Why would you pay for such feature ? Termux is basically a small Linux in your pocket and has anything you'd ever need regarding SSH

JuiceSSH was popular starting 2013-2014 and Termux was released in 2015. ConnectBot technically existed before but its keyboard has always left more to be desired.
It's far quicker and easier to hit a toggle in JuiceSSH to turn on a port forward than to open up termux and type in the commands.

termux via F-droid is far better now than JuiceSSH Pro. Termux:Widget let's you launch an SSH tunnel script with one click. I stopped using JuiceSSH Pro more than a year ago once I realized this.
I can believe that. But there are ways to reduce this overhead to almost nothing (aliasing, a script, a shell with nice autocomplete...)
Keyboard in Juice is/was very good too. Just a bar over your Android keyboard with all the special characters that are normal when using bash. Like tilde or forward slash. Saved a lot of time and made me not switch to Termux. But haven't used it in a long time.
Termux has a similar bar now. Maybe it didn't used to in the past, but always has since I've used it
Because I already had my servers loaded in the app, have been using it for 13 years, and I like it, so I paid to support development. Really backfired.
I ended up setting it up through Termux as you suggested.
