Blink has been my main work tool for some 3 years now (I'm a prof web developer). The UI is amazing, they truly nailed it, Mosh is of course what makes it so workable (sorry plain SSH, you're out, reconnect is a must) and they do consistently reply to my bug reports on GH issues. Way to go guys!
Blink is Exceptional!

I have used many ssh and terminal emulators for my iPhone and iPad. Without a doubt, Blink is simply the best! There is not a close second. I run Ubuntu on a server at home. I have provided firewall access for ssh and mosh. (I had never used mosh previously, but it is exceptional and easy to install on Ubuntu). My primary client is my iPad Pro with a floating keyboard (and occasionally my iPhone). With it and Blink it’s like running Ubuntu on my iPad. The keyboard is easily configurable so that the Cmd and Meta keys work flawlessly in Emacs. This works so well that even when I am at home and have access to my Ubuntu Box, I prefer using Blink and my iPad instead. And, yes, I also use Blink to access my MacBook. Another great feature is scp. A onetime set up of ssh-keys allows me to transfer files from my sever to my iPad or the reverse. Finally, the Blink client has a surprisingly robust subset of Unix terminal command including mv, cp, grep, host, ping, telnet, etc These are really great to have locally on an iOS/iPadOS! My only slight, slight complaint is that the up/down/left/right key is very small when using the iPhone, without a regular keyboard. An additionally useful command would be nmap (or something similar). There are apps that do this, but it would be great to access my network with tools I really know. (This is aspirational request, but an apt-get method to download more local commands or tools would be great!) Another feature I would really like, but I believe is an Apple constraint, would be robust ssh-tunnels. I really can’t recommend Blink enough. To be clear, I don’t often write reviews. This may only be the second time I’ve written a review and I’ve used Apple products since the release of the original Macintosh in 1984 . . .
really excellent and innovative

Continued investment in developing this app has made it my tool of choice. Particularly I’m a fan of the latest keyboard — having a command key modifier on the touch keyboard is a simple, unique but incredibly effective feature. An excellent professional tool. I’ll add that my 2nd favorite feature is the ability to send arbitrary hex codes with keyboard hot keys. The flexibility here is amazing.
Best out there

Out of all the ssh terminal programs i’ve tried on the ipad pro, this is the best. Its the only one that allows me to send all the key combos I have for the tmux sessions in my remote machine. It allows me to scroll using the touchscreen. Useful features keeps getting added.
Absolutely love it!

App is getting better and better, one of many best parts is that there is no subscription!!! I hope it stays that way, in-app-purchase is fine ;)
Blink is excellent but there's a bug in the version that runs on macos

I can't seem to get copy paste to work with the mouse. As soon as I go to select text it's popping up a menu as if I was holding down the control key while dragging the mouse.
