SSH - CleanEnergyCleanEnvironment - 02-18-2023
Hello,
I am considering to buy a pine64 phone, will I be able to run ssh from my laptop to connect the pine64 when both connect to my home WiFi?
Thank you.
Kind regards,

Simply put, yes.

Yes, you can. (And the other way round too!)
sshd is installed but disabled by default on the default PinePhone distribution (Manjaro Plasma Mobile) (and I think also on most others), but can be easily enabled, see my instructions in this post. Then you can both SSH into it and transfer files using SFTP.
As for the opposite direction: The PinePhone distros normally also all ship a terminal emulator where, using a virtual keyboard, you can run arbitrary shell commands. That includes the SSH client. That can come handy at times too.
The same also applies to the PinePhone Pro.
