About

Mobile IDE for Claude Code AI

Features
Read full description

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.
