Using this with tmux and various VPN tech. Main issue is scrolling. Termius + tmux don't scroll very well. And I've been led to believe tmux is necessary to keep sessions open when I turn off my phone screen

Scrolling is quite jenky with Termius - I thought there's a way to keep sessions going when there are intermittent drops in connection via Termius, but for how I've been building, when I lose connection I just restart claude and reexplain the context of the task.

I had this exact issue. I switched to Blink on iOS which seems inferior to Termius in every way except that scrolling tmux actually works.

  • I’m the Blink developer and really curious. Which way do you think Blink is inferior? I think the ssh/mosh tooling is way more powerful, keyboard config, etc. But would love to improve what I can. Currently working on new UI and better access to hosts, so it is a good time.

    • Sorry to have missed this. First, props that Blink is indeed superior in that it actually works.

      My recollection is that the primary way Termius "feels better" is the pre-terminal UI (configuring hosts, etc).

      But I'm still a daily Blink user, so I don't 100% recall what Termius did to make me think it was nicer, I just remember that scrolling was fucked so I gave up on it.

try setting set -g mouse on in your tmux config. With this I'm able to scroll up by using two fingers in termius.
