Use it on a phone

The Console opens in a phone’s browser too. It suits checking how sessions are doing, answering a question or sending a short reply. Involved editing is better done on a computer.

How it works

Section titled “How it works”
What you do What happens
Bring out the left pane with ≡ and pick a session The session fills the screen and the left pane closes by itself
Swipe the screen sideways Steps through the running sessions
Press the key row under the terminal Sends keys that are awkward on a soft keyboard
The Console at phone width. ≡ and the top bar at the top, below them the workspace action bar with ⋯, and a session's conversation with a question card filling the screen

Bring out the left pane

Section titled “Bring out the left pane”
  • Press ≡ at the top left to bring out the left pane. Picking an item closes it by itself
  • A swipe to the right that starts at the left edge of the screen brings it out too. With the left pane open, a swipe to the left closes it
  • The browser’s back gesture opens it again

Step through the sessions

Section titled “Step through the sessions”

Swipe the screen to the right to move to the running session one row below in the left pane’s list, and to the left to move one row up.

  • Where you landed shows briefly, as “2/3 session name”. At either end it wraps around
  • shell and SSM sessions are skipped. With a working set chosen, it steps only through that set
  • A swipe to the right that starts at the left edge brings out the left pane instead. To move to the next session, start the swipe away from the edge
  • Over an input box, the browser pane or anything that scrolls sideways, such as a code block, it does not switch

Operate the terminal

Section titled “Operate the terminal”

In a Terminal (CLI) session or a shell, a row of keys sits under the terminal.

Key Sends
Esc Tab Esc, Tab
← ↑ ↓ → Arrow keys
^C Ctrl+C (stops the running command)
⏎ Enter
  • They are sent without bringing up the soft keyboard
  • Swipe vertically on the terminal with one finger to go back through past output. In an app that uses the whole screen, such as vim, it scrolls that app

The bar and notifications

Section titled “The bar and notifications”
  • On a narrow screen, buttons that do not fit on the workspace action bar move into its ⋯ menu: Home, Sessions and Images first, then Split down and Close all
  • Notifications appear just below the top bar and do not cover the input box. Tap outside to dismiss them. A notification with a button, such as Update, closes only with ×
  • “At a glance” on Home starts folded
Section titled “Related”
