Murmur BLE Shell
Read full descriptionHide full description
murmur turns your phone into a remote control for a Raspberry Pi β no Wi-Fi, no network setup, no port forwarding. Just Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), directly between your phone and the Pi. HOW IT WORKS Install the open-source murmur daemon on any Raspberry Pi running Linux, pair your phone with it over Bluetooth, and you get: β’ Shell mode β a real interactive terminal on the Pi, right from your phone. β’ Agent mode β describe what you want in plain English ("what's eating my disk space?", "set up a static IP") and an AI agent plans and runs the shell commands for you, showing every command and its output as it goes. BRING YOUR OWN API KEY Agent mode is powered by your own Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, or Google Gemini API key β entered once in Settings, stored only in your phone's secure keychain. murmur has no backend server and no account system. The only network calls it makes are the LLM requests you trigger yourself, using your own key. WORKS OFFLINE ON THE PI SIDE The Raspberry Pi never needs an internet connection. It just needs Bluetooth and the murmur daemon running. Good for headless boxes, home labs, and devices you'd rather not put on a network at all. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Everything murmur stores β the Bluetooth pairing key, your API key, an optional per-device sudo password, and saved agent conversations β stays on your phone in the OS-level secure store. One tap in Settings wipes it all. OPEN SOURCE Both the daemon and the app are open source: github.com/nekonihq/murmur

Moku is the remote workspace for AI coding agents. Monitor, manage, and resume Claude Code, Codex, Herdr panes, and more from one app on your iPhone or iPad. ALL YOUR AGENTS. ONE APP. Watch active Herdr panes, see what each agent is doing, and take over when it needs input. Moku also discovers projects and sessions from 12+ AI coding CLIs, including Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Qoder, Trae, Kimi, and Grok, and keeps everything organized by project. Supported sessions resume in one tap inside a real terminal. No digging through shell history or hunting session IDs. ROAM WITH MOSH The custom Rust terminal core parses ANSI at 28 MB/s and handles a 10 MiB output burst at 35 MB/s in our benchmark harness. Native Mosh keeps sessions alive through Wi-Fi/cellular handoffs and screen locks. You can also discover and reattach remote screen/tty sessions. NO PUBLIC IP? NO PROBLEM Built-in zero-config Tailcat private networking: run one command on the host, paste the token into Moku, and establish an encrypted connection without port forwarding, router configuration, or root. A FULL SERVER TOOLBOX Fast SFTP file manager and code editor, live CPU/memory/disk/network telemetry, Docker container management, process and systemd control, and command snippets. LIVE ACTIVITIES & DYNAMIC ISLAND Check agent progress from your lock screen or Dynamic Island without reopening the app. LOCAL-FIRST AND PRIVATE Hosts, passwords, and SSH keys are encrypted on your device. No ads, no behavioral analytics SDKs, and no Moku account is required for core SSH workflows. AI features connect directly to the API endpoint you configure. Free to download. Everything shipping today stays free forever; Pro unlocks new advanced features. A small pixel soot sprite named Soot keeps you company during late-night debugging.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Murmur BLE Shell at none against Moku's 3. Moku's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
