My tmux status bar looked fine on Linux, but connecting to the same session from Termius on my iPhone left repeated copies of the bar at the bottom of the screen. Moving it to the top was a useful workaround. I wanted to keep it at the bottom and keep the desktop’s colors and useful widgets.

The fix was a compact renderer for clients below 100 columns, followed by a targeted replacement for an icon the phone could not render. This extends my one-job status renderer: the phone still uses one status job, and a desktop attached to the same session keeps its full layout. The app is Termius, although I initially called it Terminus.
