This. It’s just powerful too. My biggest use case was to ssh into my servers as I needed. Not needed often times, but in a bind when I needed to do something, and I’m not by a proper computer it’s become so handy. I’ve since switched to Termius however for this use case though, but the concept is the same.
But also, having access to a Linux terminal opens the door to so much! Need a quicker way to transfer multiple files onto a flash drive? Just load up terminal and run an rsync or cp operation. Need to make a quick code change to a git repo? VIM (with mouse mode for those fake vim users like myself) works very nicely. You can actually run a full blown VSCode server via the terminal and load it up on localhost, and it works just as you’d expect it to work on a normal Linux machine. And that’s the best part of it, the code execution.
The link preview is totally broken for me. So I wanted to shout WHAT DID YOU SWITCH TO, DENVERCODER9??? But in the reply UI I see now the link text, and it’s Termius.
To add to your list, I used to ssh into my Linux box and use screen to play a bit of dwarf fortress remotely. It was great for setting up work orders and other things.

I switched from termux to ConnectBot, fwiw.
Oh oops, added a bad character in front of the link, fixed
