Is Termius the only cross platform emulator that includes Android as one of the platforms? It is quite good, in my limited experience, but too expensive for a hobbiest. I like that I can use my Linux desktop, MacOS laptop, and Android tablet/phone and the UX is the same across them all. The sync (trial for free, then charge) is great. But I’d be fine if it was something where I could DIY a sync method with something like Syncthing.

I’m aware of the likes of Alacritty, but no mobile app. And of course Termux is great for mobile, but no desktop versions.

It all boils down to wanting some sort of sync function either DIY or otherwise that includes hosts and SSH keys and while not as important, I do like the consistent UX between platforms. Is there something else to consider?

    I thought KDE was working on some cross platform programs, but I can’t recall the name of the project or the tools, they had a file manager, and a few other things. I thought it included a basic terminal emulator.

    I may be thinking of the following project.

    https://mauikit.org/apps/

    it shows screen shots for ‘station’ on mobile, but I can’t find a .APK for it.

      That’s because there isn’t an APK, it’s designed to work with Plasma Mobile, which uses AppImages

        but they have an APK for the file manager ‘index’. so that’s what’s confused me.

          Ah yeah. Looking back, I see that almost all of them are listed as compatible with android. Station and Clip appear to be the only ones that aren’t.
