Does anyone know of a trustworthy Android 13+ SSH client app that can actually import private keys? It appears most of the clients that exist were never updated to deal with modern Android storage models so can't import. Bizarre. Thanks.

@lauren I like Termux. It gives a whole Linux environment with normal openssh so all the key handling etc is just what you'd expect. Plus you get the option of using 'mosh' which can be a little more pleasant on sketchy mobile networks.

@PCOWandre I've played with Termux. Just too much overhead for routine use.

@lauren Pretty sure Termius does this on iOS, maybe there is an Android version?

@klausfiend There is but it wants too many permissions.

@lauren That's a shame, I have come to really like the iOS version. I haven't run into the same concerns about permissions, though, I just deny the usual suspects (location data, access to Bluetooth, etc.)

@klausfiend I don't like apps that want to see what other apps are running, etc. I may look at it again to test -- I have an sftp app that can import keys OK so I know there isn't a system issue, but Google has changed the storage models so much lately that it's a mess.
