ReTerminal

ReTerminal is a terminal emulator for Android devices that you can use as an alternative to the classic and obsolete Jackpal Terminal. This tool, developed with Termux's TerminalView engine, will make it easier for you to execute commands, manage system packages, and will provide you with the advantages of having a console at hand on your smartphone.

Use a simple terminal on Android

Upon opening the app, you will be greeted by a clean console where you can begin working right away. One of its strengths is its bottom virtual key bar, which includes essential buttons such as ESC, CTRL, ALT, TAB, HOME, and the directional arrows. These controls will make it much easier for you to write lines of code and navigate from your touch screen. Furthermore, by expanding the side menu, you will be able to open and manage multiple sessions in parallel to keep several processes active at the same time.

Set up custom shortcuts

On the other hand, ReTerminal also offers support for Alpine Linux and will provide you with everything you need to configure custom keyboard shortcuts with the intention of streamlining repetitive actions like pasting text or managing your active sessions.

What I liked most about ReTerminal and what could be improved

• What I liked most: the Material 3-based design makes using a terminal on Android no longer feel so archaic. Also worth highlighting is the virtual navigation bar.

• What could be improved: more advanced users might miss the default repositories found in other more comprehensive alternatives, although for basic and intermediate use, this app is more than enough.

Download ReTerminal's APK for Android to enjoy a fast, modern, and very easy-to-use command console. Manage multiple sessions, take advantage of its configurable shortcuts, and effortlessly manage your device internally.
