Comments on TermBot: SSH + hardware keys for Android

★★★★★ Disappointed that it didn't support IsoApplet for SSH keys last I tried, but it shouldn't be hard to add, so I hope it will.

★★★★★ Great App! I use it with fidesmo OpenPGP nfc cards. Used to have my own clone that wasn't great. This is way better. Only issue is that ssh agent forwarding isn't working yet, but it's being worked on according to the GitHub.

★★★★★ This is cool. I can use my YubiKey NEO for SSH auth like I do on a computer. This also seems like a very functional app too.

★★★★★ YubiKey: Attempting 'public key' authentication with hardware security key Authentication method 'public key' with OpenPGP hardware security key failed

★★★★★ It's great to SSH with GPG key on YubiKey. Unfortunately, that key is not forwarded ssh-agent wise, which still makes it unusable for host hopping. Hence, only 4 stars for now.

★★★★★ Was ecstatic to find this. Been a user of OpenKeyChain, but looking for a way to integrate with SSH and my YubiKey 5C on a Samsung Tab A (SM-T510). This just works, plain and simple. Can't be happier.

★★☆☆☆ Recent update broke interoperability with OpenKeychain. They introduced a new crypto library and instruct to import secret keys into it. This seems super fishy. I do not trust the new crypto engine, making this update a breaking change for me.

★★☆☆☆ Refusing to use my key to login after update. Seems like it only allows physical Smart Card keys now? Developers completely dropped support for OpenKeychain. Upon reading the FAQ I see that to be the case, as in order to use a PGP auth key, you must remove the password and convert it to a regular SSH id_rsa key.

★★☆☆☆ No way of importing private keys Basically just Connect Bot, but with u2f support. Not worth it when I can just use termux with openssh 8.2

★★☆☆☆ After the update the app no longer works with my pgp key in openkeychain, please enable this as an option. I can understand the use case with hardware keys or NFC keys but what if I want to use my pgp key present in openkeychain, if I try to load the pgp key directly to term bot it displays unknown format.
