It’s a Vibe Coded Start

The app pushes frames like VNC and doesn’t format the text. You get exact terminal output and if you have formatting it looks broken the way it interlaces in between lines. I can just use Jump Desktop or TeamViewer to do this. What is needed is text and the ability to use your phone as a reader like you can a cmux or any terminal by increasing font size and fitting to the display area.

The UI is really bad. Needs a Fable UI overhaul for native liquid UI. I’d pay $20 for something good. Please put effort in to this and people will buy. The alternative now is in a week I’ll vibe this feature into the open source iOS repo of cmux, but that’s a lot of work and I’d rather pay someone who cares to maintain it.

anyway, things move fast in this space, good luck

Very useful app

The interface is a bit rough around the edges, but works great for what’s built for. And it’s free. Thank you!

flawless cmux remote access

works great! thank you for making this.

Clever app, I like it. Please add:

Would be great to be able to highlight and copy terminal text- right now you have to screenshot. Also- something is weird with double dashes, making it hard to prompt from the app. It’s a clever little app, these features would make a big difference!

Does not work with current version of cmux relay.
