## What is MausBot?

Hand real work to AI agents that run on your own computer, and carry them in your pocket. MausBot is the iPhone app for OpenMausBot, the open-source agent runtime you install on your own Mac, Windows or Linux machine.

Your bots work on your hardware, with your keys, on your files. Nothing is uploaded to us.

WORK YOU CAN HAND OFF
· Inbox triage: read the morning's mail, flag what matters, draft replies, send nothing without your yes
· Pull request review: read a diff, leave comments, open the follow-up issue
· Bug reproduction: drive a browser until the bug happens, then write it up with the steps
· Standup digest: gather what moved yesterday and post the summary to Slack
· Issue grooming: tidy a Linear backlog, label it, close what already shipped
· Research watch: check a list of sites overnight and report what changed
· Portal errands: log into the dull vendor site, download the invoices, park them for review
· Codebase chores: run the migration, fix the lint, open the branch

MESSAGE A BOT LIKE A TEAMMATE
Send work from your phone the way you would text a colleague. Pick up the same thread on your computer. Each bot keeps its own model, its own computer and its own instructions, and comes back to you only when it needs a decision.

A BOT ASKS BEFORE IT ACTS
Shell commands, file edits and open questions arrive as cards you answer with one tap, from the lock screen if you like. Nothing risky happens while you are away without your approval. The gate is the point.

TALK TO IT OUT LOUD
Start a Live call and brief a bot by voice while you walk, with the chat open beside you.

MANY BOTS, IN PARALLEL
Run a bot per job. One owns a project, one watches the inbox, one keeps the build green. Put several in a channel and they pass work between themselves. A cross-bot inbox shows everything waiting on you in one place.

IT KEEPS GOING WITHOUT YOU
Routines run work on a schedule, from every few minutes to selected weekdays. Webhooks let another system start a job. Your computer does the work whether or not your phone is awake.

CONNECTED APPS
OAuth once and every bot can use Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Linear and hundreds more as tools.

BRING YOUR OWN BRAIN
Bots run on the Claude, Codex and Grok CLIs already installed on your machine. Switch a bot's model mid-conversation.

PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE
MausBot talks straight to the companion service on your own computer. Transcripts and keys stay in local storage on that machine. Pair with a short-lived code from Remote access, and revoke the phone whenever you want.

AT HOME OR AWAY
On a trusted network the phone finds your computer by itself. For remote access, install Tailscale on both and connect by MagicDNS name.

Requires OpenMausBot on a Mac, Windows or Linux computer. Free and open source. Tailscale is optional and is not affiliated with OpenMausBot.

### 5/5 — Awesome compliment to OpenMausBot

*2026-10-08*

This app is a great companion to the OpenMausBot software.  It allows me to interact with OpenMausBot when I’m away and keep things running or monitor activity. I highly recommend this along with OpenMausBot for an open source free alternative to other AI agentic bot.  Just bring your own AI(s) and you’re set.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.0 — 2026-10-12

• Your chats are now readable when your computer can't be reached. MausBot shows the last synced conversations instead of an error.
• A microphone in the composer that transcribes on the device, using Whisper Large v3 Turbo. Long-press it to pick the language.
• Routine runs show "Needs attention" when a run is blocked, in the calendar as well as the history.
• Fixes to the roster's signed-out line and to how routine results are read.

### 1.3.2 — 2026-10-07

• The app no longer freezes while connecting to a busy computer.
• A much faster chat: replies stream smoothly, long transcripts stay quick, and images load once instead of on every redraw.
• Cleaner question cards. Options stack properly, and you can answer in your own words.
• Simplified and Traditional Chinese are complete.
• Live calls say where the voice is running and explain a refusal instead of failing quietly.
• Where a bot is working now reads as one line with one clear next step.
• Messages that used to lead to dead ends now tell you what to do.

### 1.3.1 — 2026-10-05

• Fixed: the app could freeze for up to a minute the first time you opened a chat after launching it. Chats open straight away again.
• Smoother while bots are busy: updates from your computer are grouped, so the app stays responsive with many bots working.
• Activity starts hidden, so a chat reads like a normal conversation. While a bot works, its progress shows as one line above the message box.
• Mention a bot with @ in the message box and pick it from the list.
• Videos, audio and documents a bot sends now appear as cards you can open and play.
• A routine calendar on Home shows what ran and what's coming.
• Stop a working bot from the message box.
• Jump to latest while reading older messages.
• Clearer connection messages, and the app moves to another way of reaching your computer when one stops working.
• Pairing fixes: a pasted pairing link works, and a broken link keeps you on the pairing screen.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-10-03

• Live calls. Talk to a bot out loud from your iPhone, with the chat open beside you.
• Take control of a bot's Local VM from the phone, with a tighter, safer remote screen.
• Voice previews reuse the audio player, so playback no longer steps on itself.
• A call's clock stays in view, and hanging up ends the call on the computer it belongs to.
• Fixes for chats with duplicate rows, and for calls that started late or on the wrong computer.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-10-02

• MausBot now runs on iPhones with iOS 16, so older devices can install it.
• New home-screen and lock-screen widgets: answer what a bot needs with one tap, and see an updates digest at a glance.
• A compact home list — one line per bot, with its threads tucked behind a count.
• Voice notes play as audio bubbles in the chat.
• Bot messages render tables and task lists properly.
• Open a chat straight from a link, and swipe back out of a conversation again.
• Routine runs show their results, with a "What I did" digest.
• Quiet agents now say what they are doing instead of looking stuck.
• Many fixes to tool chips, thinking steps and the Dynamic Island.
