Prompt is the terminal that goes where you do, whether you’re on the road or at your desk. With Panic Sync, your servers are available on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. And with Mosh and Eternal Terminal support, you can stay connected even on the most unstable networks.

Welcome to Prompt 3. For over a decade, Prompt has been the best SSH terminal on iOS and iPadOS, and we’re excited to finally release a much-requested Mac version. But that’s not all. With two new connection types, port forwarding, and a faster terminal, Prompt is better than ever.

• Superfast SSH
We retooled the text engine in Prompt 3 to be up to 10x faster, and with improved terminal emulation, you can run nvim inside tmux without breaking a sweat.

• Clips
Put your most-used commands and text bits into clips and access them with a single tap via Prompt’s keyboard bar. Clips can be stored globally or per-server.

• Secure Enclave
Authenticate with FaceID and TouchID. The keys will stay secure on your device.

• Panic Sync
Sync your favorite servers, passwords, private keys, and clips, between Prompt on all of your iOS devices.

• Customizable
Make Prompt perfect with new themes, fonts, and a very configurable iOS keyboard.

• Jump Hosts and Agent Forwarding
Access corporate servers, even at the beach.

• Mosh and Eternal Terminal
Keep your terminal open, even when you get disconnected. Mosh is optimized for high-latency, low-throughput networks. Eternal Terminal is great for when you need to keep your full terminal history on a flaky connection.

• Mouse Support
Use your mouse to interact with TUI-based apps that run through the terminal.

AND YES, A DARK ICON. What more can we say?

TAKE CONTROL FROM ANYWHERE, NOW INCLUDING YOUR MAC.
WE HOPE YOU ENJOY PROMPT 3.

Not long after paying for "Prompt 2" which was marketed as a perpetual license with upgrades, it developed a severe, app-breaking bug where the terminal display would get vertically out of 'sync' with the character data. Prompt support indicated that this bug would be fixed in a future version. Turns out the future version was Prompt 3, a paid upgrade and VERY expensive. So the app basically never worked for me an now I have to pay again to fix it? Very well: you have successfully swindled me. But you won't do it a second time. I would attempt to get a refund but months have passed and its too late now.

I bought Prompt 2 a long time ago for a high price. They advertised it as "pay once a good price and have it forever," so I trusted them. I was happy with the app, but a few years later, they started to release updates very rarely. A year without security updates made me think I needed an alternative app. Next, they just deleted the app from AppStore, and it will stop working on a major iOS update one day. That will likely happen to the Prompt 3 and next version too. They decided to sell it again as Prompt 3, promising a lifetime license again? I moved to Shellfish, and the developer's efforts have made it excellent and much more feature-rich and I won’t come back to Prompt 3, 4, 5..

I’m giving this 3 stars instead of 1 just out of my long-term loyalty to Panic’s amazing software, and my hope that they’ll fix the issues. But as it is, Prompt 3 is unusable for me. I think the problems started when I imported a color palette from the Mac version. Now, even after switching back to a default palette, the terminal window is just black-on-black. The only reason I can tell it’s working at all is that some of the text has white underlines. Then after a few seconds, the app crashes. I’m just glad I still have Prompt 2. I’ll try the app again in a few months and maybe it will be better. I just wish they’d spend some time fixing the long-standing bugs and interface glitches in their Mac apps, but I’ve stopped bothering to submit bug reports.
