Frequently asked questions
How do I send a push notification to my iPhone from a script?
Send a single HTTP POST to the Pling API with your token, a title, and a message. It works from curl, JavaScript, Python, Swift, Go, GitHub Actions, and any CI pipeline, and the alert arrives on your iPhone within seconds. See the API documentation for ready-to-copy examples.
Is Pling an SSH client for iPhone?
Yes. Pling includes a full SSH and Mosh terminal for iPhone and iPad, with saved hosts, SSH keys, terminal themes, and local port forwarding. Mosh keeps your session alive across network changes and sleep.
Does Pling support Mosh?
Yes. Pling speaks both SSH and Mosh. Mosh roams across Wi-Fi and cellular and survives your phone sleeping, so the connection stays responsive even on a flaky network.
Can I forward a port over SSH from my phone?
Yes. Pling can open local port forwards over SSH, so you can reach a database, a dashboard, or any internal service running on your server straight from your iPhone.
What is the Pling host agent?
The host agent is a small cross-platform binary you install on a server. It reports live CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics to the app and runs scheduled commands. It installs on macOS, Linux, and Windows in about a minute.
Where are my SSH keys and credentials stored?
Your SSH keys, hosts, and credentials stay on your device and never leave your phone. See the privacy policy for exactly what is collected and what is not.
Can I share a live terminal session?
Yes. You can share any live SSH or Mosh session as a link. Guests watch your terminal in their browser in real time, read-only by default, with an optional password and automatic expiry. You can promote a guest to type when you need a hand.
Which platforms does the Pling agent run on?
The host agent runs on macOS as a signed, notarized menu-bar app, on Linux via a curl one-liner or systemd unit, and on Windows via a PowerShell installer that runs as a service. The iPhone app is available on the App Store for iOS 17 and later.
