Read full descriptionHide full description
Yado gives you a full cloud development environment on your phone: a real terminal and a chat interface driven by your own AI coding agent. You can work from your phone, without a laptop. WHAT IS YADO? Sign in with GitHub and a cloud development container starts for you, with the tools already installed. Chat with your agent to build, or drop into a real terminal when you want direct control. You can switch between chat and terminal, and they share the same session and context. FEATURES - No laptop required. Your environment runs in the cloud, not on a computer that has to stay awake. - No setup. The container comes ready, with nothing to install or configure. - Bring your own agent. Connect the AI subscription you already pay for. Your AI provider bills you for usage, not Yado. - Chat or terminal. Start in chat, take over in the terminal, and keep the same context. - Live preview. Run your app and open it on your phone. - Push notifications. Start a task, lock your phone, and get notified when it finishes or needs you. DEVELOPER TOOLS Real git, a real shell, and standard developer tools. Clone repositories, run builds, make commits, and open pull requests from your phone. SUBSCRIPTION Yado is a subscription. One plan, everything included. Yado is $19.00 per month or $113.99 per year, with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. Yado requires your own subscription with a supported AI provider.

Mobile IDE for Claude Code lets you control Claude Code on your Mac from your iPhone. Send prompts, watch the agent work, and ship code while you're away from the desk. WHY THIS APP Claude Code is a powerful agentic coding tool โ but until now, you had to be at your computer to use it. Mobile IDE lifts that constraint. Connect your Mac, send a prompt from your phone, and Claude writes, edits, and runs code in your project โ wherever you are. WHAT YOU GET - Real-time control. Send prompts to your Mac's Claude Code session and see the agent's response on your iPhone. - Every Claude model. Pick Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku per task with one tap. Switch on the fly when you need speed or depth. - Prompt Book. A curated library of prompts for code review, refactoring, architecture decisions, design patterns, and more. - Agentic Coding. Not just chat โ Claude reads your files, writes new ones, runs commands, and iterates until the task is done. - No API keys. No CLI configuration on the phone. Pair your Mac once, then it just works. - Voice input. Dictate your prompts when typing on a small screen isn't ideal. - Unlimited prompts on subscription. No per-message fees, no token meters. GETTING STARTED 1. Open the app on your iPhone. 2. Run the setup helper on your Mac (link inside the app). 3. Pair your devices in seconds. PRIVACY Your code and prompts go between your iPhone and your Mac. We don't store or read the contents of your sessions on our servers. SUBSCRIPTION Try free messages first. When you're ready for unlimited use, upgrade to monthly or yearly โ cancel anytime in Settings โ Apple ID โ Subscriptions. DISCLAIMER Mobile IDE for Claude Code is an independent, third-party client.
