## What is Deskless?

Native by design. Updated for iOS 27.

Deskless is a code editor, Git client, and AI coding agent built for iPhone and iPad. Open real projects, make changes, manage repositories, and delegate larger tasks—without reaching for a laptop.

AI THAT WORKS YOUR WAY
• Give Agent Mode a goal and let it explore your project, plan the work, and prepare multi-file changes—requires Deskless Pro and your own provider API key
• Review Agent Mode’s proposed patches before applying them
• Follow agent progress through Live Activities and Dynamic Island
• Use free on-device Apple Intelligence for quick coding help on supported devices—no API key required
• Explain code, improve implementations, add comments, and find bugs
• With Pro, connect your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or xAI API key for cloud AI
• Discover supported models available to your account and keep your saved model choices—provider access and usage charges apply

A SERIOUS MOBILE EDITOR
• Fast syntax highlighting for dozens of languages
• Multiple open files with reorderable tabs
• Find and replace, go to line, snippets, and Markdown preview
• Quick Look for images, PDFs, and other files
• Run JavaScript on your device and view its output
• Unsaved-work recovery and optional autosave

A COMPLETE GIT WORKFLOW
• Clone repositories over HTTPS or SSH
• Use encrypted RSA or Ed25519 SSH keys and verify host fingerprints before connecting
• Stage, commit, amend, push, pull, and sync
• Create and switch branches
• Review diffs and manage stashes
• Resolve merge conflicts from your device
• Keep credentials protected in the system Keychain

WORKS WITH THE FILES APP
Your Deskless workspace appears in Files, making it easy to import, export, organize, and share projects. Cloned repositories live alongside your other documents.

DESIGNED FOR iPHONE AND iPAD
• A native interface with Liquid Glass design, keyboard shortcuts, haptics, and accessibility support
• On iOS 27, the editor toolbar minimizes as you scroll, giving your code more room
• Keep your active file, selection, and undo history as your workspace changes size
• Start a new scratchpad from Control Center
• Updated for iOS 27, with continued iOS 26 support

START FREE. GO PRO WHEN YOU’RE READY.
The editor and supported on-device AI tools are free. Deskless Pro unlocks the complete Git workflow, Agent Mode, cloud AI providers, multiple tabs, find and replace, autosave, custom themes, and more.

Deskless Pro is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period and can be managed in your App Store account settings.
