSH ID profile? The keys in your profile are device-bound. New keys are generated every time you login with your Termius account on a new device. To remove particular keys, you need to log out from your account on the corresponding devices.
How can I regenerate the keys generated for SSH ID? To regenerate the keys, you need to log out and then log back in on your devices. The new public keys should be then provisioned to the affected servers.

{% hint style="warning" %} Don't forget to update the `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` files on your servers to clean it up from the no longer usable public keys associated with your previous SSH ID. {% endhint %} # SSH ID Security This page explains the security model of SSH ID, including how device-bound passkeys, biometric protection, and certificate verification ensure secure access to your servers.
SSH ID is an easy-to-use system for managing SSH passkeys. It generates and aggregates `device-bound` passkeys, including FIDO2 and biometric keys, so you can connect to servers without copying or sharing private keys. ## Device-bound SSH ID passkeys are private keys generated and stored on your computer or phone. They never leave your device and cannot be copied or exported. Only public keys are synced to your vault and published under your specified handle for you to easier update your `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` files. ## Biometric-protected SSH ID works with Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello, and FIDO2. When using ECDSA-SK, every connection requires your biometric or presence confirmation. {% hint style="warning" %} ### Use a strong system password on your device Across all major modern operating systems, biometrics are a convenience layer, not a replacement for the master cryptographic key. Because of how hardware-level encryption works, none of these platforms allow you to disable the PIN, password, or pattern fallback. If a biometric sensor fails, gets damaged, or the device reboots, you must have a fallback to decrypt the data. * **On Desktop:** The default system login password is already alphanumeric, so your fallback is as secure as you choose to make it * **On Mobile:** It is highly recommended to configure a custom alphanumeric password rather than a standard 4-digit or 6-digit PIN to maximize fallback security {% endhint %} ## Every passkey can be verified Every SSH ID user has a unique CA key pair created by Termius on the device. Every passkey generated for SSH ID is signed using your CA private key on the device. Your SSH ID public page contains the CA public key as well as certificates for each key. You can use this information to verify that each and every public key in the SSH ID was generated by Termius. ## Verification procedure The verification process relies exclusively on the standard OpenSSH tooling (`ssh-keygen`). ### Prerequisites * `user_cert.pub` - the user's public certificate * `key.pub` - a device public key * `key_cert.pub` - the certificate for that key In future Termius versions, the above info can be obtained from `https://sshid.io/` or the SSH ID screen in the app. ### Verification 1. Verify user identity 1. Run `ssh-keygen -lvf user_cert.pub` 2. Compare the resulting SHA256 fingerprint or the `Randomart` visualization against the values displayed on the SSH.id page or in the Termius app 2. Verify the key was signed by the user 1. Run `ssh-keygen -L -f key_cert.pub` to extract the signer fingerprint from the key certificate 2. Locate the line: `Signing CA: SHA256:` 3. Obtain the fingerprint of the user certificate `ssh-keygen -lf user_cert.pub` 4. Compare SHA256 fingerprints. They should be identical 3. Verify that the Certificate belongs to the key 1. Run `ssh-keygen -lf key.pub` 2. Run `ssh-keygen -lf key_cert.pub` 3. Compare SHA256 fingerprints. They should be identical These three steps confirm that the certificate was issued for that exact public key. # Integration with AWS This page explains how to automatically import your servers into Termius and keep them up to date as your infrastructure changes. {% hint style="info" icon="sparkle" %} **Who can use this feature:** * **Subscriptions:** Pro, Team, Business, and Enterprise * **Set up:** macOS, Windows and Linux. * **Imported hosts available:** macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android {% endhint %} ## Overview This integration securely imports EC2 and Lightsail servers into a group in Termius that automatically updates to reflect the changes in your AWS environment.

After successful SSO authentication, the app still requires the encryption password to access vaults. The app uses a modified SRP6a protocol to communicate with the server without sending the password or password hash over the network.
