Continuum turns your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch into a remote control for the command-line coding agents running on your own Mac. CODE - drive your agents from anywhere Start, monitor, and steer coding sessions running on your paired Mac. Review diffs and pull requests, approve plans, watch live terminals, and reply by voice. Step away from your desk without losing the thread. ANALYTICS - never get surprised by a limit Live rate-limit gauges show how much of your 5-hour and weekly allowances you have used. Historical token and cost analytics break your spend down by project and by model, with Apple Watch complications that put it on your wrist. WHY CONTINUUM - Pairs with your Mac. The Continuum Mac app does the heavy lifting and streams securely to your iPhone and Watch over your own network. - Local-first. Your prompts, code, and logs stay on your devices. - Built for developers who live in the terminal. HOW IT WORKS Continuum is a client. It does not host or resell any AI model. It reads the session and usage files that the developer tools already installed on your Mac write to disk, and it relays your input to those tools. You sign in to each tool with your own account or API key, obtained and paid for directly from that provider. Continuum shows you what you are already running. ACCOUNTS Continuum is free to download and free to use with your own provider accounts. An optional Continuum account keeps your workspace in sync across your devices. CONTINUUM PLUS SUBSCRIPTION Continuum Plus is an optional auto-renewable subscription that includes $25 of hosted AI usage every week, on every device. Every feature described above works without it. - Continuum Plus - $19.99 per month, 1 month duration, auto-renewing. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically for the same period and price unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple Account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renew in your Apple Account settings after purchase.

Supermux

Supermux is a native remote client for the Supermux broker you run on your own computer. Pair your iPhone or iPad to your machine and drive your AI coding agents โ€” Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode โ€” from anywhere. It works like an SSH or remote-terminal client: every command and agent action runs on your own computer, and your phone sends input and shows the results. Nothing runs on the device, and your code and credentials never leave your machine. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Watch and steer agent sessions in real time: approve steps, redirect, or jump in - Run multiple sessions at once and switch between them - Use the built-in terminal and code editor on the go - Reply by voice: speech is transcribed on-device into editable text - Start new sessions, pick a project, and create or clone repos - Pair in seconds by scanning the QR code your broker prints HOW IT WORKS Supermux connects to a broker that you host on your own computer, over your local network or a private mesh like Tailscale. You bring your own machine and your own agent subscriptions โ€” there is nothing to buy in the app. Requires a running Supermux broker. Learn how to set one up at supermux.dev.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Supermux at none against Continuum's 1. Supermux also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). Continuum's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
