Install

  1. Download the DMG, open it and drag AetherTerm into Applications.

Requires Apple silicon (M1 or later) and macOS 14 or later.

Server metrics aren't showing

Metrics are read from Linux /proc over SSH and work on common Linux servers; other systems may not show every metric.

Report an issue

Please include your macOS version, AetherTerm version and steps to reproduce — never passwords or private keys.

Current workflow shortcuts

Use ⌘⌥K for processes, ⌘⌥T for tunnels, ⌘P for the command palette and ⌘⇧B for quick commands. Linux process and systemd service information depends on the remote system and permissions.

Manage the SSH key vault and log folder in Settings. Session logs record terminal content; review outputs for passwords, tokens and private paths before sharing.
