Something has broken on your server and your laptop is at home. Open WriteAccess, connect, fix it, and get on with your day. WriteAccess puts a real SSH terminal, a file editor that saves straight back to your server, and live server stats on your iPhone and iPad. It is free: no account, no subscription, no ads. FIX IT IN THE TERMINAL • Real SSH shells, several at once over one connection. • A row of keys above the keyboard for Esc, Ctrl, Tab and the arrows. Choose the keys you want, in the order you want. • Tap the command line to put the cursor exactly where you need it. • Press and hold to copy output. Paste in from anywhere. • Drag to scroll back through output. Pinch to zoom. • It remembers the commands you use and suggests them as you type. EDIT FILES WHERE THEY LIVE • Open a config over SFTP, change it, save. It goes straight back to the server, with nothing to sync. • "Saved"…
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 10 screenshots above are WriteAccess: SSH Client & SFTP's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: WriteAccess: SSH Client & SFTP runs a dark set with one background colour (#4C1C3C) carried across every screenshot — the listing reads as a single poster when the shots sit side by side in search results. The accent colour we picked up, #AC4C4C, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
