VibeGo brings your remote VS Code workspace to iPhone/iPad, with a layout designed for terminals, AI agents, and real coding on a smaller screen. • Full VS Code when you need full fidelity Open your real remote VS Code workspace on iOS—editor, terminal, file explorer—so you can do “actual dev,” not a watered-down viewer. • Native iOS views for speed on mobile Jump into native screens for the tasks that feel best on iPhone/iPad: quickly browsing files, reviewing output, and taking common actions with less scrolling and fewer taps. Then drop back into VS Code instantly when you need more functionality. • Designed for AI agents in your terminal Run AI copilots or agents in your remote VS Code CLI and drive them comfortably from your iPhone/iPad. The custom command bar gives you quick access to Ctrl‑C, Tab, Enter, arrow keys, right‑click and more, so you can issue commands and fix prompts without hunting for key combos. • Hide the keyboard to reclaim screen space Dock and hide the keyboard when you don’t need it so you can see more of your code, terminals and AI output. Bring it back with a tap when you’re ready to type. • Voice dictation for code and commands Use the dedicated dictation button to speak commands, prompts or small code edits instead of typing everything by hand. Dictation works especially well when you’re combining an AI agent with the command bar. • Localhost and port‑forwarding support VibeGo allows you to forward localhost ports and open them from your phone. Test web apps, APIs and dashboards from anywhere, even when you’re off your home Wi‑Fi. • Built for real projects, not just quick fixes VibeGo is a companion for your desktop VS Code + remote environment. Pair your tunnel once, then reconnect in seconds from your iOS device whenever you need to check on a build, restart a service or collaborate with an AI agent in your terminal. Subscription Details VibeGo Premium (auto-renewable): includes 1 persistent tunnel that does not auto-expire while your VS Code desktop is running. Length: 1 month. Price: $14.99/month (U.S.); prices vary by region and are shown before purchase. Billing: charged to your Apple ID; renews automatically until canceled in your Apple ID subscription settings.
