La Terminal is a mobile-first SSH client built by Xibbon, Inc. (from the creator of Midnight Commander) on top of the open-source SwiftTerm library. Rather than wrapping a web-based terminal in a shell, it delivers a genuinely native touch experience on iPhone and iPad, with a rebuild for Apple Vision Pro that targets spatial computing.
For everyday command-line work, it bundles a native SFTP client for moving files, resource monitors with CPU, memory and disk visualisations, a command search that scans your history and a workflow gallery, plus inline images so plots and graphics appear inside the terminal. An AI assistant, El Copiloto, helps you write Linux, macOS or Windows commands from plain English. It is host-platform aware, so it feels at home whether you're managing Linux VMs, logging into a Mac, or configuring a Raspberry Pi — and it is Windows-aware for PowerShell users too.
Security and continuity are handled thoughtfully: private keys are stored in the secure enclave so they are never plain text, and iCloud sync lets you move between iPhone, iPad and Vision Pro. La Terminal offers a free download with a paid Pro tier and is available on the Apple App Store.
