Mobile IDE vs Octopus

Mobile IDE – build working apps from a prompt, a sketch or your voice Describe an idea in plain words and Mobile IDE builds a real multi-file web app (HTML, CSS and JavaScript) that runs instantly in a live preview right on your iPhone. No laptop, no setup, no account. LIVE PREVIEW Every project runs on your device in a built-in preview and keeps working offline once it is built. Tap through your app, test it and open it full screen. REAL PROJECTS, NOT SNIPPETS Each project has its own files and a file tree. Read the code with syntax highlighting, copy it, or edit any file by hand in the Code tab. ITERATE IN PLAIN WORDS Ask for a change like "Make the buttons blue and add dark mode". The AI agent updates only the files that need it and shows exactly what changed, with added and removed lines for every file. UNDO AND VERSION HISTORY Every change is saved as a new version. Undo in one tap, compare versions line by line and restore any earlier one. Nothing is ever lost. SKETCH TO APP Take a photo of a hand-drawn sketch or pick a screenshot of any screen, and Mobile IDE turns it into a working interface. VOICE PROMPTS Say what the app should do and watch the live transcript turn into a new app or a change request. EXPORT AND SHARE Save your project as a ZIP to the Files app or send it to your Mac with AirDrop, then keep working in your favorite editor. START FROM A TEMPLATE Habit tracker, landing page, portfolio site, quiz game, snake game, or anything else you can describe. PERFECT FOR • Indie makers and founders prototyping an idea • Designers turning sketches into clickable mockups • Students learning HTML, CSS and JavaScript • Developers who want to build on the go • Anyone curious about vibe coding Light and Dark appearance, haptics and a clean, focused workspace.

Octopus brings Codex to iPhone and iPad. Connect to your Mac, development server, or remote workspace and keep real coding threads moving from anywhere. It is not another closed cloud IDE. Octopus is a mobile control surface for the environment you already use: connect through Codex app-server or SSH, browse workspaces, projects, and recent sessions, return to active threads, and follow Thinking, Waiting, and Ready states in real time. When an agent needs a decision, resolve approvals with Allow, Allow for Session, or Deny. Use text, voice, images, and files to add context without returning to your desk. Review automation runs, start a task again, inspect history, and jump back from notifications or Live Activities when work changes state. Built for developers who want to: • Monitor AI coding agents from iPhone • Resume Codex threads away from the desk • Approve commands, permissions, and structured questions remotely • Keep Mac, server, workspace, and thread context organized • Dictate quick prompts, bug notes, and test results by voice Key features: • Codex app-server and SSH connections • Server, project, thread, and recent session management • Runtime status, notifications, and Live Activity deep links • Approval cards for command and permission decisions • Markdown messages, tool results, image input, and file context • Automation list, run-now actions, and run history • SSH host fingerprint confirmation and credentials stored in device Keychain • Octopus turns your phone into a second development screen, so you can stay close to the code even when you step away from the keyboard.
