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?
Sync for hosts and SSH keys seems like a really weird feature to put into a terminal emulator (except maybe on Android with its very restrictive security model) considering that those have literally nothing to do with the job a terminal emulator does.
Terminus IMO is utter crap, their sales team are useless and didn’t want to engage with me in a useful non-automated way. Their ‘Linux’ support is actually just a Ubuntu based deb installer which you need to manipulate to be useful on other distros. I am also very cautious of their cloud sync which holds your passwords and keys especially since it doesnt use your systems defaults on Linux.
However it is currently the best ssh client I can install on android via Google play on a device I can’t sideload Juice onto, I just don’t let it remember passwords and keys.

Why do you need to sideload JuiceSSH, rather than install from the play store?
Because if your android forces the newer android security contexts for storage, it won’t install.
