Questions
Getting started takes about a minute.
How do I enable SSH on my Raspberry Pi?
In Raspberry Pi Imager, open the settings before writing the card and turn on SSH. On a running Pi, use sudo raspi-config → Interface Options → SSH → Yes. Then open PiShell and tap “Find on network”.
Does it work with other Linux computers?
Yes. PiShell works with any computer running an SSH server – Debian, Ubuntu, home servers, NAS boxes and more. Some extras like the temperature reading depend on the hardware.
Is my data safe?
PiShell has no ads, no account and collects no data. Hosts and keys are stored only on your phone, and the app only connects to the computers you add. Read the privacy policy.
Can I run nano or htop?
Yes – PiShell has a full xterm-compatible terminal, so nano, htop, vim, less and top work, with Ctrl and arrow keys on screen and support for Bluetooth keyboards.
What does Pro cost?
Pro is a small one-time purchase in the app (no subscription). The price is shown in Google Play in your local currency.
Which languages are supported?
English, Swedish, German, French and Spanish.
