Your AI coding agents, within reach. Tactic Remote connects your iPhone and iPad to your own computer so you can continue conversations, follow terminal output, inspect files, and respond when a task needs you. Your computer keeps working. You don't have to stay at your desk. Works with Claude Code, Codex, Amp, and Droid on compatible Mac, Linux, and Windows hosts. CHAT AND LIVE TERMINAL Follow streaming replies, code, and tool results in chat, or open the native terminal to enter commands and watch output. Choose an agent when creating a conversation. Each conversation keeps its own agent and context; start another conversation to use a different agent. PROJECTS, FILES, AND SESSIONS Find work by project, switch sessions, browse source files, and inspect file activity and Git changes. Worktree support helps organize separate tasks in the same repository. REMOTE ACCESS AND TRUSTED DEVICES Connect directly on your local network or use Tactic Relay to reach a paired computer over the internet. Relay connections use application-layer end-to-end encryption, so the relay cannot read session content. You can also use a Cloudflare Tunnel you configure. Sign in to your Tactic account to manage trusted devices and bound hosts, add Passkeys, and revoke device access. Your computer and companion server must stay running for remote access. VOICE, SHORTCUTS, AND ALERTS Dictate with Apple Speech, on-device Whisper, or optional cloud speech. Reuse commands and prompts, and receive notifications when work finishes or needs your attention. USAGE AT A GLANCE Where supported, check usage and plan limits for the agent account signed in on your computer. The companion server reads this data locally; availability depends on the agent and account. MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD Check in and reply from iPhone, or use iPad sidebars, expanded panels, and keyboard shortcuts. The interface supports English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, and Spanish. IPHONE, IPAD, AND THE WEB Alongside the native app, use a browser to access your own development environment, view sessions, browse files, and use the terminal. A new browser must complete secure pairing before its first connection. Your computer and companion server must stay running. FREE AND PRO The free tier includes 2 saved computers, 2 sessions, 5 custom snippets, and 5 minutes of cloud speech per month. Pro unlocks unlimited computers, sessions, and snippets, plus file upload and editing, the full Shell keyboard, custom quick prompts, all themes, and 35 minutes of cloud speech per month. Available through monthly or annual subscriptions, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. YOUR ENVIRONMENT, YOUR CONTROL Install the companion server and a supported coding agent on your computer, then sign in to and configure the agent. Tactic Remote does not provide an AI model or third-party agent account. Your computer continues to manage your projects, terminal processes, and agent credentials. Optional product analytics excludes code, prompts, terminal output, file paths, and project names, and can be disabled in Settings. Audio is uploaded only when you choose cloud speech. Protect the app with Face ID or Touch ID. Privacy Policy: https://tacticremote.com/privacy Terms of Service: https://tacticremote.com/terms
