HAPI is a native companion for your self-hosted HAPI hub: your coding agents run on your machine, while you follow along and interact from your iPhone or iPad. CONTINUE FROM ANYWHERE Read live conversations, send follow-up instructions, and respond to permission requests. Browse your sessions and start new ones on a connected runner. SEE WHAT CHANGED Explore session files, review code and Git diffs, and read formatted Markdown and tool results. Keep notes in a session scratchlist for later. MORE WAYS TO WORK Attach photos and files, or use voice dictation with a transcription provider configured on your hub. Receive push notifications when your attention is needed. YOUR HUB, YOUR WORKFLOW Pair by scanning your hub's QR code or entering its connection details. Connect to multiple hubs and switch between them. Credentials stay in platform-protected storage. iOS push notification content is end-to-end encrypted between your hub and your device. REQUIRES A HAPI HUB This app is a companion, not a standalone hosted AI service. You need a running HAPI hub and a configured coding agent on your computer. Remote access requires a hub address reachable from your device. AI and transcription providers may require separate accounts and may charge for their services. Available agent features depend on your hub and agent configuration. HAPI is open source.
