Agent Maxer keeps the status of your AI coding sessions visible across your Apple devices. Connect the Mac relay to supported local clients, then follow your sessions on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac. Know when work is active, waiting for input, complete, idle, or in error without opening every window. STAY AWARE • Follow supported Codex, Claude Code, or Grok Build sessions. • Choose recent or pinned sessions and group work into a Power Queue. • Acknowledge completed sessions from the iPhone app. USAGE AT A GLANCE • See supported Codex usage windows and reset times. • Use weekly budget, pace, runway, heatmap, and ring views. • Add Home Screen widgets in multiple sizes. AMBIENT APPLE SURFACES • Start a Live Activity for Lock Screen and Dynamic Island status. • Check session state on Apple Watch. • Arrange the same information in the customizable Mac and iPad Overview. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Agent Maxer reads bounded status and usage metadata from supported local clients through your Mac relay. Once the relay is configured, formatted completed Codex responses are encrypted on your Mac and shared automatically with your signed-in iPhones for local speech playback. Responses are available for up to 30 days, or until replaced by a newer response in the same session or evicted when storage is full. Listening does not delete a response. Expiry is not a guarantee of physical deletion at that time. Microphone recordings and synthesized audio are not uploaded. Learn more at https://agentmaxer.com/privacy. AGENT MAXER PRO Some usage insights and related surfaces require Agent Maxer Pro, available as an optional auto-renewing monthly subscription.
