🧰 Troubleshooting Basics


If something doesn’t work as expected, please go through this quick checklist before posting support questions.

This saves time for everyone.

✅ Basic Checks


Before reporting an issue:

🌐 Make sure your host is reachable
🔌 Verify the SSH port (usually 22)
💻 Try connecting from desktop SSH first

If desktop SSH fails, VaultTerm will fail too.

📸 Capture the Error


If you see an error:

📷 Take a screenshot
📝 Note the exact message

Avoid paraphrasing — exact output matters.

📤 When Posting in Support


Please include:

📱 Device model
🤖 Android version
🌍 Host type (VPS / local server / home lab)
📸 Screenshot of the error

This helps reproduce issues quickly.

🧭 General Advice


VaultTerm connects directly to your server.

Common problems are usually:
  • wrong hostname
  • wrong port
  • firewall blocking SSH
  • server not running

Start there.

🛠️ Beta Feedback


VaultTerm is actively evolving.

If you find a bug:

✅ describe steps to reproduce
✅ attach screenshots
✅ keep reports technical and focused

Clear reports = faster fixes.