To complete the authentication, the client and the Termius Cloud must prove that each party has the same key: 1. The cloud sends the client a random piece of data, a salt to be used with the Argon2id password hash algorithm, and a user identifier. 2. The client sends the cloud a random piece of data and a client proof. 3. The cloud sends the client a server proof, an encrypted API Key, and a salt. 4. The client validates the server proof and decrypts the API Key. ## Personal vault Termius uses a hybrid encryption approach for the Personal vault. The key steps of the encryption algorithm are below: 1. Termius generates a random key pair during account creation. 2. Using the key pair, the app generates the user's personal encryption key. 3. The personal encryption key is used to encrypt all user data, such as hosts, groups, and keys. 4. The private key is encrypted using the user's encryption password. 5. The app syncs the encrypted key via Termius Cloud to other devices. Your encryption password always stays with you. It is never stored alongside your data, and never sent over the network. No one can read data in the Personal vault without the encryption password. {% hint style="danger" %} If you lose your encryption password, you won't be able to recover the data. Make sure to save your encryption password in a password manager. {% endhint %} ## Team vault and custom team vaults
Termius uses a hybrid encryption approach for all team vaults. #### On the team member's side 1. When a team member joins Termius, the app generates a key pair. It is used for their Personal vault; see above. 2. Each team member's public key is then shared with the team owner. #### On the team owner's side 1. When a team owner invites a team member, Termius generates a separate encryption key for the Team vault and custom team vaults. 2. Termius encrypts the vault encryption keys using the team member's public key. Termius uses the team owner's private key to create the MAC. 3. Encrypted vault keys are then sent to team members via the Termius cloud. #### On the team member's side 1. Termius sends encrypted vault keys to all members with access to these vaults. 2. The app decrypts vault keys with the member's private key stored in their Personal vault and uses the team owner's public key to verify the MAC. ## Technical details Termius uses Libsodium version [1.0.20](https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium/tree/1.0.20) and a custom C++ binding for iOS, Android, and Desktop applications. Termius uses the following APIs in Libsodium: * For public-key encryption: crypto\_box\_keypair, crypto\_box\_easy, and crypto\_box\_open\_easy use the X25519 key exchange, XSalsa20 stream cipher, and Poly1305 MAC. * For secret-key encryption: crypto\_secretbox\_keygen, crypto\_secretbox\_easy, crypto\_secretbox\_open\_easy – it uses the XSalsa20 stream cipher and the Poly1305 MAC. * For password hashing: crypto\_pwhash with options: `OPSLIMIT_INTERACTIVE`, `MEMLIMIT_INTERACTIVE`, and ARGON2ID13. * For generating a nonce: randombytes\_buf. Termius uses the SRP implementation from [Botan](https://botan.randombit.net/) and [gRPC](https://grpc.io/) over TLS as the transport for the SRP protocol. Termius uses Botan version [3.2.0](https://github.com/randombit/botan/tree/3.2.0) and a custom C++ binding for iOS, Android, and Desktop applications.
The encryption key and key pair are stored on devices, namely in: * iOS: [Keychain](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/keychain_services). * Android: shared preferences, encrypted by a key stored in Android [Keystore](https://developer.android.com/training/articles/keystore). * Desktop: Electron IndexedDB encrypted by a key stored in [OS Keychain](https://github.com/atom/node-keytar) when Keychain is available and in [localStorage](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/localStorage) as a fallback. If you have any security concerns, you can write to us at . # Post-Quantum Cryptography This page explains how Termius supports post-quantum cryptography (PQC), including key exchange and authentication methods, as well as compatibility with existing SSH servers. Termius supports Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) to protect data against potential future quantum computing threats, in accordance with NIST FIPS 203 (ML-KEM) and FIPS 204 (ML-DSA) standards. ### Key Exchange (KEX) Support Termius supports both standalone ML-KEM and hybrid modes that combine classical Elliptic Curve cryptography with quantum-resistant algorithms. * Hybrid Mode: `mlkem768x25519-sha256` (Combines PQ + X25519) * Standalone ML-KEM: `mlkem512-sha256`, `mlkem768-sha256`, `mlkem1024-sha384` ### Authentication (ML-DSA) Termius supports ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) for host and user authentication. * Host Keys: `ssh-mldsa-44`, `ssh-mldsa-65`, `ssh-mldsa-87` * User Keys: Support for ML-DSA SSH keys at levels 44, 65, and 87. ### Compatibility and Fallback * **Server Support:** Use of these algorithms requires the connected SSH server to also support FIPS 203 and FIPS 204. * **Automatic Fallback:** If the server does not support ML-KEM or ML-DSA, the application reverts to mutually supported classical algorithms (such as Ed25519 or RSA). *** ### Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Post-Quantum Cryptography? PQC refers to cryptographic algorithms designed to be secure against the processing power of quantum computers. A large-scale quantum computer could theoretically break current classical algorithms (RSA, ECC).
