I think this is a very cool effort. Sorry you got downvoted to oblivion (probably because of the "vibe-coded" feel of the website and website copy, etc.) I'll try it out! Question for you — what is your security model? It seems like this only supports local network access, is that correct?

thanks for giving it a try. it isn't limited to local networks. Remux connects directly over ssh to any machine reachable from the iPhone, including thru a private network such as tailscale.

I don't know much about the SSH this app uses (Citadel) which uses NIOSSH under the hood. I prefer using Mosh (https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh) for mobile apps where connectivity is often spotty. Does NIOSSH use a model that accounts for that?

NIOSSH itself doesn't include Mosh support, so adding it would require a mosh client. i didn't include it in the initial beta, because mosh isn't direct fit for tmux control mode, which requires an ordered raw byte stream. i'm planning to add mosh for standalone terminal sessions tho.

I have been wanting for something like this, today I use a PWA running off Tailscale on my device for simplicity, but a native app would be nice.

What PWA are you currently using?

My own fork of this https://github.com/tiann/hapi with Tailscale and less features I don't need
