Torminal
Changelog

Every release, in the open

What changed in each version of Torminal — new features, fixes and improvements.

v0.5.1 Latest

Private-key fix

  • Fixed SSH and SFTP connections that use a private key — keys without a passphrase were wrongly rejected as “already decrypted” and now connect correctly. Passphrase-protected keys still ask for and use the passphrase.
v0.5.0

Reorder, clearer errors & a tidier Settings

  • Reorder hosts and categories by dragging — press and hold a host or a category header, then drop it where you want. Works in both the sidebar and the Hosts page.
  • Move a host into another category by dropping it onto that category's header, or onto “Ungrouped” to clear its group.
  • Clearer connection errors: unencrypted keys, wrong passphrases, and refused, timed-out or unreachable hosts now explain exactly what to fix instead of a cryptic message.
  • Settings adapts to small windows — the tabs moved to a vertical rail that collapses to icons, so every tab stays reachable.
  • Create your vault with a one-click strong master password — with a strength meter and copied ready to save.
  • The password generator now lives only on the master password; SSH and RDP password fields are back to a clean, simple field.
  • Interface text is no longer selectable, so clicking and dragging never highlights labels by accident.
  • On the website: the download page now shows how many times Torminal has been downloaded, and this changelog got a cleaner, calmer design.
v0.4.2

Custom update prompt

  • The “update available” prompt is now a custom in-app modal that matches Torminal's design, instead of the OS dialog — still optional (Update now or Later).
v0.4.1

Settings tabs hotfix

  • Settings: the tab bar now scrolls with the mouse wheel, so every tab — including About — is reachable on narrow windows.
v0.4.0

Speaks your language

  • Torminal now speaks English, Polski, Deutsch and Русский — switch language (with flags) on the unlock screen or in Settings.
  • Full-screen terminal apps like htop, nano and vim now size correctly and fill the whole window.
  • A quiet update pop-up when a new version is out — update now or later, never forced.
  • Make it yours: custom themes, any Google Font (searchable, loaded on demand) plus terminal font size, cursor, scrollback and copy-on-select options.
  • Command palette (⌘/Ctrl+K) to jump to any server or action — with fully editable keyboard shortcuts.
  • Terminal clipboard: highlight-to-copy, and optional right-click to paste.
  • Frequent-command suggestions now live in the sidebar instead of over the terminal.
  • Clearer SFTP — a labelled action in the host menu and on host cards; the HOSTS header jumps back to your dashboard.
  • Tor now runs Native by default, so onion routing works out of the box with no external proxy.
  • Settings reorganised into tidier tabs (Appearance, Terminal, Shortcuts, Network, Security…).
v0.3.0

Passwords, suggestions & this page

  • Built-in password generator on every password field — strength meter, length and character-class options, one-click copy, and export to a file.
  • Frequent-command suggestions in the terminal: commands you run often come back as an inline hint you accept with Tab (Termius-style).
  • This changelog — see exactly what changed in each version, right inside the app.
  • Command suggestions stay on your machine and can be cleared here at any time.
v0.2.0

Themes, fonts & Termius import

  • 33 built-in themes with a searchable picker.
  • 28 bundled monospace fonts with a combobox, plus an app-wide font setting.
  • Monaco-powered file editor with more languages and TOML support.
  • SFTP: right-click context menus, upload a whole folder, and create new files.
  • In-app dialogs (fixing the no-op native prompt) and toast notifications.
  • Import from Termius on Linux and Windows, not just macOS.
v0.1.0

First release

  • Encrypted cipher-cascade vault (XChaCha20-Poly1305 inside AES-256-GCM, Argon2id).
  • SSH, SFTP and RDP in one client.
  • Per-server or global Tor routing, with DNS resolved inside the circuit.
  • Hardware security key (FIDO2) unlock alongside your master password.
