ConchshellConchshell for Android
An APK for Android 7.0 and newer, arm64. The same client as on the desktop — a terminal, files, a monitor and a remote desktop — with screens drawn for a phone rather than a window shrunk to fit one.

Installing an APK
Android asks once whether this browser may install applications — allow it, and the file installs like any other. The APK is signed with our key, so an update installs over the top; a build signed with anything else is refused by Android itself.
Check the file before you run it
Every published file has its SHA-256 in the published list. On a phone the simplest check is to download on a computer, verify, and copy across:
What it needs
What you get on a phone
Questions people actually ask
Is it on Google Play?
No. The APK is served from this site. That is also why the app can tell you where to buy a licence — Google Play forbids pointing at outside payment, and a build that never goes there is not bound by it.
Does it update itself?
No. On the desktop the app updates in place; on Android you install the new APK over the old one. Nothing is lost — connections, the vault and the licence stay.
Is there an x86 build?
No. arm64 only, which is every phone sold in the last decade. An x86 build would only serve emulators.
Do I have to type my connections in again?
No. Link the phone to a computer that already has them: the vault copies directly over your network, and the licence comes with it.
Does RDP work on a phone?
Yes, and the picture is fitted to the screen by default. A domain and a resolution can be set if the server needs them.
What does the paid feature cost me if I do not buy it?
Nothing. Everything except syncing connections between machines works the same and for as long as you like.
The same application, elsewhere
One codebase, one feature set. Nothing is held back for a particular operating system.