Why use a hybrid algorithm? A hybrid algorithm like `mlkem768x25519-sha256` uses both a classical method and a post-quantum method. This ensures the connection remains secure even if one of the two algorithms is found to have a vulnerability.
Does PQC affect connection process? ML-KEM and ML-DSA keys and signatures are larger than those of classical ECC. This increases the amount of data sent during the initial handshake, which may result in a small increase in connection setup time depending on network conditions. {% hint style="warning" %} On some older systems, the larger handshake can cause the connection handshake to fail and disconnect the session early. In such a case, you can disable the use of the PQC algorithms in Termius settings. {% endhint %}
How do I enable these algorithms? Termius includes these algorithms in its default SSH algorithm list. If the server supports them, Termius uses them automatically. You only need manual configuration if you want to allow only PQC algorithms on the server side.

# SAML SSO This page explains how to set up and use SAML SSO in Termius, including authentication flow, encryption password requirements, and configuration with identity providers. ## Overview SAML SSO enables organizations to authenticate users in Termius through an external identity provider (IdP). Instead of managing separate credentials for Termius, users sign in using the same identity system already used across the organization. This approach centralizes authentication, simplifies user management, and aligns Termius access with existing security and compliance policies. {% hint style="info" %} SAML SSO is available as an add-on in the Termius Business plan. {% endhint %} ### Set up encryption password Even when signing in with SAML SSO, you still need to set up an **encryption password** in Termius. This password is used to encrypt and decrypt your data within the Termius app, including credentials, SSH keys, and more. It is separate from your SSO login and is never shared with your identity provider. Your SAML SSO credentials authenticate your account, while the encryption password protects your data. {% hint style="warning" %} Store your encryption password in a password manager. If you forget it and need to reset it, **Termius** **won't be able to decrypt your data**. This means you will lose access to your data and have to start from scratch. {% endhint %} {% hint style="info" %} Find more information about how encryption works in Termius in the [Encryption overview](/security/encryption-overview). {% endhint %} *** ## SAML SSO providers in Termius Termius uses WorkOS to provide support for a variety of SAML SSO providers. Major providers include Google, Okta, OneLogin, Microsoft Azure Active Directory, Auth0, Duo Security, and many others. If your preferred SAML SSO provider is not listed, you can opt for Custom SAML SSO or Custom OpenID configurations.

*** ## Set up SAML SSO
SAML SSO is available only as an add-on to the Business plan. To **set up** SAML SSO: 1. Navigate to the [account management portal](https://account.termius.com/) > `SAML SSO` 2. Click `Configure now` 3. Add your domain(s), then click `Configure now` 4. On the WorkOS setup page, select your identity provider from the list and follow the instructions You can make changes to your configuration in `SAML SSO` > `Configure Provider` within the WorkOS settings page. ### Test your SAML SSO configuration with Termius By default, once SAML SSO is set up, your account is in the hybrid mode - you already can use SAML SSO but you still have an option to log in with email and encryption password as a fallback. **To test your SAML SSO configuration:** 1. Ensure the test session on the WorkOS side passes successfully 2. Log out of your Termius account 3. Click `Continue with SAML SSO` on the login page 4. Enter your work email address and click `Continue` 5. You will be redirected to your identity provider's login page. Enter your credentials and log in 6. If the configuration is successful, you will be redirected back to Termius and logged in via SAML SSO {% hint style="success" %} After the successful test, you can **enforce** SAML SSO for your team by enabling the `Require to log in with SSO` toggle. {% endhint %} ## Disable SAML SSO You have an option to disable SAML SSO temporarily or completely. If you have issues with your provider and want to disable SAML SSO only temporarily, just disable the toggle `Require to log in with SSO`.

