Fully supports OpenCode v2 (2.0.22)

Excellent minimal UI OpenCode app. Works with OpenCode v2. Also seems to have at least partial support for OpenCode plugins, though that may depend on how they’re implemented*.

App is actively maintained and developer responds to feedback.

(*I do have an issue using the opencode-models-discovery plugin where OpenLens is able to poll my opencode server’s model list but incorrectly applies a 200k context to every model in the list rather than polling the endpoint for its per-model context settings. Not sure this is a problem on the OpenLens side or in the plugin.)

Great app, weird bug

The app is great overall but a font size setting would be great, because text in the chat is pretty small on an iPhone 17.
A weird bug: the chat UI randomly switches to looking like a Gameboy’s UI, with seemingly no way to prevent it.

Response from developer

That was suppose to be the easter egg which I thought I had removed, silly me. Shake your iPhone to come back to the standard layout, I will permanently remove it in the next release. Meanwhile I’m happy that you enjoy the app, I will also do sth about font size :)

Not compatible with v2 server

App needs to be updated to handle v2 url schema for /api health check.

Response from developer

Yeah OpenCode was quick with the release but I delivered- my app now supports API v2. It would mean a lot to me if you would update your rating. App is open sourced and spreading a good word about it helps a lot :)

Great app

First of all, this is a great app!

One additional feature I would like is the ability to connect multiple sessions and select which one to attach.

Best OC iOS client I have found

OpenLens has been the most straightforward of the several OpenCode clients I have tried. I like that it doesn’t waste screen real estate. The font selection and layout allow you to get a good amount of the chat log visible on a single screen.

Feels native, very nice iPhone wrapper

It’s really well made, easier switching between sessions within different workspaces is the only thing I can think of that I am missing.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review! Could you clarify what you mean by “easier”? Is the Sessions main tab view not working properly for you? As my app is open sourced you can go to OpenLens github page and file an issue for that, that would be helpful.

Awesome app

App is stable and fully functional so it makes it a great remote client for OpenCode. Not only works great but is polished. It’s nice that you can choose workspace while creating new session.
I also found an easter egg- shake while on chat view, so much fun!

My experience

A basic OpenCode client, but actively improving and comes with a built-in git UI! The developer was responsive and fixed an issue I was experiencing, which I appreciate! Still feels early days in terms of the OpenCode functionality, with a lot to be completed - selecting a workspace for new chats, reliability of stopping ongoing messages… But I can tell the developer is optimising for the whole end-to-end experience, not just functional coverage. :)

Response from developer

Thank you for the review and giving a chance to my app. I tracked down what went wrong in your case and finally found the bug. I fixed it in the 1.5 version. Please check that out as I’m trying to make this app a valuable companion.

My Experience

Tried the app. Connected to my authenticated local OpenCode server. Navigating to any tab past the first would reset back to the first every few seconds. Can’t speak to the functionality, as such a basic failure put me off, and I’m falling back to the web-app for now.
