Does anybody know a way of either converting (on android) a putty key to something I can use in ConnectBot, or a good android SSH app that can use Putty keys natively?

I am away from home without my laptop, which I would usually use. I only have my android phone with me.

A few months ago I tried creating RSA key pairs to use with Putty on my laptop and ConnectBot but for some reason I just could not crack it so gave up. I also used puttygen to create an RSA key but it would not work on ConnectBot

You are amazing, thank you so much! It all worked apart from the last one, which said it needs an output file specified so added -o after a quick search. I really appreciate the quick response to, I got in very quickly but only just managed to respond here.

Glad to hear it worked! I edited the comment in case anybody stumbles across it with the same issue