# Is it possible to reset the Encryption Password without losing data? Data recovery is not possible if you lose your Encryption Password. Termius stores all user data in an encrypted Vault. Your password acts as the encryption key for that Vault. If you lose it, you cannot open the Vault. Even the Termius staff cannot recover the data, because the system is designed this way. The Vault is a core part of the product and it adds another layer of protection for your data. At the same time, passwords can be forgotten. We plan to add more safeguards to reduce that risk in more cases. If you lost your Encryption Password, you can remove the existing Vault and create a new one in the [account management portal](https://account.termius.com/forgot-password). To learn more about encryption in Termius, see [Encryption overview](/security/encryption-overview). # How can I keep Termius sessions alive in the background on iOS/iPadOS? This article explains why sessions disconnect and port forwarding stops after you send the app to the background on iOS or iPadOS. It also covers a few ways to reduce the impact. Termius, like most other apps, cannot keep running in the background because of iOS and iPadOS restrictions. Recent versions stop background activity almost immediately, usually within 20 to 30 seconds. Older versions could allow it for 2 to 3 minutes. These restrictions help preserve battery life and device performance. They can also interrupt SSH sessions and port forwarding. Here are a few ways to work around that. ### Location tracking When you connect in Termius, the app logs the session. This log gives you an activity history and lets you add previous sessions as hosts. If you enable location tracking, you can also see where a connection was made on a map. As a side effect, background connections are less likely to be interrupted. ### Split view on iPad On iPad, you can use [Split View](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207582) to keep Termius open alongside another app. ### screen / tmux [`screen`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen) or [`tmux`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmux) can preserve your terminal session if the connection drops. However, they do not help if the app goes to the background while port forwarding is active. `tmux` and `screen` may not be available on some devices, especially routers and switches. **Note:** You can use a startup snippet to launch `tmux` or `screen` automatically when you connect. To learn more, see [Snippets](/terminal/snippets). # What will happen when my Pro subscription expires? When your Pro subscription expires, Pro features are disabled. This includes synchronization, so changes you make in the app are no longer synced to your Termius cloud vault. Those changes remain stored locally on your device. {% hint style="danger" %} If you log out with unsynced changes, those changes will be lost. {% endhint %} # How does Termius detect a leaked Encryption Password? When you set a new Encryption Password for your account, Termius can check whether it appeared in known data breaches by using the [haveibeenpwned.com](https://haveibeenpwned.com/Privacy) service, or HIBP. {% hint style="info" %} Termius never sends the original password in plain text or enough information to reveal it. {% endhint %} The Termius app sends the first 5 characters of the SHA-1 hash of the user-provided password to the HIBP API, following [Cloudflare's k-anonymity model](https://blog.cloudflare.com/validating-leaked-passwords-with-k-anonymity/). For example, take the password `pa$word`: * The SHA-1 hash of the password is `617ADCC02712A40E76254BA1F3A26AF660F98EC7`. * The first 5 characters of that hash are `617AD`. * The remaining characters are `CC02712A40E76254BA1F3A26AF660F98EC7`. * HIBP returns the possible matches for that prefix at . * Then Termius checks whether the remainder listed above appears in the response. ``` ... CC02712A40E76254BA1F3A26AF660F98EC7:96 ... ``` This means the password appeared in 96 known breaches. # Resellers FAQ Termius works with resellers regularly. Below are answers to common reseller questions.
What is the price for resellers' cost and is there a reseller discount? We do not sell Pro, Team, or Business subscriptions through resellers. Resellers can offer the Enterprise plan with a minimum of 10 seats.

# How can I cancel the trial? ### Desktop — Windows, Linux, macOS On desktop, the trial starts automatically when you create an account or activate any team feature. The trial is free and does not renew automatically, so you do not need to cancel it in advance. When the trial ends, you can switch to the Starter plan, stay on your previous plan, or upgrade to a team subscription. ### iOS On iOS, the trial is managed by Apple through your Apple ID account. {% hint style="warning" %} You will be charged automatically when the trial ends. {% endhint %} You can cancel your trial or subscription in the App Store on your iPhone or iPad. For step-by-step instructions, see the Apple guide: ### Android On Android, the trial is managed by Google through your Google account. {% hint style="warning" %} You will be charged automatically when the trial ends. {% endhint %} You can cancel your trial or subscription in the Google Play app on your Android device. For step-by-step instructions, see the Google Play guide: # How can I request a refund? Refund requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis under the company Terms of Use. If you forgot to cancel a subscription purchased on our website, you can request a refund using [this form](https://support.termius.com/hc/en-us/requests/new). If