Reviews for Termux
Keep up the good work. I notice some occasional tiny bugs like command history scrambled after breaking out of webpack server, but honestly I see the same type issues in my regular Linux terminal. I wish accessing device memory was a little more straight forward, but I prefer not being asked for all permission upfront... So yeah would I do anything differently... probably but it would only be worse lol great work!!! Thanks so much!!!
Biggest issue is that the text input is completely nonfunctional. I can't see it as I type, and no matter how I change autocorrect settings it kept adding whole words on instead of replacing things, and even when I turned it off I couldn't see what I was typing or reliably get it to enter correctly, unusable! Sad because it works for basic functionality, and I was going to try using it with another app (anlinux) that claimed to allow for getting distros and desktop environs set up without root.
This app is great. However, there is an issue with repositories update that makes me unable to install a package or upgrade the Termux environment. When I tried it at my laptop running Android x86, it worked nevertheless. I suspect it was because of different architecture (x86_64) that Termux runs to in my laptop. I think you have to fix it for Android mobile.
Extremely pleased with Termux. Initially I just poked around in the limited access to the file system, but eventually found the package manager and was pleasently suprised to find it had quite a few software options in the repository, such as nano and elinks. The one change I would make is to have it prompt for filesystem access.
This is the most important app for maintain my multiple servers from my android devices. But this app need just one more feature, that is right and left arrow button beside the up and down button. So that , we can go to specific part of a command and fix typing mistake. Edit: Now I have changed my device and I think a physical button for starting new session is required because my new device use the whole side for swipe gesture.. now I can't open more sessions...
It is good to experience the Linux console, but when in portrait mode on 7" tablets, it doesn't have arrow right and arrow left buttons on the app. The solution is to install another keyboard that provides such functionality. They are used very often by me.
Good emulator to learn and practice CLI, vi and shell. I like it. Some non-fatal comments that probably just need me using this more... 1. I did not find a "settings" and in partucular; turn off haptic feedback. 2. On my Android/Samsung, CLI and vi typing does not show/echo to screen as I type, but shows only after I hit "enter/search." 3. I am still unsure of what the "left/right" arrows button at the bottom of the screen does yet.
Termux is a great for power users and does exactly as described. The features by default are minimal but in the right hands, with the right .pkg installations, can become something both complex and powerful. Being that this is a terminal emulator, it would be nice to have an option to save commands to a "favourites" list for faster command execution when using the app without a hardware keyboard.
Works. Not having root access sometimes makes it hard but it's not the app's fault, so... Thanks a lot. One thing though, you can use up and down arrows to go through command history, but since you don't have the right and left arrow on the bar, it's extremely hard to change the last command without deleting the most of it. Simply add left and right arrows, please.
The app is great for mobile Android. I use it very often. I like its minimalistic design. No graphics, no animations nothing just the terminal. But using it on a very small devices like smartphone, we tend to make a lot of typos in commands. So if you could add the command suggestions like the word suggestions in keyboards it would make our lives easy. It would make the app even more better.
