LimitWatch vs DevFob

LimitWatch is the mobile companion for developers who use AI coding tools. It bridges your Mac-based AI workflows — Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot, and more — to your iPhone, Apple Watch, and Dynamic Island in real time. KEY FEATURES • Live Activity & Dynamic Island — See your AI session status at a glance: active tool, token usage, approval requests, and session progress. • Push Notifications — Get notified when sessions complete, tools need approval, errors occur, or quotas run low. Never miss an important event. • Multi-Source Monitoring — Track multiple AI tools simultaneously. See which sessions are active, waiting, or completed across all your coding agents. • Approval Flow — Approve or deny tool execution requests directly from your iPhone or Apple Watch. No need to switch back to your Mac. • Quota & Usage Tracking — Monitor your API usage, spending, and remaining quotas across providers like Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. • Widget & Watch Support — Home Screen widgets and Apple Watch complications keep your AI usage visible without opening the app. • Session Archive — Browse past sessions, review transcripts, and export session data for analysis. • Privacy First — Your canonical AI usage and session data stays on your devices and syncs through Apple iCloud/CloudKit under your own Apple Account. Purpose-separated minimal backends handle only subscription validation and push delivery (device tokens, preferred push locale, pseudonymous account/pairing identifiers, and subscription identifiers/status). Compact notification text required for delivery is processed transiently and is never stored by our push backend. See our privacy policy for full details. LimitWatch works with Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Google Gemini CLI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Droid (Factory), OpenCode, and more. The Mac companion app (free) installs lightweight hooks into your AI tools, syncs canonical data through iCloud, and delivers compact realtime alerts through APNs. Free tier includes basic monitoring for one source. Upgrade to Lite for the full mobile experience, or Pro for unlimited sources, session archive, automation, and export tools.

DevFob puts your Mac's Claude Code sessions on your iPhone — and your Apple Watch. Claude Code runs on your Mac. DevFob lets you watch every session and answer it from anywhere, so a long run never stalls waiting on a prompt you didn't see. • See every session live — running, idle, or needs-you-now. • Answer permission prompts (Allow / Deny) and multiple-choice questions from your iPhone or Apple Watch. • Send a quick instruction or reply without walking back to the Mac. • Resume an interrupted session. • Switch your Mac's operating mode. • Glance at your Claude usage (5-hour and weekly windows). Built for trust: • End-to-end encrypted. Pair your iPhone to your Mac with a one-time code; every command is sealed, so the relay only ever sees ciphertext. • No account, no tracking. It talks to your own Mac, not to us. • The Apple Watch app mirrors your iPhone, so the watch never holds your Mac's keys. DevFob requires the DevFob host running on your Mac (devfob.com).
