Comments on ConnectBot for Android

★★★★★ This is a great SSH app. I've been using it for years, and it always does what I want, no complaints. It does have a couple minor bugs and a few things I wish worked differently (the interface for keys is a little odd), but hey, it's open source, so if you don't like it, go fix it yourself. I have!
★★★★★ Works, is simple and compact, no features I don't need, I use it both as terminal app for my phone as well as to ssh to my devices when I just need to check some logs.
★★★★★ Works great, but I have some problems with text size, scrolling the terminal and copying text. I have to move to another SSH client. It is free without string attached, though.
★★☆☆☆ Doesn't support via, aka proxy. Scenario connect to virtual machine on private network
★★☆☆☆ Crashes Google Messages on NUU A15 (S6512L), Droid 13, security 2023-11-05. Had only two other apps loaded on new phone, and installing this started crashing Messages. Restart, no love. Uninstalled this, and Messages working fine again. Sad, because I've loved this app on my prior phones.
★★☆☆☆ I rated this one star for a single reason: non-monospace font and no way to change it. Otherwise, it's a five-star app.
★★☆☆☆ Crashes when using tab function and whenever I try to re attach screen session it crashes and forces clear cache
★★☆☆☆ Forces portrait with soft keyboard, truncates key and query for new hosts, so you can't see what you need to, forces landscape the moment a physical keyboard is connected. That's 1 questionable, 1 definite bug, & 1 major irritation in the first minute of use. No, thanks!
