Ravelon: SSH & SFTP

Ravelon is a native SSH and SFTP workspace for iPhone and iPad. Save a host once, then open it as a terminal, file browser or local tunnel.

TERMINAL

Keep several SSH sessions open and switch between them without losing scrollback or a running command. A dedicated key row puts Escape, Tab, Ctrl shortcuts, arrows and common shell characters within reach.

FILES

Browse remote directories over SFTP, preview and edit text files, rename entries, create folders, and upload or download through the Files app. Transfers show progress and can be cancelled individually.

CONNECTIONS

Use passwords, Ed25519 or ECDSA keys, ProxyJump hosts and optional keepalives. Save local port-forwarding rules and start them when you need access to a remote service.

SECURITY

Credentials and host settings are sealed in a local AES-256-GCM vault. Ravelon pins SSH host fingerprints on first connection and gives changed fingerprints a separate warning. Imported key passphrases stay in the device Keychain and vault.

WORKFLOW

Organize hosts into groups, add tags and icons, import OpenSSH config blocks, and save command snippets with variables. Dangerous snippets require confirmation before they are sent.

Ravelon works locally without an account. To sync encrypted workspaces with Ravelon Desktop and additional devices, you can unlock Ravelon Pro permanently for your account with one optional In-App Purchase – no subscription. Self-hosted sync is also available. Usage analytics are off by default and are sent only after explicit consent.
