About

iTmux

Features
Read full description

iTmux is a native SSH and tmux workspace for iPhone, iPad and Mac, built for developers who run AI coding agents on their own machines. Start a long task with Claude Code or Codex on your server, close the app, and come back later: the agent keeps working inside tmux, and iTmux shows you where it stands. NATIVE TMUX, NOT A TERMINAL INSIDE A TERMINAL iTmux talks to tmux through control mode, so sessions, windows and split panes appear as real app UI. Switch, split and zoom panes with a tap instead of prefix keys. Your processes live on the host, so a dropped connection never kills your work. FOLLOW YOUR AI AGENTS • See which Claude Code and Codex tasks are working, waiting or done • Get a notification when a task needs your approval • Queue the next prompts for each pane and let them run in order • Browse task history with prompts, duration and results • Check token usage, plan limits and reset times per host A COMPLETE REMOTE TOOLKIT • SSH with password or key authentication, stored in the Keychain • Local tmux on Mac, remote hosts on every device • File browser with search, text editing, image preview and SFTP transfer • Upload photos from your library straight to the server (iPhone and iPad) • Git: status, history, side-by-side diffs, stage, commit and sync • Markdown notes stored on the host • Host monitor with CPU, memory and top processes • Search terminal output, custom shortcuts and command queues • Voice input that types your prompt into the terminal MADE FOR EACH DEVICE A touch-friendly key bar with Esc, Ctrl, Tab and arrows on iPhone, a sidebar layout on iPad, and tabs you can tear off into windows on Mac. On Mac, the itmux command line tool opens any command in a new tmux window. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account required. Hosts, passwords and keys stay on your device, and connections go directly from your device to your servers. Your terminal content, files and notes are never sent to us. ITMUX PRO iTmux is free to use with one saved host. iTmux Pro unlocks unlimited hosts, voice input and scheduled shortcuts, and works on iPhone, iPad and Mac. • Subscriptions: iTmux Pro Monthly (1 month) and iTmux Pro Yearly (1 year) • Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase • Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period • Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings REQUIREMENTS iOS/iPadOS 18 or later, macOS 15 or later on Apple silicon. Remote hosts need SSH access and tmux. Claude Code and Codex run on your host and need their own accounts.
