Astropad is out today with Workbench 1.4, the latest update to its remote desktop app for Mac. The release adds a built-in terminal, native iPhone Duo support, and a new way to transfer files between Macs.

Workbench first launched in April with a focus on accessing your Mac from an iPhone or iPad, including checking on AI agents while away from your desk. Version 1.3 arrived in August with faster streaming, a privacy curtain, picture-in-picture support, and tools for keeping unattended Macs accessible.

The big addition in Workbench 1.4 is the ability to switch between the remote desktop and terminal without reconnecting. A toolbar control lets users move between Screen and Terminal views. On Mac, the terminal opens in a separate window.

That means you can check logs, edit a script, or restart a process without opening a separate SSH app.…