you purchased through the App Store, Google Play, or Microsoft Store, follow the relevant instructions: * [App Store](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204084) * [Google Play](https://support.google.com/googleplay/workflow/9813244?hl=en) * [Microsoft Store](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-billing/returning-items-you-bought-from-microsoft-store-for-exchange-or-refund-81629012-aa4f-f48b-2394-8596f415072b) {% hint style="info" %} Unfortunately, Termius cannot issue refunds for subscriptions purchased through a third-party store. Store policies require refunds to be handled by the store directly. {% endhint %} # How can I get Termius for free with GitHub Student Developer Pack? ### Get Termius for free as a student Termius offers free access to students and educators through the GitHub Student Developer Pack. To claim your benefits, follow these steps: #### 1. Verify Your GitHub Status First, you need a verified GitHub Education account. If you have not done this yet, follow the [official GitHub Student Developer Pack guide](https://education.github.com/pack) to get started. #### 2. Wait for Activation There is a difference between **Verified** and **Activated**. GitHub may approve your application first, but partner offers like Termius are only available after your status is fully activated. This can take a few days. #### 3. Link to Termius Once your GitHub Education access is active, you can link it to your Termius account: * Log in to your [Termius Account Dashboard](https://account.termius.com/). * Open the **Students** page. * Select the option to connect your GitHub account. # How to set a default SFTP path? Termius does not support this directly yet, but you can apply a server-side workaround to get the same result. 1. Open the `sshd_config` file on the server you connect to. 2. Add `-d ""` to the end of the line that starts with `Subsystem sftp`. {% hint style="success" %} Example: `Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/sftp-server -d "/home/"` {% endhint %} # How can I hide the AI widget? Termius can generate commands from plain-language descriptions. On iOS, this happens through the AI widget above the keyboard in the terminal. On desktop, it is part of shell integration and Autocomplete. See [Shell Integration and Autocomplete](/terminal/autocomplete-and-shell-integration). {% tabs %} {% tab title="iOS/iPadOS" %} To hide the AI widget on iOS or iPadOS: 1. Open `Termius > Profile > Settings`. 2. Turn on `Hide the AI widget` in the `Terminal` section. {% endtab %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} To disable AI suggestions that convert text into commands, you need to disable Autocomplete completely. 1. Open `Termius > Settings > Terminal`. 2. Turn off `Autocomplete`. {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} # Why am I required to create an account? Some versions of Termius allowed users to skip account creation. However, account creation has been part of Termius from day one. Can you use Termius without an account? Yes. You can log out and use Termius locally without one. On a new installation, you can sign in with an existing account or create a new one. New accounts start a trial, so you can evaluate Pro, Team, and Business features. Not all features are available on the free plan. {% hint style="success" %} To encrypt and sync your data with your cloud vault, you need an account and a subscription. {% endhint %} # Can Termius be localized to other languages? The app interface currently supports English only. Termius is considering localization for other languages, but there is no confirmed timeline yet. # Troubleshooting

*** # Port Forwarding or SSH connections stop working when switching apps on Android This can happen when battery optimization is enabled for Termius. In that mode, Android may restrict background activity and stop SSH sessions or port forwarding after you switch apps. To keep SSH sessions and port forwarding active in the background, disable battery optimization for Termius. Open your Android app settings, find **Termius**, turn off **battery optimization**, and allow **unrestricted** background usage. # My App Store subscription is not active If you purchased a Termius subscription in the App Store but cannot access Pro features, follow these steps to link the subscription to your Termius account. ### Ensure the proper Apple ID is used Some people use multiple Apple IDs. App Store subscriptions only work with apps downloaded using the same Apple ID. This often happens when the app is installed with one Apple ID and the subscription is purchased with another. If that happened, follow the steps below. #### Ensure sync is working for your account Make sure you have an active Pro trial so your data syncs again after reinstalling the app. If you do not have an active Pro trial and want to avoid losing not synced data, please [contact the support team](https://support.termius.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=900001336483). #### Reinstall the app * Remove the app from your device. * In the App Store, sign in with the Apple ID used to purchase the subscription. * Reinstall Termius. Once the Apple IDs match, you can restore the subscription. {% hint style="warning" %} If you are using Termius beta from **Testflight**, the re-installation step must be done. Subscription purchasing and restoration don't work with Testflight. {% endhint %} ### Restoring subscription Once the app is installed with the same Apple ID used for the subscription purchase, restore the subscription. * Open **Settings** in Termius. * Make sure you are signed in to your Termius account. * Go to **Account** and tap **Restore Subscription**. This fetches the subscription details again and tries to link them to your account. * If restoration still does not work, please [contact the support team](https://support.termius.