Old phone got set on fire, so I can't get the apk, and I can't seem to find the menu bar where I would see new sessions or enable my keyboard

There's only a '/' button where the menu bar was (three vertical bars) on my last device

  1. the hamburger button by default being there is only in the beta version
#

that is this version so you could just update to this one

#

if you installed termux from f-droid click the first apk but if you installed it from github click the second apk

#

if you don't know then try both and whichever one doesn't have an error when you try to install it is the right one

#

the other option is

#

you don't technically have to install the beta version to get the hamburger button

#

it's also in the old version you have still

#

but it's disabled by default

#

to enable it you can do this

#
  1. edit ~/.termux/termux.properties with a text editor
#
  1. put this in and save the file
# 
extra-keys = [['ESC','DRAWER','-','HOME','UP','END','PGUP'], \
              ['TAB','CTRL','ALT','LEFT','DOWN','RIGHT','PGDN']]
#
  1. use the command termux-reload-settings
#

then you will have hamburger button in version 0.118.3
