I’ve been using Codex from my phone for the past couple of months (through a tunnel, not this app). I was initially quite excited, but I’ve found the results are less than great compared to being at a keyboard. Something about the smaller screen size and/or lack of keyboard causes me to direct the agent less, which in turn creates more tech debt/code churn/etc. Maybe I’m just showing my age, and I should practice voi…

Wispr flow cuts out ums. I love it

Whats crazier is that Codex is free. I thought I had to pay to even try it out but nope, you can use the desktop app or cli for free, its apparently included in the free plan. You just have to sign in to your ChatGPT account. Of course I am aware that the caveat here is that all my interaction is part of training, but I’m fine with that. Even Qwen Cli discontinued the free plan.

Can’t you just turn off training on your data in the settings?

Dang, I thought this was going to be integration for Codex Cloud, not the (still not available for Linux) Codex App. Not even Codex CLI, alas. You can still access the Cloud option from a mobile browser well enough but I prefer an app UI for poking at the things on the go.

Codex Cloud has been in the chatgpt app for quite some time now. If you click out of the new dialogs then you can access your cloud threads

the main thing is functionality, you can always work around the ergonomics

Say what you want about OpenAI, but their software is actually pretty dam good especially compared to Anthropic and Google. Anthropic is just sloppy, and Google just doesn't live on this planet. Both of the Codex apps are very good. I tried this out and it works significantly better than Claude's remote control in fact the first few times I tried Claude's remote control it didn't even work and to this day is very bug…

I use remote-control every day and haven't had many issues with it, aside from the fact that the mobile app being pretty limited, e.g there are no prompt suggestions like slash commands and skills, everything in the textbox is just a raw string. You also can’t start a new session directly from the app (have to SSH into the host manually to do that)

Other than those limitations, the connection has been very stable for me, definitely more reliable than alternatives like happy.engineering or Omnara. What’s been buggy for you specifically?

Is there a native way to work remotely with Claude/Codex on a local folder or git repo on your main machine without having to connect it to GitHub? For creating apps for personal use I’d rather just keep the files local. Edit: Running into issues setting it up on Windows. There's no "/remote-control" command in the CLI, so I installed the Windows Codex app. Then I updated the iOS app which now has the "Codex" feature…

You can run Codex and Claude on mobile from https://github.com/happier-dev/happier