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=900001336483). \
# I can't log in or synchronize data If you cannot log in to Termius or synchronize your data, and you see a spinner or an error message, check the following: 1. Make sure your firewall allows incoming and outgoing traffic for these domains: **api.termius.com**, **grpc.termius.com**, **account.termius.com**, **termius.com**, and **termi.us**. Also make sure these domains are reachable from your network. 2. Check whether your network performs TLS interception. This can break the **WebSocket** connection. If needed, add an exception for Termius domains. 3. Make sure the connection to **grpc.termius.com** uses HTTP/2. Termius requires it to work correctly. If the issue persists, please [submit a support request](https://support.termius.com/hc/en-us/requests/new). # I can't enter some characters (pipe, backslash, etc.) in the terminal If characters like `|` or `\` do not work in the terminal, the **Option** key is usually mapped as **Meta**. When this setting is enabled, some special characters may not be sent as expected. Disable **Use Option as Meta key** for your platform: {% tabs %} {% tab title="macOS" %} 1. Open **Termius** → **Settings**. 2. In the Terminal section, disable **Use Option as Meta key**. {% endtab %} {% tab title="iOS/iPadOS" %} 1. Open the system **Settings**. 2. In the **Keyboard** section, turn off **Use Option as Meta key**. {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} After you disable this setting, try entering the character again in the terminal. # I can't connect to a local device on iOS or macOS If you cannot connect to a host on your local network from iOS, iPadOS, or macOS, make sure Termius has the `Local Network` permission: 1. Open the system **Settings**. 2. Find **Termius** in the list of apps. 3. Make sure **Local Network** is enabled for Termius. If this permission is disabled, Termius cannot connect to devices on your local network. For more details about the `Local Network` permission, see [Apple's documentation](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211870). # I get a 'host is unreachable' error on iOS There are two possible workarounds for this issue. {% stepper %} {% step %} #### Check if the Local Network permission is granted Open the system **Settings**, find **Termius**, and make sure `Local Network` is enabled. For more details, see [I can't connect to a local device on iOS or macOS](/help-center/troubleshooting/i-cant-connect-to-a-local-device-on-ios-or-macos). Try connecting again. If you still get the same error, continue to the next step. {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Switch to the Experimental Connection Process Open **Termius** → **Profile** → **Settings**. In the **Sessions** section, enable **Experimental Connection Process**. This uses a different hostname resolution process, which may resolve the issue. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %} # I can't find the local terminal option in the desktop app If you installed Termius from the Mac App Store or via Snap, the app runs in a sandbox. Because of that restriction, it cannot access your local drive. As a result, the local terminal option is unavailable, and you also cannot browse your local system over SFTP. To use these features, download Termius [from our website](https://termius.com/download) instead. {% hint style="info" %} **Quick tip:** The shortcut to open the local terminal is `Cmd+L` on macOS and `Ctrl+L` on Windows and Linux. {% endhint %} # Connection drops after a successful authentication In some cases, the session may disconnect immediately after authentication or a few seconds later. One possible cause is how the SSH server handles OS detection or shell history fetching for terminal autocomplete. Some Termius features use SSH `exec` channels by running commands right after the connection is established. You can confirm this in the connection log by looking for the `⚙️ Executing command` entry near the end. If that is the cause, disable the features that rely on SSH `exec` channels. {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} Open **Termius** → **Settings** → **Terminal** and disable: * Autocomplete * Import shell history * Detect OS {% endtab %} {% tab title="Mobile" %} Open **Termius** → **Profile** → **Settings** and disable: * Import command history * Detect Host Operating System {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} # Serial connections don't work on Microsoft Windows Store builds In some cases, you may see a blank terminal screen when you try to open a serial connection in the Microsoft Windows Store version of Termius. At the moment, there are two workarounds: * Reinstall Termius from our website: [termius.com/download](https://termius.com/download) * Install Termius Beta alongside the main app: [termius.com/beta-program](https://termius.com/beta-program) # I'm unable to link my GitHub account Students can use Termius for free through the [GitHub Student Developer Pack](https://termius.com/education). ### GitHub Student Developer Pack Activation Termius uses GitHub’s verification system to grant student access. If you have been approved by GitHub but still cannot access your benefits, please keep the following in mind: * **Status requirement:** GitHub uses two states for student accounts: **Approved** and **Activated**. Termius benefits apply only after your status changes to **Activated**. * **Sync delay:** There may be a delay between systems. It can take up to a few days for GitHub to send the updated status to Termius. #### Troubleshooting Steps 1. Sign in to your [GitHub Student Developer Pack](https://education.github.com/pack) dashboard and confirm that your status is **Activated**. 2. If your status changed recently, wait up to 72 hours before trying to link your account with Termius again. # I can't connect to a host This page covers common reasons host connections fail and the steps to troubleshoot them. ## Host is unreachable ### Double-check the IP address and port Sometimes the issue is just a typo in the host address or a missing custom SSH port. Open the host details and make sure the address and port are correct. ### Check the Local Network permissions on iOS and macOS If you cannot connect to a host on your local network from iOS, iPadOS, or macOS, make sure Termius has the `Local Network` permission: 1. Open the system **Settings**. 2. Find **Termius** in the list of apps. 3. Make sure **Local Network** is enabled for Termius. If this permission is disabled, Termius cannot connect to devices on your local network. For more details about the `Local Network` permission, see [Apple's documentation](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211870). ### Try switching to the Experimental Connection Process on iOS If `Local Network` is already enabled and the issue persists: 1. Open **Termius** → **Profile** → **Settings**. 2. In the **Sessions** section, enable **Experimental Connection Process**. This uses a different hostname resolution process, which may resolve the issue. ## Can't establish SSH connection SSH connections can fail at several stages during the connection process. ### Issues with Key Exchange In some cases, the connection drops right after the `Starting SSH session` step. In others, it gets a bit further but fails during key exchange and never reaches authentication. **Why this might happen?** Termius supports [post-quantum cryptography](/security/post-quantum-cryptography). This increases the amount of data sent during the initial handshake. Depending on the network, it may slightly increase connection setup time. {% hint style="warning" %} On some older systems, the larger initial handshake can fail and cause a premature disconnection. {% endhint %} **How to fix it?** Try disabling post-quantum key exchange during connection. 1. Open **Termius** → **Settings**. 2. In the **Terminal** section, disable **Post-Quantum Key Exchange**. ### Authentication by public key fails If you are sure the correct key is configured, the public key is present in the server's `authorized_keys` file, and authentication still fails with `Private key is empty` or a similar error, check how the key is configured in Termius. **Make sure you imported the key into Termius and linked it to the correct host** — [SSH with an SSH key](/organize-and-connect-to-hosts/connecting-to-a-server#ssh-with-an-ssh-key). It is easy to assume you can enter a local file path to the private key, or leave the key unlinked and let the app try all available keys automatically. Termius does not work that way. Termius provides a consistent experience across desktop and mobile, especially when sync is enabled. That requires connection data to be stored in your Termius vault. For public key authentication to work, the key must be imported into the app and linked with the corresponding hosts. ## Connection drops immediately after a successful authentication In some cases, the session may disconnect immediately after authentication or a few seconds later. One possible cause is how the SSH server handles how Termius performs the host's OS detection or shell history fetching for terminal autocomplete. Some Termius features use SSH `exec` channels to run commands right after the connection is established. You can confirm this by looking for the `⚙️ Executing command` entry near the end of the connection log. It's a common problem when you use Termius to connect to routers and switches, affecting Cisco, Ruckus, SonicWall, and other devices. Not all devices support SSH exec channels. In other cases, the ssh server may be setup in a way allowing only one channel to be opened per session. If this issue looks similar to yours, disable the features that rely on SSH `exec` channels. {% tabs %} {% tab title="Desktop" %} Open **Termius** → **Settings** → **Terminal** and disable: * Autocomplete * Import shell history * Detect OS {% endtab %} {% tab title="Mobile" %} Open **Termius** → **Profile** → **Settings** and disable: * Import command history * Detect Host Operating System {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Invalid user on Palo Alto Networks devices There are cases when, after a successful authentication on Palo Alto devices, you immediately see an error in the terminal: `Invalid user. Please login using a valid account`. The reason you see it is similar to the one described above in [Connection drops after a successful authentication](/help-center/troubleshooting/connection-drops-after-a-successful-authentication), and the solution is the same: disable the features that rely on `exec` channels (Autocomplete, Import shell history, and Detect OS). ## I can't connect using SFTP, but SSH connections work {% hint style="info" %} Sometimes **SFTP** is confused with **FTP** or **SCP**. They are different protocols, even if some apps present them in a similar way. {% endhint %} The main troubleshooting step is to make sure SFTP is enabled in the `sshd_config` file on your server.
